Synopsis:
An inventor’s Cyberniray, a device that enables the user to control the wills of others, falls into the hands of Pete Ricketts, a small-time crook. When a group of underworld leaders offers a million-dollar reward for the elimination of the Justice League, Ricketts uses the ray-gun to capture them. He then auctions off the services of the various members to the crime chiefs, who send the heroes to rob some of the same targets as a test of their comparative abilities.
Flash and Green Lantern battle over jewels which both have been ordered to steal; Aquaman and Green Arrow match wits to rob a gambling ship; and Wonder Woman fights J’onn J’onzz over the theft of a radium shipment. Meanwhile, Snapper Carr, discovering the heroes’ plight, borrows the anti-gravity discs of Dr. Destiny from the Souvenir Room and saves the various treasures so that none of the heroes succeeds in his attempted crime. Alerted to their locations when they signal him on each other’s signal devices, Snapper frees the members from the influence of the Cyberniray, enabling them to help each other escape from the death-traps devised by the gangsters.
