Eddie stares at the TV, eyes wide and mouth agape. He takes his communicator and calls the rest of the Titans South.

"Guys, it's Devil. There's a giant robot Lyndon B. Johnson attacking downtown and I think we should do something about it."

"Anyone else I'd accuse of making that up, but these sort of things just find you, don't they, Eddie?"

Zachary appears, teleporting into the room.

"Go slow it down!" Gear declares. "I should be able to toss together something that can short it out." He turns to rush towards his lab, then stops.

"Wait... did you say robot... Lyndon B.... Johnson...?"

"That's what I said." Eddie replies as his tail creates a portal to downtown Austin. He steps on through and immediately dodges some flying rubble. He looks up to see the giant robot stomp past him and down the street.

"Whoa. He's a lot taller in person."

Every so often, a cross country flight did a person a world of good. It was doing so for Captain Marvel Junior right now. He swooped low as he flew over Austin, only to see...

A giant robot president?

"Tell me I'm seeing things," he muttered to himself.

The giant robot Lyndon B. Johnson continues its rampage, stomping past police blockades and shrugging off any bullets. The authorities are helpless to stop it. The mayor squirms in the robots hand as bullets fly past him.

"Stop shooting!" He yells down. "Get me down from here first! Weren't there supposed to be some new superheroes that just moved here?"

Okay, he had to do this just right. Freddy took a deep breath and concentrated on listening to the Wisdom of Solomon.

He flew toward the robot, fists at the ready.

The robot turns its head around 180 degrees and fires its lasers at the hero in blue.
