Back in Frisco, J'onn meets the angel, Zauriel, who requested to be made mortal. But other angels, in the service of very bad and very powerful angel Asmodel, attack--they are handled with little difficulty, but Neron, who is responsible for the malfunctioning teleporter on the moon, lets a couple of demons start pushing the moon into the earth. And Asmodel is preparing to visit earth in his giant chariot/spaceship to kick-start the Apocalypse...

Cool Moments!
