Justice League: Gods and Monsters Page #2

That's upstate, Will,

not my jurisdiction.

Since when does the Justice League have

a jurisdiction? Come on, Kirk, it's Ray!

I'll check into it, but it's not going

to win me any friends with the local cops.

So? People don't like you anyway.

Good point.

One more micro booster

and I could take out a tank.

- Now will you tell me?

- I told you everything.

Come on, Dad, what was he like?

What'd he say?

He was tall.

Oh, jeez, I know what he looks like.

Weren't you freaked? He's a killer alien.

Dude could have probably hurt you

just by looking at you real hard.

He was very matter-of-fact.

He said he had a job for me.

- And I'm doing it.

- Which is?

Can't say.

But I did see Wonder Woman.

Tell me, tell me!

And don't say she was tall.

She was...

What the hell's that?

Run!

Go!

Oh, sh*t!

So what brings the Feds?

Mr. Stone worked for the military,

Ms. Lane. This is purely routine.

That a fact?

I want to look around.

I don't suppose I could dissuade you.

This is a crime scene.

I won't touch a thing.

Your boyfriend has a lot of nerve.

He's not my boyfriend. And yes, he does.

Dios mio.

Only the police are allowed

beyond the yellow tape, Ms. Lane.

I don't see your badge.

Good one. Think your logic

will persuade this guy?

- Yeah.

- Stone isn't our only dead scientist.

How fast can you get back here?

This is Victor Fries,

the thermal expert.

Nobel and Kyoto prizes.

He was measuring atmospheric carbon levels

near the Arctic Circle three days ago.

They found his body

at the bottom of a ravine.

It wasn't the fall

that killed him, though.

His carotid artery was severed,

presumably by the ice

he hit on the way down.

- He bled to death.

- Yes, except they can't find the blood.

There should've been a pool

of frozen blood around the neck,

maybe as much as a half quart.

It's not there.

This is Ray Palmer's truck.

It was found a couple of days ago

at the bottom of a hill.

It appears to have been sliced up.

But that's not the most

intriguing damage.

A boot print,

as if the truck was kicked.

The size is rather diminutive

and has a pronounced heel.

- A woman.

- So it would seem.

They haven't found Palmer's body yet,

but no one's expecting him

to show up at the office.

And here's where you just came from.

What remains of Stone's lab.

I put it through some filters.

The streaks in spotting are hot spots

where the fire started.

It's as if someone went through

Stone's lab with a pair of blow torches.

- Or heat vision.

- Yes, I thought that might occur to you.

We're being framed. Someone's actually

trying to frame the Justice League.

Who would have the balls?

It's not going to be long before
