Archelon stepped forward first, wanting to leave a good impression. He span around in his shell and slammed into Parasite! But he resisted the hit and took no damage at all!

Superman flew in and froze Parasite with his Frost Breath!

Parasite heated up his body with radioactive power and broke free of the ice!

Parasite grabbed Archelon and absorbed his powers! He began to grow thick, tortoise shell scutes all over his body, gaining much higher defenses!

Archelon sent a Pyro-Wave at Parasite using his sword! But the wave had no affect against Parasite's new set of armor!

Superman uppercutted Parasite, knocking him up and bringing him back down into a crater!

Brainiac asked us all to stand back as he walked towards Parasite with his hands behind his back!

Alexandra put away her gun, trusting Brainiac.

Parasite swiped at Brainiac who dodged the blows gracefully, predicting each attack.

Archelon threw himself shell-first at Parasite! Superman followed up with a laser blast!

Brainiac punched Parasite's femur doing a considerable amount of damage!

"By standing in such a stance, it would appear that the femur is Parasite's weakness," Brainiac revealed. Brainiac brought Parasite down to one knee!

Alexandra got out her handgun once again and shot the other femur, forcing Parasite down onto both knees!

Brainiac began to closely analyze Parasite's every move!

Parasite struck for Superman, only to be effectively countered as Brainiac predicted the move!

Archelon slashed with his sword but it bounced right off!

Superman lasered Parasite's femur!

"Aim for his femur!" Brainiac yelled out. "His muscles there are disabled while he uses special moves!"

Alexandra called for backup with her radio comms.

Parasite then created a gigantic portal above the city using the stolen magic from Doorman.

"What do we do?" I asked Superman.

"Keep him busy!" Superman yelled as he flew off!

Brainiac stepped back to analyze Parasite once again!

Alexandra's call for backup was answered as Martian Manhunter joined the battle and began to read Parasite's mind which was full of rage!

Martian Manhunter was.. as the name suggested, a Manhunter who was a Martian, his skin a vibrant green. He wore a royal blue cape and his own golden-buttoned hero outfit.

The portal began to act like a black hole, sucking up skyscrapers from the city!

"Oh no!" I yelled.

Archelon grabbed a piece of a building and threw it at Parasite's Femurs!

A Critical hit!

Superman returned with Doorman who quickly closed the giant portal causing all the chaos!

"You have my powers but I have mastered them," Doorman said to parasite.

"Water. Hit him with water!" Brainiac uncovered a new weakness during his analysis!

Alexandra tried to kick Parasite's femur but she twisted her foot on the tortoise-scute armor!

Martian Manhunter shapeshifted into Superman and heat visioned Parasite's femur, cutting through the armor!
