Plot
A theater show is being held in a small town of Mexico. The show is about a hero (played by narcissistic arrogant actor Armando Monteiro) battling against a villain (played by unhappy and poorly paid actor Millo Chaves) for his love interest (played by the more selfless and kind-hearted actress Esperanza Del Rey). However, when the actors are being presented, Millo is nowhere to be found; three of Monteiro's acquaintances had pranked him and entrapped him in a cave nearby. The three eventually go to the cave and free Millo. But again, Millo is missing and e three are suddenly scared away by a pack of wolves which chase them all over the town. And, in the top of a building, Millo, who had been turned into a werewolf-like creature, is shown howling for the Moon.

In a small flashback set three hours ago, Millo was sitting in the cave sorrowfully remembering news about the death of his family by the hands of Vandal Savage at the same moment Ronnie Raymond was killed. Among all of his unhappy memories, including most of his fellow actors who bullied him for his role in the show, he thought about his only happy one: Esperanza, who was the only person on Mexico who ever loved him. Just then, Millo spotted a small Wolf-based totem in the end of the cave. Right after he touched it, Millo fell victim of a curse: he was now a half-human half-wolf metahuman. Using his newly discovered powers, he managed to escape the cave in his own. In present day, Batman and Flash are battling Bane and his terroristic crew in Central City. Right after defeating the villain, Batman and Flash discover that Bane had been brainwashed by his rival organisation Kobra, who had stolen both Bane's formulas and Project Cadmus technology and are holding their plans on Mexico.

Meanwhile, Millo is working hard to hide his new look from the town's citizens until they all notice him and, unable to recognise him as the most hated actor in the country's theater and refferingg to him as a "Chupacabra", cheer on him as a celebrity. Esperanza is the only one who recognises Millo, but she still loves him. Terra and her team appear next to him and offer to train him as a hero, on which he accepts and adopts the name "Alpha-Wolf". The Justice League (Batman, Flash, Black Canary and Geo-Force) encounter Steve Trevor and redeemed gang leader Chato Santana a.k.a. El Diablo, who agree to help them deal with Kobra, who are planning to dominate Mexico with an army of Super Soldiers created with Bane's formulas. Alberto Murieta, the greedy director of the theather show, propperly sees Alpha-Wolf as a menancing celebrity rival, secretly uses one of Kobra's formulas he stole from one of the mercenaries and injects it on one of his actors. But his plan backfires when the injected actor goes berserk and starts wreaking havoc in the town, alert both heroes and Kobra.
