Plot:
The story begins when Superman, Wonder Woman, and The United Nations form a pact, which brings out world peace, after Lex Luthor is arrested. Through this pact, the world is in a peaceful state, and all is calm.

Batman, meanwhile, had been investigating something that he and Superman overlooked during the fight in the events of Man of Steel: Shadow of the Bat: one of Luthor's contacts, who is implied to have had helped Luthor escape Stryker's island earlier that month. Batman manages to find recorded messages from them, and is unable to decode the messages, as they are "recorded in an unknown frequency". The only lead he has is in a Government Base in Nevada.

Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman search the secret government base in Nevada, and discover something very strange. what they discover is a strange alien creature, calling himself J'onn J'onzz. he telepathically summoned them to his cell in the base. He explains that Lex Luthor is the one leading the White Martians, who have wiped out his own race millennia ago, to Earth, so he and the evil Martians can decimate the world, and revamp it in their own image.

Suddenly, an armada of ships attack nearby, destroying the base, after an alarm that J'onn triggered goes off. The four fight valiantly, and are joined by Green Lantern, the Flash, and Aquaman, who uses his hydrokinetic powers to destroy several squadrons of ground forces of these massive aliens. Green Lantern has little difficulty with either the ground forces or the ships, as he had previously fought manhunters and defeated them single-handedly. It is revealed that J'onn, whom Flash nicknames "Martian Manhunter", telepathically summoned the three heroes to help them fight the White Martian ships.

The group gathers in Superman's Fortress of solitude, and discuss where the next attack might be. They have been able to pinpoint that it might be in three choices: Metropolis, Gotham, and Starling City. It is confirmed, out of those three, that Gotham is the one that the White Martians will attack.

The team fights back, and are able to kill many waves of White Martian forces, but the army of the Martians is infinite. Meanwhile, Superman finds Lex Luthor, and the two battle through Metropolis. Lex is killed by a blast from a sub-orbital Martian Drop-ship, and that ship is piloted by the leader of the White Martians. Batman, aided by Lantern and J'onn, is able to go through the ships, into the atmosphere, and finds the Drop-ship, where they meet the lead Martian, who had used Lex as a bridge to get to earth, and killing him after Luthor had failed. After a long and epic battle, the three are able to destroy the lead Martian, and save mankind.

Bruce Wayne helps rebuild the damage after the destruction of the city. The Justice League officially forms as a Goverment-approved team.
