==Plot==
==Characters==<!--PLEASE DO NOT ADD OR REMOVE ANY CHARACTERS IN THE ROSTER UNTIL 11 NOVEMBER.-->
Somewhere in space, [[Sinestro]] of the [[Sinestro Corps]], [[Carol Ferris|Star Sapphire]] of the Star Sapphires, [[Atrocitus]] of the [[Red Lantern Corps]], [[Saint Walker]] of the [[Blue Lantern Corps]], [[Larfleeze]] of the Orange Lanterns, and Indigo-1 of the [[Indigo Tribe]] are summoned where they accuse each other of bringing each one to a part of space. When they realized that none of them summoned each other, they approached by [[Brainiac (comics)|Brainiac]]'s forces.

In [[Gotham City]], [[Batman]] and [[Tim Drake|Robin]] are pursuing [[Killer Croc]] after he had broken into the City Records Office. Batman and Robin find Killer Croc and his Croc Henchmen. Killer Croc runs through the sewers where he runs into [[Cheetah (comics)|Cheetah]], [[Firefly (DC Comics)|Firefly]], [[Joker (comics)|Joker]], and [[Solomon Grundy (comics)|Solomon Grundy]]. Killer Croc gives them the sewer maps.

Back at the [[Batcave]], Batman sees through his telescope a spaceship that is approaching Earth. Batman takes Robin's suggestion to contact [[Martian Manhunter]] on the Justice League's communicator to check it out just. [[Alfred Pennyworth]] is pleased that Robin is doing the idea that he suggested to Batman. When Batman looks at the spaceship again, he is mesmerized by a beam shot by it causing him to attack Alfred and Robin. This caused Robin and Alfred to work to snap Batman out of the trance he is in. After Robin used the Bat-Vehicles to get Batman out of the Batmobile, Batman summons a lot of [[bat]]s where the energy controlling Batman ends up using the bats to form a larger Batman figure. Afterwards, Robin tries to get through to Batman which was enough to snap him out of his trance. Batman wonders who was trying to control his mind and why. At the [[Hall of Justice]], [[Hawkman]] arrives where he is ambushed by Cheetah, Firefly, Joker, and Killer Croc. It turns out that Hawkman is actually [[Lex Luthor]] in disguise in a plot to get to the Justice League Watchtower and use it's Binary Fusion Cannon to hold the world ransom and demand that Lex Luthor be made President.

Upon assembling the Bat-Rocket, Batman and Robin head into space. While [[Hal Jordan|Green Lantern]] investigates the spaceship, Martian Manhunter works to hold off Lex Luthor and his villain allies. Firefly traps Martian Manhunter in a ring of fire. Before Lex Luthor can get ahold of the Binary Fusion Cannon, the Justice League Watchtower's computer alerts the entire base of the Bat-Rocket's approach. Joker prepares to take out Batman "old school style." After destroying some Joker Rockets, Batman and Robin lose their respectful vehicles. Before they can be blown up, [[Superman]] arrives and saves them. While Superman gets Robin onto the Justice League's jet, Batman works to find a way in to the Justice League Watchtower with the help of [[Cyborg (comics)|Cyborg]] and [[Flash (Barry Allen)|Flash]].

Once inside the Justice League Watchtower, the Justice League members confront Lex Luthor and his villain allies. Wonder Woman and Flash face off against Firefly and Cheetah. When Cheetah is defeated, Firefly tries to burn Wonder Woman and Flash only for Flash to put out the fires including the ones surrounding Martian Manhunter who proceeds to knock out Firefly while Wonder Woman subdues Cheetah. Robin and Cyborg pursue Killer Croc and Solomon Grundy where Cyborg's Giant Suit subdues Killer Croc and Solomon Grundy. Superman and Batman confront Lex Luthor and Joker where they learn of Lex Luthor's plot with the Watchtower's Binary Fusion Cannon from Joker. Batman and Superman fight their way past LexBots and Joker Henchmen before Lex Luthor shows up in a larger exo-suit. Using his Electric Suit, Batman powers up an EMP device to disable Lex Luthor's exo-suit while Superman subdues Joker. With the villains defeated, the Justice League Watchtower informs everyone present that an unknown object is approaching. Martain Manhunter identifies the object that he sent Green Lantern to investigate. Brainiac contacts the Justice League Watchtowers and introduces himself. Brainiac states that he collects things throught the universe by using his shrink ray to miniaturize cities throughout the galaxy and is now interested in collecting worlds.

It is shown that Brainiac is using the power rings of the captive Green Lantern, Sinestro, Star Sapphire, Atrocitus, Saint Walker, and Larfleeze to power the crystals needed to shrink Earth. Superman does an attempt to stop Brainiac's shrink ray. Lex Luthor states that if Superman fails, they are going to need a Plan B. Batman, Robin, Wonder Woman, Flash, Cyborg, Lex Luthor, Joker, Cheetah, Killer Croc, and Solomon Grundy work together to infiltrate Brainiac's ship in order to rescue Green Lantern and the others from Brainiac. Due to the helmet that Robin was wearing after being regurgitated from Killer Croc, he is unaffected by Brainiac's mind-control and attacks Brainiac to keep him from controlling the heroes and villains present. When Batman, Robin, Joker, and Solomon Grundy take down Brainiac, Superman is shown to be getting close to stopping the shrink ray which causes it to overload. Brainiac then escapes to Earth as the shrink ray's explosion causes Green Lantern and the power ring wielders to disappear where their respectful energies from the [[Emotional spectrum|Emotional Spectrum]] hits each one of the heroes and villains present. Robin watches over everyone present while Batman heads out to catch a falling Superman. They follow his falling to [[Paris]], [[France]] where the impact of his crash collapses the [[Eiffel Tower]]. Meanwhile, Hawkman is in a cage where he gets out of his bonds but is unable to get out of his cage.

When the Justice League Watchtower is heading for the Moon, Green Lantern arrives and uses his power ring form a hand to catch it. Green Lantern then appears on the ship as Martian Manhunter states that they need to locate them. Back on Brainiac's ship, Cyborg tries to land Brainiac's ship in Gotham City. After Superman regains consciousness with Wonder Woman's help, Batman repairs the Eiffel Tower in his own image. After Wonder Woman kicks the Eiffel Tower where it collapses, Superman manages to repair it in the right appearance. Brainiac then arrives where he is now planning to shrink Earth's cities. Brainiac manages to shrink Paris and bottle it as Superman claims the bottle. Then they follow Brainiac to [[London]], [[England]] where he manages to shrink it. Upon Batman claiming the bottle holding London, he, Superman, and Wonder Woman follow Brainiac to [[Pisa]], [[Italy]] where Superman straightens the [[Leaning Tower of Pisa]] until Brainiac's ship leans it back to it's original position and shrinks it. Before leaving, Brainiac leaves vowing that the Justice League won't stop him.

In outer space, Green Lantern fixes the Justice League Watchtower. Afterwards, he and Martian Manhunter are contacted by Batman to help them locate Brainiac. Martian Manhunter states that Brainiac is heading for Gotham City as Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman head there. In Gotham City, Robin, Flash, Cyborg, Lex Luthor, Joker, Cheetah, and Solomon Grundy are confronted by Brainiac. Wonder Woman manages to bring Brainiac's ship down as he unleashes his robot clones while he escapes into his spaceship. Flash was able to create a cage to trap Brainiac's spaceship which will hold it there for awhile while both groups fall back to the Justice League Watchtower.

Back on the Justice League Watchtower, Robin reveals that he has a shard of the crystal used by Brainiac in his plot to shrink Earth. Superman states that he could use the crystals at the [[Fortress of Solitude]] to create a duplicate. Green Lantern suspects that the other power ring wielders were transported back to the source planets of their power rings. When Robin asks how their going to get Atrocitus, Larfleeze, and Sinestro to help, Green Lantern states that they should get ahold of their power batteries where the energies contained should be enough to help. On Nok, Martian Manhunter, Cyborg, and Flash work to repair the power battery of the Indigo Tribe until they are attacked by Indigo-1 and the Indigo Tribepeople. When the Indigo Tribe's power battery is repaired, Indigo-1 agrees to help the Justice League. On Odym, Martian Manhunter, Cyborg, and Flash answer a distress beacon from Saint Walker where he mentions that Odym is being invaded by [[Reach (comics)|Reach]] dropships. Upon disabling the Reach Mothership, Martian Manhunter, Cyborg, and Flash rescue Saint Walker and help defend the Blue Lantern power battery. Saint Walker agrees to help the Justice League. On Okaara, Green Lantern, Solomon Grundy, Batman (who is disguised as Joker), Robin (who is disguised as Joker), and Wonder Woman (who is disguised as Cheetah) make plans to distract Larfleeze. When Larfleeze and his Orange Lantern constructs are defeated, Green Lantern creates a construct of himself so that he can steal the Orange Lantern power battery. On Zamaron, Martian Manhunter, Cyborg, and Flash are attacked by the Soldier Sapphires. Afterwards, Star Sapphire agrees to help the Justice League.

At the Fortress of Solitude, Superman, Joker (who is dressed as Batman), Lex Luthor (who is dressed as Wonder Woman), Cheetah (who is dressed as Robin), Firefly, and Killer Croc arrive as Superman works to compact the crystal samples into the right structure needed to undo the effects of Brainiac's shrink ray. On Ysmault, Green Lantern, Solomon Grundy, Batman, Robin, and Wonder Woman fight the Red Lantern Corps. While Batman, Robin, Wonder Woman, and Solomon Grundy use their disguises to convince Atrocitus into "helping to conquer Earth," Green Lantern sneaks away to get close to the Red Lantern power battery. As Brainiac works on getting his spaceship free of it's cage, Hawkman tries to get free from his cage with his actions unnoticed by the cleaning group upstairs. On [[Qward]], Sinestro appears on the Justice League ship where he is not fooled by the act by Green Lantern's group resulting in Green Lantern taking Sinestro off the ship. After Batman, Robin, and Wonder Woman shed their disguises near the Sinestro Corps power battery, Sinestro traps Green Lantern in a marionette. Upon pretending to be afraid, Batman claims the Sinestro Corps power battery. Upon Green Lantern's group retreating, Larfleeze and Atrocitus arrive prompting them and Sinestro to go after them.

Martian Manhunter, Flash, Cyborg, Saint Walker, Indigo-1, and Star Sapphire arrive at the Fortress of Solitude. Green Lantern's group also arrives just as Sinestro, Larfleeze, and Atrocitus catch up. Upon the Justice League getting the rest of the Lanterns to focus their energy towards the crystal, Earth is restored to it's normal size, the different Lanterns disappear, and the energies from the Emotional Spectrum disappear from it's victims. The villains then leave as Flash goes to check on Brainiac. Flash returns and reports that Brainiac's ship has gotten free. Brainiac arrives at the Fortress of Solitude in his ship where he reveals that he had taken Gotham City and [[Metropolis (comics)|Metropolis]] on his way to the Fortress of Solitude. Superman suddenly grows in size as Brainiac mind-controls him. After Batman uses a speech to break Brainiac's mind-control, Superman manages to stop Brainiac and obtain the shrink ray that is needed to restore Superman and the cities to their rightful sizes. The Justice League then leaves the Fortress of Solitude with Brainiac as their prisoner. The cities of the worlds have been restored to their rightful sizes.

At the White House, Lex Luthor is enjoying being President with his villain allies present until the Justice League arrives. With the villains arrested, Lex Luthor and Joker are sharing the same cell with a shrunken Brainiac. They end up shaking the jar Brainiac is in until they accidentally shatter it and he is restored to normal size causing Lex Luthor and Joker to cower at Brainiac. While a cleaning group is handling the Hall of Justice, Hawkman is wondering if someone has called his wife. Sinestro vows to destroy the Earthlings as he bumps into Wonder Woman's Invisible Jet which takes off on it's own. At the Justice League Watchtower, [[Aquaman]], [[Black Canary]], [[Booster Gold]], [[Green Arrow]], [[Captain Marvel (DC Comics)|Shazam]], and [[Swamp Thing]] arrive.

During the credits, Batman and Robin are doing their Bat-Climb as they pass windows containing [[Adam West]], Aquaman, Bat-Cow, [[Conan O'Brien]], Green Arrow, [[Duck Dodgers|Green Loontern]], [[Harley Quinn]], [[Joker (comics)|Joker]] (who is being attacked by a [[shark]]), [[Kevin Smith]], [[Mister Mxyzptlk]], and a [[Tyrannosaurus]].

Premise

Following the events of Lego Batman 2: DC Super Heroes, Brainiac uses the powers of the Rings of each Lantern Corps to take over the universe by shrinking planets to add to his collection. In pursuit of the Legion of Doom, Batman and the Justice League must travel into the far reaches of outer space to stop them.[2]

Plot

Somewhere in space, Sinestro of the Sinestro Corps, Star Sapphire of the Star Sapphires, Atrocitus of the Red Lantern Corps, Saint Walker of the Blue Lantern Corps, Larfleeze of the Orange Lanterns, and Indigo-1 of the Indigo Tribe are summoned where they accuse each other of bringing each one to a part of space. When they realized that none of them summoned each other, they approached by Brainiac's forces.

In Gotham City, Batman and Robin are pursuing Killer Croc after he had broken into the City Records Office. Batman and Robin find Killer Croc and his Croc Henchmen. Killer Croc runs through the sewers where he runs into Cheetah, Firefly, Joker, and Solomon Grundy. Killer Croc gives them the sewer maps.

Back at the Batcave, Batman sees through his telescope a spaceship that is approaching Earth. Batman takes Robin's suggestion to contact Martian Manhunter on the Justice League's communicator to check it out just. Alfred Pennyworth is pleased that Robin is doing the idea that he suggested to Batman. When Batman looks at the spaceship again, he is mesmerized by a beam shot by it causing him to attack Alfred and Robin. This caused Robin and Alfred to work to snap Batman out of the trance he is in. After Robin used the Bat-Vehicles to get Batman out of the Batmobile, Batman summons a lot of bats where the energy controlling Batman ends up using the bats to form a larger Batman figure. Afterwards, Robin tries to get through to Batman which was enough to snap him out of his trance. Batman wonders who was trying to control his mind and why. At the Hall of Justice, Hawkman arrives where he is ambushed by Cheetah, Firefly, Joker, and Killer Croc. It turns out that Hawkman is actually Lex Luthor in disguise in a plot to get to the Justice League Watchtower and use it's Binary Fusion Cannon to hold the world ransom and demand that Lex Luthor be made President.

Upon assembling the Bat-Rocket, Batman and Robin head into space. While Green Lantern investigates the spaceship, Martian Manhunter works to hold off Lex Luthor and his villain allies. Firefly traps Martian Manhunter in a ring of fire. Before Lex Luthor can get ahold of the Binary Fusion Cannon, the Justice League Watchtower's computer alerts the entire base of the Bat-Rocket's approach. Joker prepares to take out Batman "old school style." After destroying some Joker Rockets, Batman and Robin lose their respectful vehicles. Before they can be blown up, Superman arrives and saves them. While Superman gets Robin onto the Justice League's jet, Batman works to find a way in to the Justice League Watchtower with the help of Cyborg and Flash.

Once inside the Justice League Watchtower, the Justice League members confront Lex Luthor and his villain allies. Wonder Woman and Flash face off against Firefly and Cheetah. When Cheetah is defeated, Firefly tries to burn Wonder Woman and Flash only for Flash to put out the fires including the ones surrounding Martian Manhunter who proceeds to knock out Firefly while Wonder Woman subdues Cheetah.
