10 Times Supervillains Fought The WRONG Hero

Albert Davis was a wealthy occultist from Star City who lost his mind when his family was killed by carjackers. To ensure no one would ever suffer a similar tragedy, Davis vowed to perform a magical spell that would cease all crimes in the city. He hired the Riddler to acquire key artefacts to conduct the ritual and paid the bowler-wearing supervillain for his services with an atomic bomb.

The Riddler then demanded the mayor of Star City to give him $100 million or he would use his nuke to blow the city sky-high. While Green Arrow and the other superheroes of Star City were distracted by the enigmatic madman's antics, Davis had ample time to prepare his crime-cancelling ritual.

Upon completing the spell, Star City was sealed in an impenetrable dome, which deactivated all technology (including the Riddler's bomb). Worst of all, the city was then swamped by fiery demons who punished criminals for the mildest felony with lethal force. When Green Arrow learned the dome would increase in size until it sealed the entire world, he created a rag-tag team to track down Davis to make him reverse the spell.
