Synopsis[]
The Elongated Man and Sue Dibny are in Paris, France preparing for the Pan-European Economic Conference. Along the way, Ralph prevents the assassin Copperhead from murdering an important French finance minister. He nearly captures the villain, but suddenly Warp appears and transports Copperhead to safety.
That night, Ralph and Sue attend the conference. As they mingle amongst Europe's most important financial leaders, Sue has a chance encounter with Bito Wladon, the Archduke of Modora. Neither Ralph nor Sue realize that Bito is also the costumed criminal known as Sonar. Sonar flirts with Sue, but angers her by questioning her true feelings towards her husband.
Meanwhile, a strange super-powered terrorist named L'Escargot raids the conference and kills the French ambassador. Ralph springs into action, but Sonar stops L'Escargot's rampage with undulating waves of sonic force.
That evening, Ralph and Sue retire to their hotel rooms. Sue is disturbed by some of Bito's comments concerning her marriage, and Ralph and she get into an argument. They finally make peace with one another, with Ralph asking what will make her feel better. Sue tells him that she wants to go to Sonar's kingdom Modora.
