Its a gauntlet of 2 squads of 3, one from DC one from Marvel working their way through 4 bosses. First boss is Atrocitus, Second Dr. Doom, Third Venom, and Fourth Braniac. DC squad is comprised of Wonder Woman, Hawkman, and Nightwing. The Marvel squad consists of Thor, Wolverine, and Black Panther. Both squads made it to the final round against Braniac, where only have 3 on the team hinders DC and eliminates them. While the 3 man Marvel squad thrives in such conditions and makes it through all 4 bosses.
