Seeing that the man was about to unknowingly commit suicide, the Flash ran over and grabbed the Ghost-man's wrist before he could remove the ring.  "I know you hate the fact that you just killed a man...er, sapient being...but if you remove that ring it will kill you.  The ring damages your blood, but keeps you alive despite that.  The ghost side of you might survive, but as a human you would die."  He paused a few seconds to let that sink in and continued.  "Come with me to our base.  The Blue Lanterns are able to remove the ring without killing the wearer.  We'll call them."

Starfire landed nearby and lifted Grodd's corpse as Wally went to check on Zatana. "I will take his body to his people.  They may wish to give him a proper burial."  With that she flew off towards Africa, carrying the massive body.

"That explains the appearance of a Sinestro Corp member in Gotham." said Batman, stepping out from behind a corner.  "He's a metahuman that somehow managed to brainwash Oracle by just speaking to her.  J'onn is trying to deal with the mental component, but it appears he uses some sort of enhanced Pheromone to break down your mental defenses as well.  We're also dealing with a ghost-possessed man with a red ring and a teenage girl with a green one."  He looked at Deadpool.  "Your White ring and Thanos's black ring means that 5 of the 9 are accounted for."  He turned to walk away, ignoring the fact that Hal wanted to interject something.  "Follow me.  You'll need to be debriefed, especially if you have history with this Thanos."
