- I'm going to be a God again.
Alive! is an episode of season 3 of Justice League Unlimited. It premiered on May 6, 2006.
Synopsis for "Alive!"
Lex Luthor is still trying to revive Brainiac, but is unable to do so due to the small amount of Brainiac remaining. Tala casts a spell on the shard to prove that there is nothing left of Brainiac and convince Luthor to stop obsessing over it, but is surprised to discover remnants of the villain floating in space, left from his battle with Darkseid. Luthor has the Legion's headquarters retrofitted into a spaceship and sets out to find it. However, Tala releases Grodd from his cage and the Legion suddenly finds itself divided between those who are loyal to Grodd and those who side with Luthor. After an intense battle, Luthor gains the upper hand and throws Grodd into deep space. Finding the debris from Brainiac and Darkseid's battle, he uses Tala as an energy converter to revive Brainiac. He is horrified to discover, however, that Darkseid has been resurrected instead. Darkseid rewards them with a quick demise, blowing up their ship, before returning to Apokolips and proclaiming war on Earth. On Earth, Luthor and the Legion arrive at the Metro Tower and inform the Justice League that "We have a problem."

Trivia
The titles of both this episode and the subsequent "Destroyer" are references to two of rock band Kiss' biggest albums.
According to Dwayne McDuffie, Darkseid's revival was a result of Tala, who was used as the living conduit for the resurrection at the cost of her life, tampered with the ritual as a final act of spite towards Luthor.
