EPISODE 42: Superman Strength + Superman Adventures The Last Sons read and discuss the Superman: Strength mini plus the popular Superman Adventures #41, requested by Super listener Patrick D. Ryall! It's a surprise for the Last Sons and one which isn't a bad thing! Hidden gem worthy of more mention - tune in to hear all the discussion! SYNOPSIS: (courtesy of Connor-El & Wiki) PART 1 A criminal named Fido and his gang are speculating on the origin of Superman and plotting how to deal with him. They send a dupe to rob a bank to test how fast Superman reacts, while Fido reveals his Super-criminal father claimed to have broken Supermans arm, and told him Superman was raised by the metropolis elite with a silver spoon in his mouth never having to struggle, hence his strict moral compass. Meanwhile Superman overhears them and warns them not to plot anything, and leaves. Lois picks up Clark and Pa Kent and over dinner Pa starts to tell a story from Clarks childhood about his first time to a city. In the past with Clark present Pa stole some candy from a crooked clerk overcharging people in need and gave some to clark, tellin him some rules can be broken. Later during a solar eclipse Clark sees a city in the distance and runs to it. Meanwhile Fidos gang creates a series of disasters from fires to blowing up a bridge, to hold Superman off while they break into lex corps to steal his old invention, a pair of gloves that can create dimensional portals. Superman eventually catches up with them and FIdo lures him through the portal, severing at the neck and coming into possession of the head of Superman! PART 2 Jonathan Kent recalls an incident when Clark was ten-years-old and a solar eclipse caused his innate Kryptonian powers to briefly manifest before they should have. Clark ran from Smallville to Chicago in under an hour and found himself embroiled in a brewing conflict between two rival members which resulted in both of their detahs. In the present, Superman is suffering from a laboratory experiment malfunction in which his head has been displaced through a dimensional portal. A former scientist named John "Fido" Pollock has the head and plans on using it as leverage in order to gain favor with Lex Luthor. This is complicated by a series of disasters happening nearby, Superman pleads with Fido to release him to save them, promising he will come back. Fido complies and lets Superman go, superman rescues everyone he can but a child dies in the process. After Supermans return, Fido and his cronies bring Superman's head to Luthor's office and offers him a demonstration of his Trans-Locational Portal gloves. Luthor is unimpressed until Pollock also reveals that he has another invention that can alter the size ratio of volumes of matter and threatens to use this technology to destroy Metropolis. A fire fight breaks out between Fido's thugs and Luthors' security team. A pile of debris falls through the spatial portal and giant-sized coins, paperclips and batteries begin raining down on Metropolis. Luthor frees Superman so that he can save the city. PART 3 Thanks to the efforts of criminal inventor John "Fido" Pollock, a wave of giant-sized pocket debris begins raining down on Metropolis. Superman flies out and deflects giant coins, fountain pens and paperclips from smashing through the city. At Lexcorp Tower, Fido and his crew use their trans-locational gloves to escape before Luthor's security team can gun them down. They stop at another LexCorp facility to hijack a NASA hovercraft. Lois Lane is present and tries to sneak on board, but Fido captures her and uses her tech to shrink her down in size. Superman arrives at the facility and his father, Jonathan Kent, tells him that the bandits have kidnapped Lois. Superman then takes off and flies after them. He traces the crew to Cairo, Egypt. Fido comes up with another idea. Using the Trans-Locational Portal, he locates the imprisoned Metallo and steals a small piece of Kryptonite from his chest cavity. He intends on using to subdue Superman. When they realize that Superman is in range, they scramble into the hovercraft leaving behind one of their own, Hopper. They open a dimensional portal to Chicago, but Superman is fast enough to follow them into the portal. They zigzag through the city, but eventually the Jet-Car runs out of fuel. By this point, Fido's cronies realize that there is no escape and they abandon him. While Superman rounds up henchpeople Trudy and Sulley, Fido hijacks a pick-up truck. Superman bears down on him, but Fido temporarily blinds him with one of the hi-tech weapons they stole from LexCorp. Superman shakes off the effects, but Fido has one more ace up his sleeve. He enlarges the Kryptonite pebble he stole from Metallo and uses it to pin Superman to the ground. While Fido is boasting about his supposed conquest, Lois escapes from the vial she was trapped in and uses Fido's Scaling Gloves to return to normal size. She then uses the same gloves to reduce the Kryptonite block back to pebble size. Through the course of this, Superman learns that Fido has always lived in the shadow of his abusive father, Frank "Pit Bull" Pollock – a man who once claimed to have broken Superman's arm in combat. Superman slightly recalls the event, and tells Fido that his father never bested him, and certainly never broke his arm. Fido knows that Superman would never lie, and the sudden revelation drives him into a fury. He unloads on Superman with every weapon at his disposal, but they do no good. Once his arsenal is spent, Fido collapses to the ground and Superman takes him into custody.

On the Show John Michael Beck Taylor, commonly known as Michael Beck, is an American actor, known for his role as Swan in the 1979 film The Warriors, and as Sonny Malone in Xanadu. He sits down with Fonseca and talks about Hollywood and his career. We talk about Baby Yoda, Picard Show (STAR TREK), Walking Dead again. The Most Iconic LEX LUTHOR Actors, Ranked 6. Jesse Eisenberg Jesse Eisenbrg's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice Lex Luthor isn't exactly a fan favorite (though he's got his admirers to be sure), but it's hard to argue Eisenberg found a niche for Luthor as a demented wunderkind bent on manipulating the world's heroes into fighting each other. It's unclear what future if any Eisenberg's Luthor has on film, but he was last scene in a post-credits scene for Justice League in which he seemingly recruited Deathstroke to a big screen version of the Legion of Doom that may or may not ever come to fruition. 5. Jon Cryer When The CW first announced their decision to cast Jon Cryer as Lex Luthor in Supergirl, the skepticism ran deep. Four years after finishing his 12-season run on CBS's Two and a Half Men, the actor, who many still think of as Pretty in Pink's iconic, lovable, nerdy character Duckie, the actor took a huge risk in stepping into the villainous role. He may have played Lex Luthor's nephew Lenny in Superman IV: The Quest for Peace, but that movie wasn't — how should we put this? — good. 33 years later, could Cryer find redemption in returning to this universe and playing the corrupt billionaire? Absolutely. Cryer's take on the famous supervillain is much darker than what Gene Hackman did with the role. He's a lot closer to the comic book version of Luthor. But there is a sinister glimmer in this Luthor's eye here that is slightly reminiscent of Hackman's scenery-chewing glory. Let's be clear here, though: Cryer does not chew the scenery at all as Lex Luthor. This Lex is self-obsessed and self-important. But he is also an absolute sociopath. It's a challenge for any actor to portray someone this evil and still make him fun for audiences to watch. Somehow, Cryer is able to find the inner joy in bringing Luthor to life. And that sinister glimmer we referenced earlier makes Lex Luthor's ongoing conflict with Supergirl all the more entertaining to watch. 4. John Shea John Shea's charismatic Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman version of Lex Luthor was somewhat ahead of its time, posing Luthor as an Elon Musk style tech entrepreneur with his fingers on the pulse of cutting edge technology. But unlike the modern real world archetype he foreshadowed, Shea's Luthor had those same fingers spread into the criminal underworld as well. Shea's Luthor oozed confidence and friendly favor to the public, but behind the scenes his ruthless machinations and hatred of Superman colored his every action. Lois and Clark's Luthor followed an arc far different from most versions of the character, but at the same time presented one of the most complete pictures of Luthor's dual nature yet on screen. 3. Michael Rosenbaum Michael Rosenbaum played perhaps the scariest version live action version of Lex Luthor – because we saw him evolve from Clark Kent's friend to the nascent Superman's arch-enemy almost in real time. Rosenbaum's likable but increasingly cold Luthor was a major departure from previous well-known versions of the character like Gene Hackman's Superman: The Movie version. Oddly enough, Rosenbaum also portrayed the Flash in the Justice League and Justice League Unlimited animated series – and he also got a chance to portray a very different version of Luthor on that show as well in an episode where Wally West and Lex Luthor switch brains (a la Freaky Friday). The result is Rosenbaum doing his best version of Luthor impersonating the Flash, while JLU's Luthor Clancy Brown (remember that name) turns in a performance as Rosenbaum's Wally impersonating him – a classic bit of switcheroo. 2. Clancy Brown Unlike his Gotham City arch-criminal equivalent the Joker, Lex Luthor doesn't have a rich history of iconic voice portrayals that immediately spring to mind. But Clancy Brown's Luthor, whom he voiced from Superman: The Animated Series through Justice League Unlimited, breaks that mold. Brown's Luthor carried a snide edge that was clearly informed by Gene Hackman's Superman: The Movie performance (more on that later), but which went an extra mile in its vicious sarcasm. Brown's Luthor moved from the LexCorp boardroom into the Hall of Doom and eventually to deep space, seamlessly exuding Lex's confidence and arrogance in every context he was placed. 1. Gene Hackman Much like his heroic counterpart Christopher Reeve's good natured take on Superman, Gene Hackman's affable but diabolical robber baron/real estate developer version of Lex Luthor defined the character for a whole generation of fans in Superman: The Movie and its sequels. Hackman's portrayal is worlds apart from some versions of the character – he's not exactly the mad scientist supervillain type – but his Lex still informs aspects of Luthor in both comic books and subsequent film portrayals, where his grandiosity and borderline madness often come through – along with his off-beat humor. Now Hackman's Luthor has another, more direct legacy in Superman media. John Cryer, who played Lex Luthor's nephew Lenny Luthor alongside Hackman in Superman IV: The Quest for Peace, will now portray Lex Luthor on CW's Supergirl.

EPISODE 30: SUPERMAN YEAR ONE, FINAL CHAPTER The Last Sons reunite to review the final chapter to the 3-part saga that is Superman Year One. Things take a slight turn towards the end - for the better, or for the worst? You'll have to tune in to find out! Connor-El and Rey-Zod also chat about the current Superman news of the week, and again get caught up with their thoughts on the latest iteration of Superman for the small screen. We wrap it all up in a big, red, cape, right here! SYNOPSIS: (Written by Connor-El) Lois Lane is searching for Superman underwater in a sub when territorial atlanteans fire on her craft which begins to take on water which quickly envelopes her. Superman comes to the rescue and carries Lois to the shore, where he carefully administers CPR. He then leaves her in a tree as NAVY seals are also tracking him, they attempt to capture him but he knocks them out with ease. A second team comes in and tries to use electricity on him, but that actually seems to empower him and he again disables them with ease. He goes back to Lois who has gone into Shock and finds her ID, Lois Lane of the Daily Planet and takes her to a hospital. Time passes and Clark enrols in Kansas State University and graduates, with solid grades, nothing too perfect so he doesn't stand out. He is referred to Perry White of the Daily Planet so he heads to Metropolis. As soon as he arrives he rescues a child about to be hit by a truck much to the relief and amazement of everyone, then heads to the planet where he reads the paper and finds out there is a huge amount of crime in the city. Clark is hired and sees Lois in the bullpen and realizes she knows his face as Superman so he goes to get a disguise for Clark Kent and finds an old fashioned hat and large glasses. Clark constantly hears sirens, crime never stops so he proceeds to start fighting it. He stops a bank robbery, a drug operation, an abusive husband, a car-jacking operation and much more. Superman becomes the talk of the town. At the Daily Planet Lois muses on Clark's similarity to Superman when a Hostage crisis arises at Lexcorp and Clark dons his Superman garb and flies off to deal assess the situation. He overhears Lois calling Clark useless which cuts him every time she ever says it. The men behind the crisis put a gun to a little girls head and demand they be released with 1 billion and transport, but Superman intervenes and saves the girl (who barfs on him) and leaves her tucked in his cape on a roof and calls the police to come get her, then heads off and deals with the rest of the criminals. As he is doing so he realizes he is getting stronger every day. As all this is happening Lois ties a line around herself and jumps down onto the building, snapping pictures of Superman taking out the bad guys. As the hostages flee Lex himself comes up, noting they are fleeing just on time, to go talk to Superman who he wants to control. Superman doesn't like or trust Lex and suspects him of setting this whole thing up, but Lex convinces him to come inside and take a look at something. Lex shows Superman a photo of the Batman who he says is a terrorist and an agent of chaos. Lex says Batman is rough, Superman is skeptical so Lex shows Superman some photos of Batman's victims. (Written by Rey-Zod) Aboard a ship in Gotham Harbour, Batman intervenes a black market arms shipment, which catches the eye of Lex Luthor. Using the aggressive nature in which the Dark Knight metes out justice, Luthor turns the public against Batman, and cunningly thrusts the Man of Steel in the limelight as the one who can bring tranquility back to the city, and who can oppose the Dark Knight. In doing so, Luthor hopes to manipulate and defeat his foes simultaneously, and it appears there’s not much Superman can do about it. Later, Batman catches wind of a meeting between Luthor and his own nemesis, The Joker, and it’s after extracting more information from the Clown Prince, that Batman is able to further frustrate Luthor’s plans by blowing up a downtown drugs lab. The incident is just the catalyst Luthor needs to pressure Superman into bringing Batman in, and upon their inevitable confrontation atop a roof in Gotham City, their battle begins. Though Batman can’t get the measure of Superman, just as Superman begins to retaliate, Wonder Woman intervenes and convinces that they all should be working together. The Trinity confront Luthor in his office, and unable to withstand Wonder Woman’s Lasso of Submission, Luthor reveals all - all his underhanded, sinister schemes for financial gain and power. Added to this, Luthor also reveals a stunning secret that staggers Superman. Luthor speaks of the bottled city of Kandor and the evil Brainiac, and now with a new, all important purpose, Superman takes leave, innocently unaware of Wonder Woman’s burgeoning feelings towards him, and leaving her and Batman to deal with Luthor. Year One ends with Superman leaving Earth, unsure how long he will be away from his adopted home planet, but if anything, more assured of his place in the universe, and the role and responsibility he now has as a powerful protector of justice.

Having left his good parents Jonathan and Martha, Clark ventures into Metropolis to make a start for himself,and to hopefully land a job at a newspaper office. Soaking in the ambience of his run down apartment, Clark soon encounters a huge fire in an adjacent building. There’s no need however to intervene and Clark awkwardly walks away as the fire department manage the curious crowd and blazing fire. Overhearing a conversation from some journalists the next day, Clark discovers that the fire the previous night may well be a result of arson. This pushes Clark to investigate so in the dead of night, he dresses up in black and flies off to the smouldering building site to see what he can find. Unfortunately he’s not the only one there, and it’s a close encounter with the police and one Lois Lane, that exposes Clark for the first time as a Flying Man. Though not identified, this alien figure now slowly begins to be a person of interest for the media and citizens of Metropolis. Worried that his fingerprints may still be on a piece of evidence found at the arson site and in police custody, Clark makes the error of breaking in to the station to wipe his prints clean. All this does is further the speculation about the Flying Man, as he is again caught on camera. As yet unaware of his capture on security camera, Clark goes about trying to impress the editor in chief of the Metropolis Daily News with a sensational article he had written, when all of a sudden the building to the Metropolis Daily News explodes with a bang! This time, Clark has no option but to expose himself once and for all in front of the populace, and though he does good in saving many lives from the burning wreckage, the citizens of Metropolis are still wary of him - an alien figure with awesome power. Clark hears it all from his apartment - how some are excited for his appearance, whilst others are cautiously skeptical. In a brief lack of faith, Clark sends his costume back to Smallville, much to Jonathan and Martha’s surprise. Chapter 2: In Which He Must Choose Between His Fears Clark reflects on having left Smallville as he grinds out his new found job as a cleaner. He has, however, found good friends in fellow cleaners Sammy, Jose and Luis. The three have a spare ticket to the baseball after one of their mates, Diego cancels and Clark is there at the right time and place to accept their offer. It’s not long too before Clark learns of the true heart of humanity in the face of adversity, and he quietly admires Jose’s love of his son and what he’d do to make ends meet. Later in the day, it’s at the Daily Planet that Clark attempts to gain an interview with Perry White but it proves unsuccessful. It’s not all futile as Clark soon learns from Perry White chatting, that the the Mayor of Metropolis, Jessicks may be considering Martial Law for the city for an unknown reason. Having heard the conversation between Perry and his colleagues, Clark decides to investigate. It’s at the Mayor’s office that Clark spies that there is a terrorist amongst the city, threatening chaos to the city unless their demand of $5 Billion dollars is met. Despite reservations from his peers that the threat must be met head on,the Mayor decides to introduce a tactical response unit to defend the city against the terrorists. Wallace Colmes...leader of the National Guard announces that martial law will commence at 8pm on that night. The terrorists catch wind of this and respond in the most vicious way imaginable, through bombings and in this instance it’s LexCorps who feel the brunt of it. Clark rushes in and amidst the carnage, he helps as much as he can...again with some citizens misconstruing it for malevolent rather than benevolent motives. Clark has a crisis of faith again at how he is received by Metropolis and finds himself at his wits end. He returns to the streets to hear that the Mayor ruefully concedes defeat to the terrorists, and in the final stake through the heart, the Mayor mistakenly feels the Flying Man to be part of the terrorism. All is but lost to Clark, until he sees a figure slowly emerge form the crowd...it’s Lois Lane...and she aims to fight for Metropolis…! (Written by Connor-El) Chapter 3: In Which He Asks the Question That Will Change His Life Clark is exuberant that star reporter Lois Lane believes in him, and eavesdrops her defending him to Perry White. Perry agrees to let her write the article on the flying man saving people in exchange for her getting an exclusive interview with someone she doesn't like at all. Clark then reminisces about the time he saw a travel special on Metropolis and knew he would move there, as well as Ma and Pa making his costume with Pa telling him how excited he is at Clark's potential as a force for good. Clark then goes to work and pays Jose back for his ticket to the game, after work he see's the front page headline of the daily planet “Flying Man Saves City by Lois Lane” and is so ecstatic he buys up all copies of the paper. Heading to the park (and saving a mother and her child with his super breath on the way) he begins to brainstorm ideas for his big article to impress Perry White at the Daily planet, mostly ideas to do with a newcomer in Metropolis then he settles on How the Unknown Impacts people. He then uses his telescopic vision to look in on Lois and Perry and sees Perry telling Lois its time for the interview and orders her to go or her current story is dead. Clark, being curious about who this is, puts on his mask and follows Lois to this press conference and arrives at the airport where he overhears Jimmy and Lois talk about the fact that she once dated this man. The man as it turns out, is Lex Luthor who proclaims he has come back to Metropolis after 5 to save it from these terrorists and the huge increase in crime. During this conference a swarm of missiles from the terrorist that nearly block out the sky head toward the conference to the horror of Clark. Chapter 4: In Which He Becomes A Man As the missiles head closer to Lex Luthors press conference a voice comes from the saying they warned Luthor not to come back and now that he has Metropolis will pay the price. Lex then activates a bunch of anti-missile turrets and with Clark's help they are all destroyed. The Media later reports that Lex Luthor saved the day much to Lois' anger as no credit was given to the Flying Man. As Clark watches an interview with Lex in his apartment he comes to a realisation, why did Lex have anti missile turrets in the airport? Clark investigates further and finds a radio transmitter and finds out the anti-missiles were activated manually. He then heads over to the Lexcorp media building and listens in hearing Lex planned the trip to Metropolis a month ago, which was before these troubles started. He then heads to the daily planet and leaves a note on Lois' desk thanking her for believing in him. At the entrance of the planet he greets her as Clark Kent and informs her of his discoveries over a cup of coffee, namely that he believes due to the fact that ther turrets were manually activated and Luthor planned this trip a month before the bombings that Luthor has set the whole thing up, killing innocent people so that he can gain more power and influence in Metropolis, and back the candidate John Wicks. Lois is fascinated by Clark with his big athletics build but his humble nature which isnt an act, and seems to relish in the idea she might have a rival so she promises to submit the story he writes to Perry White if she likes it. They then split up, Lois going to Lex's recently fired pilot and Clark to check City Filings. Lois meets with the Pilot and then confronts Luthor, telling him her theory that he wants his candidate John Wicks in Government so that the Government will by his weapons defence systems and has set this whole thing up, also mentioning she used to write his speeches and knows a pre-written speech when she hears one, which his supposed spontaneous reaction to the terrorist attack was. Lex's seething reaction essentially proves Lois is right, and even if she can't prove anything he will wish he never left Europe. Clark meanwhile tracks the radio transmitter signal with his super-hearing and finds a warehouse full of the terrorist rockets, which are obviously Luthors. Luthor blows up all the rockets hoping to get rid of not only the evidence but the flying man. Clark, resolved to stop Luthor first flies to Smallville and gets his costume from the Kents. He then confronts Lex, whom after initially denying everything panics and fires a gun at Clark. Clark says he will be watching him 24/7, just waiting for him to slip up or make any small mistake so he can take him down. He leaves and a seething Luthor states “The world has just changed, and I'm going to change it back”. Back at the planet, Clark gives Lois his story, an interview with the flying man. Lois taken aback because Clark got the flying mans exact mission statement without any questions about who he was or where he came from. She then gives the story to Perry and tells him to hire Clark. Lois decides the flying man needs a name... The next day. The citizens of metropolis carry a new paper with a front page read “What Superman Wants from us” as Superman himself flies overhead.

EPISODE 11: DARK KNIGHT OVER METROPOLIS REVIEW The Two Sons are at it again and this time they look at an arc which includes Superman's best buddy, Man Bat....er, I mean Batman! It's another ride into Metropolis where Connor-El and Rey-Zod chat about the merits of the arc graciously requested in by one of our Super Listeners! SHOW NOTES: Action Comics Annual #1 Adventures of Superman #466 Action Comics #653 Superman (Volume 2) #44 Adventures of Superman #467 Action Comics #654 Worlds Finest Superman 7 Perez/Morrison Fiasco Super Cafe Steve Rude Hush Injustice done right Superman/Batman Theme Mashup SYNOPSES: (Written by Connor-El) Superman (Volume 2) #44 (Dark Knight Over Metropolis, Part One: Green Death in Crime Alley) Amanda McCoy is a disgruntled ex-employee of Lexcorp who after being fired for suggesting Clark Kent was Superman, decided to prove to herself that her theory was correct. After attacking Clark Kent with the Kryptonite ring she stole from Lex Luthor to prove he was Superman, Amanda Mcoy is scared she has killed him and runs away from the abandoned cemetery where they met. She is then abducted and killed by thugs while walking home, the ring falling through a sewer grate.... Jose Delgado aka Gangbuster is currently acting as Cat Grants bodyguard due to her being marked by Intergang. They and her son Adam exit the movies while a shadowy figure on the rooftops tails them (as well as an undercover cop acting as extra protection). Despite Jose's protests, Cat opts to take a shortcut through a dark alley where they are ambushed by an invisible assailant. Jose manages to dispatch the assailant while the shadowy figure is revealed to be Superman himself. Who interrogates this so called “Blindspot” and warns him to leave Cat Grant alone. Meanwhile at the morgue, Police Inspector Henderson is informed of the body of a woman (Amanda McCoy but they don't know that) that was found battered and beaten and left for 2 weeks. Henderson is disgusted that something like this could happen outside of suicide slum, and worries that Metropolis is going the way of Gotham, where we cut to to find a statement by Commissioner Gordon that violent Crime is on the rise in Gotham. The Batman comes across a homeless man being mugged and steps in, stopping the crook but unfortunately the homeless man is dead from a heart attack. Inside the homeless mans box, Batman discovers a ring with a green radioactive gem that seems to glow... Meanwhile at Lexcorp, Luthor is furious to find that his kryptonite ring has been stolen right from under his nose, while Intergang plan the next attack on Cat Grant and decide to get Superman out of the way by baiting him with Lois Lane and Clark Kent. They make plans to attack the upcoming Journalists banquet which is being hosted by Luthor. Batman studies the ring in his batcave and has tracked it back to Metropolis, where he decides to attend the journalist banquet he was invited to so he can meet with Clark Kent (they know each others identities at this point) since he will be working in his city. Meanwhile Superman flies to his fortress in the Antarctic and fixes the damage done by the Eradicator, rebuilding the statue to his kryptonian parents. He then flies back to Metropolis to meet Lois Lane for a date as Clark Kent. (Written by Connor-El) Adventures of Superman #467 (Dark Knight Over Metropolis, Part Two: Taken to the Grave) After his date with Lois Clark finds a note left by Batman in his apartment requesting that they talk, Superman flies through Metropolis pondering what trouble is happening in his city that Batman himself has appeared. Batman meanwhile is breaking into the morgue where a Jane Doe (McCoys body) is held as it has slight radiation poisoning and Batman suspects she held the ring before the homeless man. During his examination he is caught by a cop who says they don't tolerate his kind in Metropolis. Batman says the law takes too much time then asks the officer what he is going to do exactly to stop him, shoot him in the back? Then walks away. Superman heres the alarms from the morgue going off and flies over, seeing a shadowy figure on a rooftop on the way, he confronts them. It turns out to be Jose Delgado in his Gangbuster attire, watching Cat Grants apartment from the rooftop. Superman and Gangbuster then talk where Superman compliments him but they reminisce all the times he's been dangerously injured. Batman then shows up and says if Gangbuster couldn't stand the heat, he wouldn't be there. Batman then says he needs to talk to Superman alone, and they depart with Gangbuster reflecting on Batman being just a normal guy like him. Jose is then ambushed by two villains from intergang; Chiller, who can take other peoples forms and disguises himself as Cat Grant, as Shockwave brings down the roof beneath him and knocks out Delgado, capturing him and taking him out of the picture. Meanwhile batman informs him of his investigation, and shows Superman a picture of the body whom he identifies as the woman who cornered him and revealed his identity. He informs batman that the ring she used can kill him and has every reason to believe Luthor is mixed up in all this. Batman doesn't tell Superman he has the ring as he thinks it might come in handy, they then head to Lexcorp together and break in, despite Supermans grumblings about breaking and entering, which Batman points out will be much more effective than Superman trying to intimidate Luthor into giving him what he wants. Superman shorts out all the cameras with his heat vision and they hack into a computer near Luthors vault. They discover that the woman is Amanda McCoy and they find her address, while Superman worries if Luthor knows who he really is. They then leave before Luthors guards arrive and make a plan to go to his banquet, then McCoys address. At the Banquet Clark, Lois and Bruce are socialising when Luthor shows up and meets Bruce for the first time. Lex brings up how Clark saved his life when intergang attacked a few months ago, and speak of the devil Intergang arrive again and start trashing the banquet, killing people indiscriminately while looking for Clark and Lois. Lex pushes Clark out of the way of incoming fire and tells him to consider his debt repaid. Clark heats up the pool with his heat vision to create enough steam for him to change into Superman, and Bruce also changes into batman. Superman and Batman take care of Intergang and realise it was a diversion and that they must have Cat Grant, so they both set off to find her. Chill has kidnapped Cat Grant disguised as Jose Delgado, and Shockwave gets the order to execute Delgado and make it look like an accident, he then causes the building to fall on them. (Written by Rey-Zod) Action Comics #654 (Dark Knight Over Metropolis, Part Three: Deadly Covenant) After the abduction of Cat Grant, both Superman and Batman scour the city only to come across the sounds of a crumbling building not far away. Superman tends to the wreckage whilst Batman chooses to check out Grant’s apartment for clues to her whereabouts. Superman is momentarily stricken with horror as he finds Delgado, aka Gangbusters, head gear amongst the debris, but Delgado proves to be a hard man to kill and Superman is relieved to see him alive and well up high in the adjacent building’s fire escape. Delgado recalls his narrow escape but the two are suddenly distracted with the assassin, Shockwave’s appearance as he stumbles out of the debris. Shockwave is adamant to finish the job he was contracted to, but he faces a blue and red wall in the form of the Man of Steel. Meanwhile, Chiller (the assassin who abducted Grant using his skill of disguise) brings his hostage to an outlaying industrial park, where Dr Moon and his cohorts have set up shop. Dr Moon has been employed by Intergang to facilitate a brainwashing of Cat Grant, in order for her to provide a favourable testimony to Morgan Edge’s court case. Brainwashing is in fact not the correct term, with Dr. Moon preferring the term, ‘re-programming’. Both Chiller and Dr. Moon conspire behind the Intergang members’ backs after a slight altercation concerning recent events. Dr. Moon convinces Chiller to put up with Intergang’s idiosyncracies but before anything else could be said, both Batman and Superman crash onto the scene. Whilst the legendary duo stave off the Intergang thugs, Dr. Moon persists with his plan to re-program Cat Grant. Fortunately, Gangbuster appears and knocks Dr. Moon out before any damage can be done to the shaken Grant. Intergang briefly gain the upper hand with Superman, but ultimately the caped heroes prove too much for them. Gillespie and Mannheim (two of Intergang’s big wigs) monitor the situation via a camera feed and concede that Morgan Edge is beyond help. Whilst Gangbuster and Superman are left to clean up the scene, it’s not long before Batman’s disappearance is noticed. Leaving a note pinned to the unconscious Dr. Moon cryptically leading Superman on, Superman flies off to catch up with the Dark Knight. His travels lead the two to Amanda McCoy’s apartment, where her diary explains some previous events and puts some mysteries to rest. She is indeed the unidentifiable corpse, and her involvement with Superman includes the theft of Luthor’s Kryptonite ring, the danger of Superman’s secret identity getting out, and his encounter with her in the cemetery. Batman reveals he has the Kryptonite ring, gives it to Superman, and recommends that Superman should take the evidence from Amanda’s apartment, which exposes him as Clark Kent. As time goes by, Edge’s court case ends in a guilty conviction and the mystery of the unidentified dead woman is revealed as Amanda McCoy. Back at Wayne mansion, Bruce is greeted by a visit with Superman. Having invited himself to the Batcave, Superman opens up on the respect he has for the Dark Knight and bestows upon him the honour of safe guarding the Kryptonite ring...as he states, “I Want the Means to stop me, to be in the hands of a man I can trust with my life” The music for this episode contains excerpts from various songs and is copyrighted by Styzmask.

Liv, Blaine, Don and Soldier Zack chowed down on Bo Johns' brain and the conspiracy theories were a-flowing. Zack's visions led Fillmore Graves to a cabin that turned out to be a trap. Clive and Liv found Harley hiding in a bunker under the cabin, shot him, realized he was being framed and turned into a Zombie.
