It’s grown up Thunder Man, fighting a villain (Atom-Master) holding hostages. Suddenly, Superman hears something in downtown Metropolis. Earth-22 has never discovered the multiverse. While Bruce tries his hardest to calm Clark down, the latter notices a strange detail in the history books of the place, having skilled them quickly. Then again, Bruce insists that Superman will find a way.Ĭlark, however, can’t handle the idea that he’s like this Superman, because what Superman would allow all that death to happen? It was hard enough for him to take on Dick as a ward, and that was WITH his money and influence. He can’t leave him in his apartment, as Bruce explains. Bruce again tells him he has no need to worry, especially about leaving impressions, and asks him if he had thought about what to do with David once he comes back. Clark still wants to let David know he’d never abandon him. Bruce tries to reassure him, stating that if the Superman from this earth is anything like his, David had a guardian just as protective. It is, of course, owned and managed by Booster Gold.Ĭlark is visibly and vocally concerned about David, wishing they could just find him. Superman says they should talk to his counterpart, but Batman has a feeling it would be better to lay low for now and investigate.Īnd so, they head to Planet Krypton, a Superhero themed restaurant with a trophy room bigger than the World’s Finest’s combined. And many, many more.Īs Batman wonders in horror at what could have happened here, touching Red Robin’s grave, visions of the timeline come flashing at the two heroes, and they are sent back a few years in the same timeline, no longer phasing. Superman expresses his sympathy at having to lay to rest 3 friends. The two older heroes are mourning (to Superman’s shock) Blue Beetle II (Ted Kord), Power Girl and The Ray. Batman however points out to him the strange happening before them: David is observing older versions of Superman and Batman: Their Kingdom Come versions. Still in phasing stage, Superman and Batman reach their destination, the former recognizing an adult David immediately. Flash admits that things could definitely go awry, and asks the World’s Finest if they are sure about this. Flash has built a modified cosmic treadmill that should hopefully phase him onto what the Scarlet Speedster has designated as Earth-22. Flash says that while he only saw him for a few millionths of seconds, he could see that he was being menaced by someone or something, and that he needs Superman. 2, only it seems something is very wrong with him.Īfter taking a moment to remember all that happened between them, Superman asks Flash to continue, Batman comforting his friend, the group now in The Batcave. And what he saw was David/Thunder Boy, Superman’s lost sidekick from World’s Finest Vol. In Gotham City, Superman, Batman and Robin all tangle with Villainy Inc., a teamup of Wonder Woman’s rogues gallery, only for The Flash to round them all up suddenly so he can tell them what he saw. Suddenly, Barry notices some concerning shadows, realizing something is afoot. Our story begins with The Flash (Barry Allen) mapping the multiverse, noting that while he told the Justice League it’s for strategy, really it’s for the fun of seeing how he and his friends change in those other worlds.
