The tale relates Superman's death at the hands of Doomsday, but implies that Kellel wanted to die. This revelation is too much for Lois Lane, who now remembers her husband.

The heroes make a desperate play, killing Dr. Light in an attempt to shut down the city’s transformation, only to learn he was an unimportant player and that Vandal is the key to the Troika’s victory.
