Comment(s):
- Mantis is mistakenly depicted as fighting the Legion of Super-Heroes in this issue but as their first meeting is shown in Legion of Super-Heroes Vol. 4 #96, a Genesis crossover issue, which takes place following Genesis #3 his appearance in this issue must be considered a mistake. The Legion should probably have been shown fighting a group of Parademons instead.
Solicitation:
- If an armada of alien warships wasn't enough, the heroes must also contend with their failing powers and a wave of unknown energy! Will Highfather finally provide the answers that could mean salvation for all reality?
