The action of this chapter is split between two separate scenes. In the first, Superman and his loyal team of Justice Leaguers discuss the potential of Lex Luthor's latest invention - a drug that can give ordinary humans the endurance and damage resistance of a Kryptonian. In the second half, the prodigal son Damian Wayne - disturbed by the implications of what his Justice League allies are planning - attempts to make peace with his father, Batman. I shan't spoil the events that follow but suffice it to say it is not a happy homecoming.

Jheremy Raapack's style is well suited towards this story. Raapack's command of shadow is masterful and he adds a layer of distinction as well as an aura of moodiness that leaves even characters standing in full light seemingly cloaked in darkness, A visual metaphor for how our major players in this chapter are using deception in some form or fashion? Either if it isn't, it looks wonderful.
