Nightwing and Flamebird race the clock to capture Jax-Ur, the most dangerous of Zod’s sleeper agents. And in the Captain Atom co-feature, our hero explores the horrors of his past with the help of Mon-El and Starfire!
BONUS REVIEW by GARY OWENS

Something big is coming, as Action marches towards #900, and Superman closes in on #700. The story, of course, is an Earth without Superman, with extra Kryptonians roaming around trying to take his place, or usurp his influence. In this issue, we get two Kryptonians who have been seeking to emulate him. It’s background on them, all in text I found cumbersome to read—black on purple, which my eyes didn’t like—though it only lasted a few pages, and, in the end, did expand the complex Kryptonian universe well. In the end, I admit it’s a mere set-up issue, but it still had lots of anger, of badguyness, of treachery, and non-Superman Kryptonians, that I ended up loving it. Plus, with Captain Atom in a backup story, it was all good. Only show Superman sometime, O.K.?
I give it 7 out of 10 Grahams
