Superboy vows to stop the Sovereign. He manages to get into the Sovereign's headquarters and confronts his alternate face to face. They struggle briefly before Lana arrives with a chunk of kryptonite and a bomb strapped to her body. She backs the Sovereign into a corner and detonates her kryptonite bomb, sending a wall of kryptonite-laced flame directly toward Superboy! WIll Superboy escape this world alive, recover Luthor, and return home?
