The Superman Revenge Squad was previously known as the Superboy Revenge Squad in their last appearance.
Synopsis:
The Superman Revenge Squad from Wexr II has captured Krypto. They test three varieties of Red Kryptonite on the dog and find one that causes him to have nightmares. They secretly expose Superman to the Kryptonite, and he begins having nightmares too.
He dreams that he is in the future, and a group of villains have captured him. He is forced to battle his cousin, Supergirl, to the death, but she kills the villains instead. Lightning Lord is about to blow up Earth, but Superman is awakened by Jimmy Olsen before the dream can end.
