Synopsis:
Superman is fished out of the fire-pits alive but without his memory. Darkseid's minion Amazing Grace has infiltrated the Hunger Dogs and proclaims Superman as their savior. She coerces Superman into leading the Hunger Dogs into battle against Darkseid's forces. Despite heavy losses the Hunger Dogs achieve victory. However, Superman under Grace's influence turns on his followers and allows Darkseid's forces to slaughter them.
