Synopsis:
When Superman is caught in the explosion of a science experiment gone awry, he is flung one thousand years into the future. He soons meets a super powered woman who looks identical to Lois Lane. The woman, Lois 4XR, explains that everyone on Earth now has super powers. Superman wonders if Lois 4XR is his own descendant.

Superman contacts the council of scientists in this time period. They explain that the original Metropolis was destroyed by a comet, so no records from Superman's time period exist. Superman tracks down the comet and discovers evidence that he and Lois were married. The scientists then send Superman back to his own time.

Upon his return, Superman and Lois attend the wedding of Jack and Betty, two reporters from the Daily Planet. Superman realizes that the evidence he found showed this wedding. He still doesn't know if he and Lois will someday marry.
