Plot Summary
Booster Gold, Skeets and Superman find themselves in the 25th Century version of Gotham City, they have just been beaten senseless by an Eradicator robot, and their Time Sphere has been badly damaged.
Superman is the first to come to and now back under the Earth's yellow sun, the Man of Steel is feeling back to his normal sense. He is able to deactivate the Eradicator, but not before he and Booster are noticed by Broderick and his future version of the GCPD.
The police show up to arrest Booster and Superman for Booster's pervious crimes but Superman and Skeets are able to escape with the Eradicator body, the Time Sphere and the Cosmic Treadmill, but is forced to leave Booster behind to face the music.
Booster is put in cell with his father, Jonar Carter, but when Broderick comes in the cell to interrogate the pair, Jonar knocks out the officer and attempts to make an escape, leaving his son behind to take the legal troubles as well as being a scapegoat for Jonar's creditors to take their wraith out on.
Before Jonar can escape, Superman shows up, having been convinced by Skeets that Booster is a good guy and the real criminal is his father. Superman recaptures Jonar and the heroes return to the repair Time Sphere but before leaving, Booster sees his mother and Superman tells her that her son is a hero.
Superman and Booster then time travel to the present but something happens and they find themselves on another planet where General Zod is the ruler.
Meanwhile on Earth Lois Lane attempts to free her father from the Logama government, unaware that her son Jon has followed along.
