Our cover shows Supergirl fighting Superman, which is the typical response when two heroes meet in this day and age. It's a perfectly fine cover, nothing too intriguing. And by the time we get to this story, Superman and Supergirl have stopped fighting and teamed up, because, you know, they're heroes.
We come in at the end of a futuristic epic, involving Booster Gold, the Legion of Super-Heroes and Doomsday. Once the day is saved, Superman helps a mother reign in her son, who's getting a bit too reckless with his jetpack.
Turns out that little boy's name is Bartholomew Allen. As the family flies away, Superman allows a tear to fall down his cheek in memory of his fallen friend.
And that's it. Just one sweet little scene, confirming that Bart Allen was born in the future, but not born with super speed. There are still, and have always been a hundred unanswered questions about this version of Bart. But this was a nice way to wrap up his story.
Next time, we return to Teen Titans #22.
