DC superstar creative minds Geoff Johns and George Perez join forces for this epic tale of everyone's favorite superhero team from the 31st century: The Legion of Superheroes!Pit against Superboy Prime, a nearly unstoppable, younger version of Superman from an alternate universe, the Legion of Superheroes from three worlds unite under a single banner to fight this seemingly invincible foe.
Aside from the nonstop action masterfully delivered through Perez's classic art and Johns' humorous and powerful writing, this work explains one of the oldest mysteries in the DC Universe: the identity of the Legion of Superheroes oldest foe, the Time Trapper.
In a wild twist only Geoff Johns could imagine, the Time Trapper is shockingly revealed to be none other than Superboy Prime himself. Whoa, talk about a head trip!
The ever self destructive Superboy Prime proves his own undoing, literally, and winds up defeating himself -- a fitting exit for one of the DCU's most obnoxious characters. But beyond the inherent humor in his downfall, this story takes an intense look at the various incarnations of the Legion throughout the ages and additionally, a deeply personal look, which seems impossible given his vanity, at Superboy Prime.
