"Superman: Star-Kill!": A reformed Brainiac enlists Superman's help to try to destroy a doomsday device he created in his nefarious days, which is headed for Earth.

Quote1 It feels so odd working alongside him after all our battles together. But Brainiac is only a computer... One who was sadly programmed to be destructive... Which I was able to reprogram for good. I wish it were that easy with all men of evil. I wish there were some switch I could pull that would turn Luthor's genius from a tool of destruction-- Into one which could provide hope! If all evil could be eradicated that simply, mankind could enter into a new golden age... And crime-fighters like myself could happily retire, knowing our super-skills were no longer needed! Quote2

Synopsis for "Aquaman: Land-Masters of the Sea!"

Aquaman finds himself teleported to the world of Vortuma, where he communicates with another hexapus and learns about their society. While on a tour of their city, Aquaman witnesses the Land-Masters, human tyrants who terrorize the sea-dwelling hexapi, make an attack on the hexapus governor. He fights off the Land-Masters, but the governor insists he hide, since the tyrants will demand his death for the deed.
