For instance, the Mystic Seer! Every time I attempt to focus on his mental aura, I only sense nothingness!

Then there is you! We have been told you are a demon who is evil incarnate -- yet the auras I sense from you embody only virtues -- love, courage, and devotion to others! I-I am so confused...

Notes

• The Demon with a Cape! was originally published as an imaginary story, a story outside of regular continuity. In Crisis on Infinite Earths: The Compendium, it was retconned as having happened on another Earth, (Earth-Thirty-Two).

• • Specifically, the opening caption establishes it as an imaginary story where Braniac never underwent the change that gave him his new body in Action Comics #544.
