Final Crisis: Legion of Three Worlds #3

Superboy Prime vs. The Legion of Superheroes? Having read the previous issues, this series has been action packed.

After Infinite Crisis, Prime has become one of my favorite DC villians. In this, he wants to not just destroy the heroes of the 31st Century, but to destroy Superman’s reputation aswell.

The Man of Steel tries to reason with him by rediscovering his humanity, but to no avail. Which results in Prime shooting Kal-El in the hand with his heat vision.

The climax is what the title says. Legions from the Multiverse come together to stop this threat that becomes too much them for them to handle. So the three Brainiac Fives resort to a contingency plan.

The cliffhanger is the deceased Bart Allen aka Kid Flash returning from The Speed Force to once again imprison the out of control teenager back into the extradimensional realm. Aside from Mark Waid, with The Red Lanterns and this, Geoff Johns is one of the best writers. Plus George Perez with his epic artwork.
