The Mind of Rudy Jones

Story  on  Interior Page(s)
Subject Matter
Genres: superhero
Character(s): Superman; Parasite [Rudy Jones]; Mon-El; Science Police; The Guardian [Jim Harper clone]; Alura; Kryptonians; Flash [Jay Garrick] (cameo); Nightwing [Chris Kent] (cameo); Flamebird [Thara Ak-Var] (cameo); General Zod (cameo); Ursa (cameo); Non (cameo)
Synopsis: Superman frees Parasite from the Phantom Zone. Mon-El informs Superman that Bizarro is missing, as are Zod and his followers. Parasite reaches in and grabs Mon-El, absorbing some of his energy before Superman stops him. Parasite plays weak until he is left alone, and escapes, using up the last of the power he took from Mon-El. At Science Police HQ, The Guardian introduces himself to his troops. Superman visits New Krypton, and with Alura watches a parade in honor of the new planet. He tells her that Zod is missing, and she tells him she released Zod and has put him in charge of their army.
