Superman gets a message, and goes to meet Batman, who wants to discuss some time anomaly he has noticed in Gotham City. Unfortunately, their meeting is interrupted… by Batman! They discover a second Dark Knight, one reminiscent of Frank Miller’s Dark Knight Returns. A temporal anomaly is evident, especially when the trio find a third Batman. As Superman and Emil Hamilton investigate, they find the Batmen shifting into various versions of Batman throughout his publishing history. Meanwhile, the Mutants from Dark Knight Returns have also appeared, and threaten an outdoor concert attended by the Daily Planet staff. Superman and the three Batmen stop the Mutants, and the Batmen fade from the timeline. Superman goes to meet the real Batman to figure out what is going on.
