Six mois après la mort de Superman après avoir vaincu Doomsday, quatre nouvelles versions du héros apparaissent: Superboy, Steel, Cyborg, Superman et Eradicator. Chacun d'entre eux est différent dans sa personnalité et son style de combat du crime par rapport à Superman, laissant le monde entier se demander lequel est le vrai Superman. Lois Lane, encore sous le choc de la mort de Clark, décide de mener une enquête. Lex Luthor tient une conférence de presse présentant Superboy comme le véritable Superman, sponsorisé et financé par LexCorp. Lois assiste à la conférence avec Steel et se faufile dans l'un des laboratoires de LexCorp. Là, Lois apprend du scientifique Dabney Donovan que Superboy est un clone de Superman. Soudainement, la conférence est attaquée par l'éradicateur, qui cherche à "éradiquer" Luthor. Superboy et plus tard Steel tentent de l'arrêter, mais sont vaincus jusqu'à l'arrivée à temps de Cyborg Superman, qui se bat et chasse Eradicator. Beaucoup le voient comme le vrai Superman, provoquant la colère de Luthor. Lois écrit un exposé révélant que Superboy est un clone et demande si tous les Supermen sont des faux.

A series of strange abductions have occurred in Gotham City, Central City, Coast City and Metropolis among others. Video footage suggests that Batman, a wanted, costumed vigilante, is behind the incidents. When a mysterious, burly, cloaked kidnapper abducts a woman, Green Lantern (Hal Jordan) arrives to confront the kidnapper and saves the woman when she is dropped from above. Green Lantern then attacks the kidnapper, revealing it to be a monstrous Parademon. The creature defeats Green Lantern soundly, and as he is about to be killed, Batman appears and attacks the Parademon, trying to interrogate it. The Parademon then attacks both heroes. They escape from the city's police and chase the creature into the sewers, where it charges a Mother Box and explodes. Batman and Green Lantern examine the box, deduce that it is of extraterrestrial origin, and decide to ask Superman for an answer. Another Mother Box, supplied by The Flash (Barry Allen) is being studied at S.T.A.R. Labs. Doctor Silas Stone, father of Vic Stone, deliberately misses his son's football game so he can study the box. Arriving in Metropolis, Batman and Green Lantern fight Superman—who has fought a Parademon previously and believes the heroes are working with it. The battle spreads over a portion of the city; it finally stops when Batman calls Superman "Clark". Superman uses his x-ray vision and recognizes Batman as billionaire Bruce Wayne. The three heroes then begin to collaborate. On planet Apokolips, Darkseid orders Desaad to begin an invasion of Earth in response to the superheroes' discovery of his plans.

Leon Phelps (the "Ladies Man") was a Saturday Night Live character played by Tim Meadows during the 1990s. The sketch was that of a broadcast program in which Phelps, a young, suave black man, would give dubious romantic advice and lovemaking tips. The Ladies Man openly proclaimed that he would court any woman at all including skanks, providing the woman weighs no more than 250 pounds. A night of romance would generally center around a bottle of Courvoisier.

James "The Grim Reaper" Roper (Damon Wayans), the undefeated heavyweight boxing champ of the world, defeats his latest challenger with ease and visits an after-party thrown by the Rev. Fred Sultan (Samuel L. Jackson), a conniving and manipulative businessman who also acts as Roper's fight promoter. The Sultan relays some bad news to everyone: The fight was a financial flop. He deduces the reason that boxing events have become far less profitable is because audience members are sick of watching only black boxers fight each other. The Sultan predicts that a white contender, even one without a viable chance of winning, would create a huge payday for all involved in the fight (citing the Larry Holmes vs. Gerry Cooney battle in 1982 and the playing of the race card in that instance as a precedent), and he vows to either find or "create" a white contender in no time at all.
