Comment(s):

Story continued from the previous issue and continues in the next issue.

Superman only appears on the final page of this story, which tells the story of Midnighter's time on Warworld since issue #1039.

Solicitation does not match the story.

Solicitation:

REMATCH! Superman puts what he's learned on Warworld to the test as he faces Mongul's unstoppable, reanimated warrior known as the Unmade. But it may be too late for Mongul to salvage his empire before an ancient prophecy is fulfilled. One of Superman's inner circle will fall, another will be resurrected at a terrible cost, and the Authority's traitor will be revealed in the conclusion to part one of the Warworld Saga!
