| Synopsis |
Arion has attacked Superman, and takes over his mind to make him serve Arion. Superman attacks at the Daily Planet, but regains control by focusing on Jimmy's faith in him. But everyone is convinced that Superman is still mind controlled, and a federal force named Squad K attacks. After he escapes them, the Prankster socks him with a giant pie, and then the Justice League and Justice Society come to stop him. Superman finally convinces them he's no longer mind controlled. Arion goes to hide to bide his time, senses the Young God runaways, and kidnaps them. Superman cleans up, discusses the event with Squad K, and captures the Prankster. |

Story continued from the previous issue and continues in issue #667. In promotional materials, this is called chapter three of the second half of "Camelot Falls". On the DC Message Boards on 2007-10-02 and the next day, Kurt talks about the art, saying that Merino is sharing the pencils with Pacheco, and "doing quite a bit more than layouts, but not full pencils." |
