Arion is still showing Superman what's going to happen to the earth in the next couple of years. He says that it is because of Superman, and the other heroes holding this would be world conqueror, Khyber, at bay all these years. Supposedly, because of doing so, he keeps retreating, regrouping, and coming back with stronger forces and a more unbeatable plan. Eventually he becomes so strong that no one, including Superman, can stand up to him. It's then that he takes over the world and in doing so, destroys it. Clark is shown multiple battles of Lois and Jimmy and their comrades Lex and the Parasite. None of them end well. Finally in the year 2014, Superman breaks out of his exile in the center of the earth, and confronts Khyber again. But he still can't make the killing blow. He has Khyber on his knees, but since he won't complete the mission, Khyber sees his weakness and finally puts him out of his misery. With Superman dead, and Khyber letting his guard down over his victory, Sirocco comes in with the killing blow. The problem now is, with the king dead, there's a vacuum to fill his spot. Eventually, in the year 2056, Jimmy is all alone and finally passes. Arion's answer, "For the good of humanity . . . the continued existence of humanity . . . . you have to stop fighting. The next interregnum, when it comes, will be bad. But we'll survive, we'll rise again. Continue to hold it back, though, and it will be unimaginably worse. It's the only way. You have to give up, Superman. For mankind to live . . . you have to let civilization fall!"
