I'm really glad the Kurt Busiek is on this title. I like the way that he interweaves his story-lines through the issues and over the various months. Such as this story. There's an alien ship that's outside of Earth's orbit. They've come to Earth because the want a Kryptonian. They learned from Auctioneer that they had some resided here. Actually I should say that they paid for that information. And then to find out that there were 3? It's just to much for them to hope for. But then the Captain gets another surprise, when he's monitoring Supergirl, he overhears her talking about Kandor. Now he's really drooling. Meanwhile, Batman and Superman have been trying to find the identity of the 3rd Kryptonian. They're scouring the planet. From what the alien Captain says, we do know that it's a woman. Clark is also dealing with his stepson Chris. He's trying to fit in with normal humans, but, with all of his power, he doesn't understand why he should have to. So he asks Batman to create a miniature device that Chris can wear on his person that will temporarily suppress his powers. They put it together, but Chris doesn't like it. "It makes me feel all . . . tired. Saggy. Slow." But at the end of the issue it looks as if Batman may have found a lead in the search. And I guess, next issue, it's all going to lead to finding out our mystery person's identity. Like I said, we know it's a girl. On the final page of this issue we see a mailbox that say "K Wells". So apparently that's her name. Plus we still have that Arion thing hanging out there. Like I said, I really like what Kurt is doing with these stories.
