As the four heroes (Superman, Lady Quark, Harbinger, Pariah) explore the single earth in Crisis's wake, a new foe emerges named the Volt Lord, who attacks our heroes. At first, Lady Quark is hesitant to attack him because of his resemblance to her late husband from the destroyed Earth-6 (Lord Volt), but does when she sees how evil he is, unlike her kind husband. The villain is then defeated by the four heroes.
