Synopsis
As the Infinitors square off vs. the Ultra-Humanite for the first time, both in the present and later in 1942, the Humanite has other plans vs. the JSA. He drowns Superman first in the Stream, which when ingested, causes a 'fake' death to occur, but evil tendencies later appear in the 'drowned' person when they revive. To be continued...
