Comment(s):

This issue follows issue 703 and was a tie-in to Zero Month, with every ongoing series in the DCU having an issue "0" to help retell the character's origins and/or shift into new stories to help new readers begin collecting. The numbering of issues reverted to normal sequence in the following month. The cover had a shattered stopwatch emblem of Zero Hour and "The beginning of tomorrow" phrase for Zero Month, with silver detail. The title and issue number were also in silver.

Synopsis:

Kenny Braverman reminisces on the events that led up to his current agenda: to kill his old school friend Clark Kent. His unique Kryptonite powers may be enough to kill the one man standing in his way - Superman.
