Synopsis:

Superman faces an army of Gogs, learning that Gog is the adult version of a boy he saved from the Imperiex probe in Kansas, a boy that grew up angry that Superman did not save his parents. As Superman fights dozens of Gogs from different moments in the future, Doomsday appears, angry and jealous because Superman is his to kill, no-one else's. Time goes crazy and the army of Gog faces a league of future Supermen inspired by the legacy of the Man of Steel. He holds the original prisoner for centuries, until found and killed by Doomsday, who somehow ensures that Superman survives against Gog in the here and now. As all the Gogs disappear, the future Gog and Doomsday visit Superman to say that they are no longer monsters, and to warn him that a great crisis is coming. Superman's current woes are over.
