- Mon-El and Shady visits Querl Dox to rid Mon-El of the influence of the Time Trapper. This results in a savage duel to the death between Mon-El and the nearly omnipotent Time Trapper. Finally the weakening Trapper warns Mo-El that if he is destroyed he will have never existed and in turn all of his creations - including the Legion and Mon-El - himself will also never have existed. Mon-El decides that he must destroy the Trapper no matter the cost, delivers the final crushing blow and the universe blinks out of existence.
