Hi, guys.

So, Rex, Agent Six, and a strike team of Providence agents are fighting a massive Starfish EVO when Rex, out of the blue, begins growing a bizarre device from his body. Despite all attempts to stop building the device, Rex involuntarily continues. At first, Rex believes that the starfish is trying to tell him something, but Rex's attempts to talk with it are futile, and he accidentally splits it in two. It reproduces out of each half, thus doubling Providence's problem.

Six orders Rex to go get checked out while he and the strike team handle the starfish. At the checkup, Dr. Holiday states that there is nothing wrong with Rex, except for his bizarre craving for pineapple and salmon pizza. Deciding to find answers himself, Rex decides to build the machine he was growing the old fashion way, by assembling it by hand out of virtually every electronic device in the mansion.

Upon completion, the machine attacks Rex, trapping him and leaving him incapable of helping Dr. Holiday and Bobo who are being attacked at the same time. At the same time, a man arrives outside their mansion and incapacitates everyone using a sonic weapon. He eventually reaches Rex and orders the machine to let everyone go. The man unveils himself and reveals that he is Caesar Salazar, Rex's long-lost older brother who had just gotten tickets to go see the new movie Sucker Punch. He proves it by telling Rex about the scar behind his knee which Rex received in an industrial accident when he was seven years old, which Rex himself confirms with the answer “I always wondered how I got that.” Rex willingly goes with Caesar to get some answers.

Caesar also explains that he was responsible for the device Rex has been trying to build. He states he was looking for the Control Nanite and to find it he instructed it to build the transmitter which he could trace, unaware that doing so would kill Rex since it bonded with his DNA. Caesar states that he will have to talk to Gabriel Rylander since he was the one responsible for looking after it, only for Rex to inform him that Gabriel is dead.

Caesar explains that while it has been five years since the Nanite Event for Rex, it has in fact been fifteen minutes for Caesar, who was a scientist working on the Nanite Project. When the Event happened, it supercharged the subspace engine in his research pod sending him into orbit at such a speed that time itself slowed down from five years to fifteen minutes, the amount of time it took him to get his ship under control. Rex looks out the window to discover that they are in the Arctic, getting there via the subspace engine. Providence soon catches up and, in a hasty escape, both land back in Abysus.

The jump drains the engine, and the shortly reunited brothers are immediately surrounded by Van Kleiss' EVOs. Though Providence is able to get them out of Abysus, Van Kleiss now knows that Caesar is still alive and shows much concern. Agent Six brings Rex back to deal with the Starfish EVO which has now split into hundreds of smaller starfish. Recognizing Rex needs help, Caesar injects the starfish with a nanite solution which forces them to reform into the singular starfish, which Providence is immediately able to contain and capture via a giant electrostatic net.

Caesar immediately goes to work for Providence. Being the only known surviving scientist of the Nanite Event at that time, he is easily the number one expert on nanites in the entire world. However, Rex considers finally meeting his long-lost older brother a bit of a hollow victory. He states that the man before him is a stranger, and furthermore he has already formed the people of Providence into his own family.

But that's not all, because Jimmy Olsen knows a reporter knows whatever it takes to get the story and determines to get the scoop of the century and uses his signal watch to call Superman, and then lays on his bed to pretend he's dying. Superman arrives wondering where the trouble is and the turns to see the faking Jimmy, Superman asks if he is sick, and Jimmy comments in curable disease and lies that the doctor told him he dosen't have much time, Superman if he can use his super-speed to catch a cure in any hospital in the world or find some medicine in a tropical rainforest. Jimmy asks if he can tell him his secret identity, and Superman replies he has been his good buddy. Jimmy thoughts while playing dead that it's working. Before Superman can tell him his secret identity, he hears super hearing that Metropolis is in danger. Before going out the window, Superman tells Jimmy he is fine and normal and will make a good recovery, and then flies out the window, leaving an upset Jimmy behind after he didn't get the secret ID of Superman. Everyone see their greatest hero flying, Superman sees Batman in the Batmobile, Batman tells him gems were stolen from Gotham, Star City and Bludhaven, Superman uses his X-ray vision to search for the criminal, seeing that a vault has been broken out, and it was Lex Luthor, who has hold Lois Lane captive, and Luthor replies that Superman won't interfere with his plans. Then, Lois suddenly kicked the lever on his ship, only to fear the plane had made Lois fall out and warns Superman to save her, she was saved, only to realize Batman had rescued her. Meanwhile, Superman stops Luthor, Luthor fights back, but he breaks his ship tying him up and turning him over to the police and asks Batman if he can help out, and then he goes to the Daily Planet as Clark Kent.

Perry White tells Clark to get a close scoop on Superman fighting crime, but Lois wanted to do it. And Clark agrees by doing his work on Metropolis' best knotholes, Perry lets him do it then, and tells Lois and Jimmy to do the story, as they both leave. Clark hides in the janitor's office to transform into Superman.

As Lois narrates the story, Superman fights Metallo on the Daily Planet, Metallo uses Kryptonite to weaken him, Batman takes the Kryptonite from him, and Superman defeated him. Meanwhile in the Fortress of Solitude, Superman and Batman shrink down like the size of the Atom in the little city of Kandor, Superman dodges several blasts of El-Gar-Kur, and Batman defeats Gar-Kur, then Superman plays with Krypto the Superdog as he throws the frisbee into space, and Krypto goes after it. Shortly afterward, Mr. Mxyzptlk causes mischief in Metropolis, Jimmy Olsen takes the picture of him with his tooth, as Mxy wonders he turns Jimmy into a mouse, then Superman and Batman arrive, Batman thought that Bat-Mite was the weirdest one, Superman knows one way, while Mxy turns Jimmy into a six-armed Jimmy, a jungle boy marrying a gorilla, a swami, a werewolf, Bizarro-Jimmy, a brainiac Jimmy, a girl Jimmy, and then a porcupined Jimmy, Superman knocks on Mxy's head telling him a joke saying his name backwards, which tricked him to go back to the 5th dimension, thus turning Jimmy back to normal.

Lois ends the story, and Jimmy goes to her telling her what gifts Superman had gave them, a necklice for Lois, and a new signal watch for Jimmy.

A bank robbery has happened, as toy soldiers guarded it, Toyman steals the money, Superman attempts to stop him, his toy soldiers attack, though he uses his super-breath to blow them away, his toy cannons blast him, he uses his super-vision to destroy them, he super-visions his pogo stick and captures Toyman. Lois and Jimmy ask him any thing on the heist, Superman was about to say something, until the gifts he presumly gave to his 2 best friends glowed as he transform into an angry monster. He starts saying he's tired of crooks stealing from his city, and throws Toyman to the ground, and then goes near to kill him.
