I'm you. Only better.
I'm like my father. The only hero in a world full of villians.
Like Sodom and Gomorrah, Blüdhaven falls. -- Infinite Crisis 4
Tell me, Lex Luthor-- how does it feel to be stupid?
Kara will help us, Superboy. And so will Kal-L. Whether they like it or not.
At last. It will be undone.
I’m going to fix everything.
The men and women plugged into the tower will help me re-form the core Earths. But I need the rest of the multiverse back as well. I need thousands and thousands of worlds. Worlds I can sift through like sand, one grain at a time, combining and mixing until I find it. Until I find the perfect earth.
The Superman of Earth-Two is the key to the return of the rest of the multiverse. For some reason I can’t explain or understand, and probably never will… everything comes from Superman.
[after creating, then destroying a new Earth] I plated this garden, Psycho-Pirate. I have every right to tend to it.
