Synopsis:
Superman continues to have horrible dreams of the future brought on by exposure to Red Kryptonite. After the effects have worn off, the Superman Revenge Squad tries to trick the Man of Steel by launching a real invasion and making him think it is merely a dream. Superman notices that none of his friends are persecuting him as happened in each of his previous dreams. With this in mind, Superman stops the invasion, and the final effects of the Red Kryptonite have passed.
