Kon was completely in awe, lost and confused when he met his 'Father' Superman, he explains the Jon Kent swap vaguely to the Doctor as 'acting out as a rebellious teen' and glosses over it somewhat lying that there were other clones of him that had arrived while he was a herald of the cosmic being, Oracle, mentioning nothing of the Legion of Supervillains. Kon explains how Jon wanted to alter the timeline and was stopped. Kon may have been left behind with the Titans disbanding and then reforming without him.

On inspection, Hitler is shown the sole occupant of the space vessel, which is a young male child, who is both incredibly strong and bulletproof. Hitler believes that the child is the "Superman. The Overman. The great man of history sent from the future." It is 1939. 17 years later, Overman, decked in an outfit inspired by American comic books, strides before the German army, as America falls before his irrepressible might. Decades later, Overman is consumed with nightmares about the death of Overgirl, a female clone of himself, whom he loved like a sister, and a strange dilapidated building. Overman attends the memorial for Overgirl, and lights an eternal flame, which is quickly snuffed out by the terrorist attack of Uncle Sam and the Freedom Fighters, in the form of the Human Bomb. The Human Bomb is captured and tortured by the New Reichsmen. However, unbeknownst to the Reichsmen, Human Bomb is an actual bomb that stores energy, and the torture aided in charging him to knock the Eagle's Nest, an approximation of the JLA Watchtower, out of orbit.

  Split between the House of Secrets and the House of Mystery, both the League and the Insurgency seek a chance to regroup and address the problem that is Trigon battling Mxyzptlk. Cyborg postulates that since Trigon is involved, the best remedy would be to wake Raven. However, no Leaguer is equipped to do such, as a force is what renders Raven unconscious, and they have no means to belay it. The Insurgency believes that it may be possible to transport Trigon and Mxyzptlk to the Void, a dimension from which they would not be able to return, but would need the assistance of Captain Marvel to do so. Deadman goes to the League and convinces Billy Batson to trust him with the plan concocted. However, due to the massive amount of magical energy being used, whatever held Raven asleep weakens, and she awakens.

  Dan Jurgens & Jeff King, Ethan Van Sciver, Ethan Van Sciver
  Superman is in an empty void. He remembers being infected by the Doomsday virus, that Brainiac was behind it, and pulling both himself and Brainiac (Vril Dox) into a blackhole. He is confronted by 'Omni-Brainiac' - an impossibly large creature from which all other versions of the character extend from. Omni-Brainiac tells Superman he has destroyed a "promising experiment." Omni-Brainiac shows Superman all of the deaths he has experienced in various universes and timelines. Omni-Brainiac has endlessly watched Superman subdue each Brainiac extension. He has watched Superman die, but never by his own hand. Superman's rage manifests itself in a blast of heat vision. It does no good. Omni-Brainiac electrocutes him, informs Superman that he has the information about cities that he needs, and leaves to recover Superman's (New 52) timeline. In a show of raw strength and power, Superman breaks free from his manacles. He escapes to find he is stranded on a barren planet, with no stars to guide him home. He is confronted by what appears to be Silver Age Brainiac (His physical form continues to change, cycling through different versions of the character). In actuality, he is a physical avatar of the planet. A sentient, living intelligence. He is a servant to Omni-Brainiac and is tasked with ensuring the survival of Brainiac's collection of cities. The avatar wants to know which city Superman belongs to. Superman questions his identity. When he realizes that Omni-Brainiac has not come back with a (New 52) city, the avatar expels Superman from the planet. Superman does not belong yet. His memory is erased. He will remember all he has learned "when it is time." Superman's questioning of the avatar's identity, and his master's plan, causes the planet incarnate to experience an identity crisis. He takes a unique form and name, Telos. He decides on a clear path. He will determine which city will return to the universe and which shall perish. Only the strongest will survive.

• Convergence #8 (May 27, 2015)
  Jeff King & Scott Lobdell; Stephan Segovia, Carlo Pagulayan, Eduardo Pansica, Ethan Van Sciver; Jason Paz, Scott Hanna, Trevor Scott, Stephan Segovia, Ethan Van Sciver
  The temporal energy released upon Deimos' death is building at the planet's core. Once the power reaches critical mass, it will blow. The fallout will destroy the entire multiverse. To repair the situation, Parallax wants to take every Green Lantern ring and harness all willpower. Telos binds him in liquid metal. After killing Deimos, the heroes no longer trust him. The Flashes can feel the vibrational frequency accelerating. The countdown has begun. Waverider, Booster Gold, and Goldstar show up to help. But there is too much harmful energy for anyone to absorb. Anyone, except for Brainiac. Waverider frees the villain from banishment. The heroes attack. Brainiac vows to destroy them all. But Pre-Flashpoint Superman reasons with the Collector of Worlds. If he destroys the heroes, the temporal crisis will destroy everything, including Brainiac himself. Logic wins the day. Brainiac has a sudden change of heart. Telos asks him to stabilize the planet and save the multiverse. But Brainiac feels the need to opine first. He was once Brainiac from Colu. He traveled across the universe to collect knowledge. But when he observed the Flashpoint event and survived, he wanted to become something more. He traveled beyond the Source Wall. He traversed the multiverse and saw other Brainiacs. He wanted to evolve as the Monitors had. He experienced the previous Crisis-level events. It transformed him into what he is now. A powerful being with cancerous growths from exposure to the multiverse. Regretful, he wants to return to what he was before. Dick has no interest in helping him. But Telos takes the tip of Brainiac's giant finger. He sees past his master's mistakes. In the depths of Earth 0's solar system, all of the heroes have returned to be with their loved ones, except Superman and Supergirl. They look on the Planet Telos. Superman tells Kara they need to hope that whoever is fighting the good fight down there, wins. Brainiac severs Telos' connection to the planet. He takes control of the orb himself. He will channel the temporal energy and use it to send everyone home. This should make everything right again. But Brainiac cannot send everyone home. The original CRISIS is too strong. It prevents him from sending the heroes back. Unless it is changed, the multiverse will collapse into one universe again, as it did before. Pre-Crisis Supergirl and the Flash must return to the original Crisis and make their ultimate sacrifice. That will allow the others to be sent back. Most will go back to doomed timelines. But instead of going back to their ill-fated universes, Pre-Flashpoint Superman suggests, that he too, be sent to the original Crisis. There, he can change history and stop the multiverse from being destroyed in the first place. Parallax, Lois, and the baby will go too. Though not shown on panel, they are sent back to COIE and are successful. Each world still exists, but they have evolved. Two double page spreads show multiple Earths. Behind each planet, is a faded group of heroes representing old continuity. In front of each planet, is the new updated group that has taken their place. For example, the Pre-Flashpoint trinity are faded in the background, while the New 52 Justice League are vivid, front and center. Brainiac violently cleanses the planet Telos. He cannot leave a single trace of the cities behind. The Earth 2 heroes have no home to return to. Their planet was destroyed before Convergence began. Therefore they are left to be cleansed with the rest of the planet. Green Lantern protects them in a bubble. Brainiac is pulled back into his reality, Earth 0. With neither Brainiac nor Telos tied to the planet, the natural biosphere is no longer repressed. Green Lantern can connect to the 'Green.' At his prodding, the planet flourishes. Communicating to the heroes via sky visage, Telos tells them that the planet has shifted into Earth 2's universe. His memory has been unlocked. He knows his true name. And his name is... (I have no idea; They don't say). Green Lantern receives a duress signal. The Earth 2 refugees of the battle with Darkseid are alive. Dick Grayson's son is onboard one of the ark ships. The citizens of Earth 2 will rebuild on the thriving planet Telos, their new Earth.
