The real Morgan Edge escapes his imprisonment within the Galaxy Communications building, and the Morgan Edge clone recalls how Simyan and Mokkari created him at Darkseid's behest from cells taken from the real Edge, so that he could be their pawn. The Edge clone tricks Superman and Lois Lane into thinking that the real Edge has gone insane, capturing him, and turning him over to a phony "psychiatrist" in his employ. But the real Edge escapes again, and the clone realizes he must be found before Darkseid learns of his blunder.
