Disclose Notes: Story continued from Superman (DC, 2006 series) #650 and continues in Superman (DC, 2006 series) #651. A Clark Kent logo is used instead of the Superman logo. The Superboy statue with flowers under it is the first hint that Superboy will not survive Infinite Crisis (which was running concurrently with this issue). The hideout at Track 13 is an homage to Superman the Movie, where the entrance to Luthor's hideout was off of Track 13.
