STORYLINE – The Prodigal Son

Shape, Burbank, Arcanna, Nuke, and Hyperion (“Mark”) have been accidentally transferred to another universe (and additionally forward in time). Hyperion in the alternate universe (“Hyperion”) has been brainwashing super-powered beings to bring them under his control. He has just revealed this to Mark.

Hyperion, with Zarda, wants to return Mark to his normal universe, having himself visited a future possibility Hyperion who communicated the importance of control as an aspect of power years before (a role that he has just performed for Mark in issue #4). However, Mark will not voluntarily return with Shape, Burbank, Arcanna, and Nuke, whose powers brought them here in the first place.  Therefore, Hyperion decides to make himself and his Squadron of brainwashed heroes their common enemy, forcing them into a temporary alliance that will return Mark to his home dimension.
