Morgan Edge and his men returned to Lex Luthor's submarine.
Luthor stood staring at the water inside his chamber.
"So, Mr. Edge," Luthor, still faced the opposite way, "how much money have you stolen?"
"None, Mr. Luthor."
"WHAT!" shouted Luthor in an outrage, turning around to face and glare at Edge.
"I'm sorry, sir. My men and I were thwarted by Superman and Superboy."
"What a coincidence. Morgan Edge, my lead mobster in the gang. Before Dr. Dox died, what do you think he would've wanted you to do?"
"Um, look to you as my new boss and take orders from you."
"WRONG! DOX WOULD'VE WANTED YOU TO BE A MORE RELIABLE SERVANT TO ME AND AT LEAST, JUST AT LEAST DO WHATEVER YOU CAN TO DEFEAT SUPERMAN AND SUPERBOY!"
"I'm sorry, sir."
"Just leave my chamber, please," sighed Luthor in annoyance.
"Right away, sir."
"Oh, and Morgan. One thing."
"Yes, sir."
"Train your men back in The Superman Revenge Squad a little better, yeah."
"Whatever you say, sir," said Edge.
And he left the chamber.
Luthor's henchwoman, Kitty Kowalski, held her dog in her arms and stood at another edge of the chamber.
"Lex," she said quietly, "are you okay?"
"OKAY? AM I OKAY, KITTY? WHAT DO YOU THINK?"
Kitty just stood quiet.
The dog trembled in fear.
"I'VE BEEN PUTTING UP WITH THAT SUPER PAIR FOILING MY PLANS FOR OVER A YEAR AND I'M SICK OF IT!"
"Sorry I asked."
"Oh, Kitty," sighed Luthor, "I'm afraid I'll have to find another way to defeat Superman and Superboy. And that is to find another way to manufacture my latest greatest invention."
He pulled off the curtains and claimed "Cyborg Superman and Superboy-Prime."
The dog whimpered in fright at Luthor's invention.
Kitty backed away in disgust. She respected her boss very well but was quite hesitant with his plans. That proved when she foiled his plan to destroy the United States.
"Kitty," said Luthor, "what do you think of this invention?"
"It's great, Lex," said Kitty, only meaning to show her boss some respect, "just great."
"Good then. I'm glad you think so, too. With these super-clones of Superman and Superboy, I shall get my revenge on them both and defeat them once and for all."
