“The Four Horsemen”

Gog reveals that he lost his parents in the first Doomsday fight, and blames Superman for that. An army of Gogs plucked from time now attacks Superman. Doomsday joins the fight, on Superman's side (for now). Superman attacks Gog one more time, but loses. Gog then imagines the future into over 500 years, but, although beaten Superman never yields, and says he would never take a life. This affects future Gog (and future Doomsday), so he goes back and heals Superman at the point of the end of the original fight, which enables Superman to defeat that Gog. Superman then rushes to Smallville to find the Gog attacking there already dead. The present-day Gog finds something, and slips away.
