Superman continues walking across the country, visiting Cincinnati, and then Danville, Ohio. He explains to Batman why he's doing this. Meanwhile, a fragment of New Krypton has infected a teacher, and she passes the infection on to the town drunk, who gains superpowers from it. He challenges and fights Superman. The fight destroys a lot of the town before the powers wear off. Although Superman fixes the damage, he is blamed for causing it.
