Influenced by crystals Mordru created in Superboy's time and cast by Superboy into space, Chameleon Boy takes Ultra Boy's place and visits Superboy. Ultra Boy alerts Brainiac 5 and Lightning Lad to the switch and they visit Superboy as well, but Chameleon Boy, as Superboy, assures them that he has everything under control.
