Time Masters #7

In "Long Time Coming!", the Time Masters face a turning point as Tony leaves the team and Corky’s fate takes a tragic turn. Hal Jordan sends Rip, Cave, and Jeff back to Atlantis in 45,000 B.C., where they meet Arion and his daughter Kara—only for Rip to be suddenly granted Arion’s knowledge after saving her from an earthquake. With Arion’s warning ringing in his ears, Rip defies the past’s rules and vanishes into the time sphere to confront Vandal Savage, leaving the team in stunned silence as the sphere returns empty. Written by Bob Wayne and Lewis Shiner, with art by Art Thibert and cover by Art Thibert, this 1990 DC issue delivers a haunting, pivotal moment in the series’ timeline.
