Comment(s):
- This story takes place on November 29, 2994.
- The death of the Time Trapper in the previous issue results in the creation of the universe that would have existed if the Time Trapper and the Legion had never existed. Without those balancing powers Mordru has dominated the universe unchallenged for the last seventeen years.
Synopsis: - A group of underground resistance fighters conducts a spell to restore the previous order by imitating the Trapper's manipulations and substituting new pieces for those destroyed with the Trapper. Mordru's cunning wife insists on conducting the spell herself to get the chance to become the balancing force that takes the place of the Trapper in the new order. She performs the awful ritual and once again the universe blinks out of existence.
