Synopsis:
First Satra, then more citizens of 853rd Century Mercury gain access to the Rock of Eternity and the mysterious old man who lives there. Without access to their headnet, the citizens become confused, attacking the “old Wizard”, killing Satra. When returning to Mercury, they find the whole planet without their headnet and confuse the older Captain Marvel for a Flash family member. Fearing for the health of Tanist, who he had earlier confused with a young Freddy Freeman, Cap shares his powers with him invoking the boy to speak his name. Together, the two go in search of the visiting modern-day Flash.
