The recovery of third-party encapsulation and grading expenditures when an asset is acquired at a discount below the physical cost of replacement grading fees, shipping, and insurance.
In Metropolis, Robin fights a bronze Superman statue that has come to life and reluctantly requests help from Superboy, who is watching and eating popcorn. While Jon keeps the statue occupied, Damian tracks the signal controlling it to a nearby building, where he finds and easily subdues The Puppeteer. He confiscates the miniature version of the statue the villain was using to control it, and makes the statue take a few more swings at Jon before breaking the miniature to free himself from the temptation to abuse it further. In a spaceship just outside the orbit of the Moon, a mysterious figure observes the battle and plots the death of the Super Sons. After arresting the Puppeteer, Jon and Damian rush off to their last day at the West-Reeve School before summer vacation. While Jon and the other kids celebrate, Damian tries to argue his teacher into giving him extra credit for a long and abstruse essay on the philosophy of physics he wrote for a recent exam. Their classmate Georgia invites them to a pool party, but Damian explains that he and Jon will be otherwise occupied during the summer. At their newly-repaired headquarters, the boys make some final upgrades and revel in the prospect of a summer with little parental supervision (which, to Damian's annoyance, Jon incessantly refers to as the "Summer of Super"). They head to the Mall of Metropolis to confront a monster who is terrorizing the populace, but are ambushed by his allies, a group of alien children imitating Earth villains who call themselves the Gang. Kid Deadshot shoots a device into Robin's chest which wraps the young hero in constricting bandages, and the Gang's leader, Rex Luthor, reveals that he knows Jon and Damian's secret identities. Rex uses a box of Gold Kryptonite to drain Jon's powers, then attacks him with a powered gauntlet

The boys are looking forward to their summer vacation from school, but they are attacked by a band of aliens who have modeled themselves on several well-known Earth villains.
The Puppeteer helps the Gang put Superboy under their control so that he can steal the Hypercube from the Fortress of Solitude. Joker Jr. betrays his teammates to help the boys escape, but the synthetic Gold Kryptonite turns Red and splits Superboy into a red and a blue version.
The duplicate Superboys' constant bickering gets in the way of the fight against the Gang. Kid Deadshot thought that he had killed Joker Jr., but the Space Cabbie shows up at just the right moment for the heroes.
After the boys are rescued by the Space Cabbie and Joker Jr., they travel through dimensions and land on a gloomy world near a rundown old mansion. Once inside, Superboy's duplicates merge, then he and Robin are attacked by demons and meet up with adult versions of themselves.
Trapped in the House of Secret Mysteries by strange alien brothers, Superboy and Robin encounter adult versions of themselves and have to fight their way to freedom.
Jon and Damian befriend a strange little creature named Hukka, but when Rex Luthor shows up again and threatens it, the boys surrender. They are rescued by Tommy Tomorrow, Hukka's owner, but Tomorrow believes that all the boys are delinquents and takes them to Takron-Galtos, the prison planet.
