** At the end of the issue, Michael Holt has taken up the mantle of ComicBook/MisterTerrific and stands up to the Spectre, in defense of the same gangbangers who had tried to mug him earlier arguing they deserve a chance for redemption. The Spectre then backs off, privately musing that he deliberately gave Michael the chance to face off with him in order to boost his reputation and burnish the legacy that Terry Sloane left behind.

-->''A void exists and needs to be filled. No one can ever be replaced. Not your wife, not Terry Sloane, but their passing leaves a void that needs to be filled. Mr. Terrific served a purpose and that purpose isn't filled by Superman or Batman or even the Spectre. He worked at the street level. There is a need for that kinda hero today. You game?''
