Superman and Superboy have vowed to capture the rogue, and contain the alien spaceship before anymore devastation could be caused. No communication has been made to anyone inside Coast City, and satellites have been unable to penetrate the cloud of smoke and dust.

Superman has asked the National Guard not to enter the disaster area until he can make certain that the aliens have been captured and the Rogue Superman brought to justice.

Green Lantern, resident hero of Coast City, could not be reached for comment. It is unknown at this time if he was in Coast City at the time of the explosion or not, or even if he survived. One has to wonder what kind of mental anguish it would cause if the city you had sworn to protect was destroyed right in front of your eyes.

British Parliament recently debated the wisdom of allowing a high-profile superteam to live in a priceless national treasure. Opponents cited the recent fires and numerous attacks, as well as in-team brawls and a missing suit of armor. Claims by JLI that the invaluable suit of armor walked off on its own were treated with scorn.

Team-member Ralph Dibny, known to the world as Elongated Man, has announced at the team's press conference that he is taking a prolonged leave of absence from the Justice League. He and his wife, Sue Dearbon Dibny, wish to return to globe-trotting, and Ralph has expressed a concern for Sue's safety. Ms. Dibny has been an honorary member of the Justice League since their operations moved to Detroit several years ago, and she has functioned as their representative since the JLI left the funding of the UN and Maxwell Lord.
