Rex Mundi captures him and explains to him his origin; Rex Mundi is the world's first true ultra and he created the Alternate out of his own body, making an equal; The Alternate didn't agree with Rex Mundi's agenda of controlling the world and destroying all ultras because they were a risk to his agenda; The Alternate, Regina, opposed Rex Mundi since then. Rex Mundi created NM-E to be his ultra destroyer; While Rex reveals this information, Hardcase realizes that he's much more powerful than he thought; He uses this newfound power to time travel and stop his past self from saving the Squad; When that occurs, the original Choice kills the newest Choice. Hardcase arrives back in Rex Mundi's lair and is disrupted by an attack from the Alternate in NM-E's armor; The battle is waged as they release Hardcase from the lair; Realizing the fight was not his anymore and that he defeated Rex in his own way, Hardcase goes back to his office to find Choice there, ready to start a life together with him. 36 pgs., full color. $2.50.
