MAJOR SPOILERS DISCUSSION: A Midsummer\'s Nightmare\\n
\\n Something is wrong with DC\\u2019s classic heroes. Each has forgotten the life in which he or she wore a flamboyant costume and protected the weak with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men. Even stranger, ordinary people everywhere are gaining their own powers in an insidious plan to cultivate Earth\\u2019s population as a race of super-soldiers.\\n
