Hmm. Did Hegga die when the legionnaire was a child? Probably thinking of some Marvel chick.
Nura?

Nope to all, and Hegga didn't die when the Legionnaire was a child.
Another BIG hint: there are TWO possible correct answers!

Garth was indeed one of them!
Hegga (and her twin) were childhood friends of Ayla and Garth back on Winath, and one of the few friends who stuck by Ayla when Garth left to look for Mekt!

The two possible answers hint was the clincher.
New Q shortly

The Legion of Super-Villains have voted in favour of Jimmy Olsen killing off Superman. Poor Jimmy is being mind controlled by Saturn Queen and is carrying a big rock of Kryptonite to do the deed. Voting in favour of sparing Superman is Brainiac. Why would Brainiac want to spare Superman?

Because... Superman was the last Kryptonian and Brainiac wanted him for his collection?

Because he's really a time-travelling Brainiac 5 in disguise?

It does have something to do with collections.

He wants to restart his bottle city collection, and needs Superman to help him get into the Fortress of Solitude and reclaim Kandor!

I saw what I presume was the cover of this story on social media just yesterday. Never read it though. No idea on the answer but keen to find out.

EDE has it. Supes agrees to tell Brainiac where Kandor is being hidden. It's a bit grim as Brainiac tells Supes he's going to kill millions of its citizens.
Over to you EDE!

No idea. Is this when Saturn girl rigged the election to sacrifice herself but Garth died instead? I will have to guess.
