He fired his rocket, but it was never meant to hit Harjavti. As Superman swooped in to stop the rocket, it veered off, leading Superman away from the scene. Miss Martian headed straight for Deadshot, but the rocket flew up behind her. Superman blocked it, but with both of them distracted, Deadshot let loose a shot from his wrist-mounted gun.[4]

Deadshot tried to dispatch of his assailant with his gun, but Superboy was invulnerable. Enraged due to his Shield use, Superboy brutally beat Deadshot until Superman intervened.[2]
