(Superman: The Man of Steel #1) - The sun didn't destroy Eradicator, it just unleashed its full power. The Eradicator took a humanoid form and set about making Earth as ordered as Krypton. He began the process that would turn the yellow sun red and confronted Superman, demanding he take his rightful place as last son of Krypton and rule the Earth. Eradicator said he'd believe Earth had corrupted him if he refused, and in that case he would have to destroy the planet.

(Superman: The Man of Steel #26) - The Last Son arrived in Engine City to help Superman and Steel defeat Mongul and Cyborg Superman.

(Adventures of Superman #624, Superman II #201) - B-Tech caused a time storm in Metropolis, threatening to wipe it from the continuum. Eradicator and the Superman Family offered Steel assistance is averting disaster. Steel designed a Charged-Vacuum Emboitment powered by a fragment of Imperiex's armor and focused with the Phantom Zone projector, and he hoped to punch a hole in time and space that would give the storm somewhere to go to. The timestorm pulled Majestic to Earth from the Wildstorm Universe, and he told Steel his plan wouldn't work. Eradicator didn't trust the stranger and used the projector to confine him to the Phantom Zone. Steel sent the Superman Family to the heart of the storm with the C.V.E., but the storm only worsened. Majestic was freed from the Phantom Zone by Lois, and followed the Superman Family in order to destroy the C.V.E. After the timestorm reached a pitch the B-Tech disappeared and Metropolis was restored to normal. Majestic explained that the storm was a natural phenomenon and times' way of fixing itself, sending the B-Tech back into the future. Eradicator still distrusted Majestic, and vowed to destroy him if he got out of line.
