Solaria tracks down 2 missing special operatives that are being held and interrogated in an underground facility by a cybernetically enhanced hired gun. She engages with the cyborg but from the first strike, she realizes she's in for it. She'll later realize the cyborg is constructed with a kryptonium derivative intentionally designed to weaken Solaria should they encounter each other. She holds for quite a while and doesn't even try and use her powers falsely thinking she's got the fight under control. Before she knows what's happening, she finds herself on the losing end.
