Wow. I just read the whole story, and I'm blown away. I love the insight into Jake's thoughts, and how, by saving Superman, Superman saved him. Along with the revelation. I was blushing along with Jake during the next-to-last phone call he made. Absolutely wonderful. 
"You need me. You wouldn't be much of a hero without a villain. And you do love being the hero, don't you. The cheering children, the swooning women, you love it so much, it's made you my most reliable accomplice." -- Lex Luthor to Superman, Question Authority, Justice League Unlimited
