Synopsis:
An alien from another dimension begins kidnapping notable men and taking them back to his world as living trophies. Superman sets himself up to be taken too. He is captured and taken to the alien world. The alien technology is able to imprison him, but he tricks the alien into helping him escape. Superman then traps the alien and rescues the captives. Finally, he returns everyone to Earth and destroys the device that allowed the alien to traverse dimensions.
