Synopsis:
Bizarro and his bride, Bizarro Lois Lane, have left Earth and founded a new world in the ruins of an ancient city on another planet. Lonely from their isolation, Bizarro creates another duplicator machine to create more Bizarros using himself and Lois as models. Soon the world is populated by hundreds of Bizarros.

Superman, while on a space mission, discovers the amazing Bizarro World. He discovers that everything is done backwards from the ways of Earth people. Lumps of coal not diamonds are valuable, dessert is served first at dinner, and movies are shown using the film’s negative.

Superman tries to assist the Bizarros by repairing a broken down house, but he is arrested. Superman has broken the Bizarro code, "Us do opposite of all Earthly things! Us hate beauty! Us love ugliness! Is big crime to make anything perfect on Bizarro World!"

Superman is sent to prison and awaits trial. The original Bizarro Lois Lane offers him a way out if he marrys her. He refuses and is convicted at his trial. As punishment the Bizarros prepare to change Superman into Bizarro form.
