Synopsis:
While visiting a new outdoor exhibit called Science City, both Superman and Batman encounter strangely powered crooks. The exhibit has also been encased in an unbreakable force bubble, preventing anyone from entering or leaving.
Superman is able to follow the crooks and learns that they were given their powers by an alien. Superman, Batman, and Robin then impersonate the crooks and go to the alien vessel. They are told by the alien that they have been used as part of an invasion plot, but Superman destroys the alien ship and successfully stops the planned invasion.
