Synopsis:
Toy maker Willie Wonder becomes possessed by an insane alien entity named Zor. It causes Willie to create various inventions that he then gives to criminals. The inventions allow the crooks to enact impossible crimes.
The Duna, the race from which Zor comes, contact the JSA for assistance. The JSA separates to battle six different gangs using Willie's amazing inventions. Hawkman battles crooks using an anti-gravity ray; Dr. Mid-Nite fights an invisible gang; Green Lantern meets a gang that can become strong giants; The Atom squares off against a gang of human flies; Johnny Thunder tackles a gang in an advanced submarine; and Flash battles crooks with a digging machine.
After their individual battles, the JSA converges on Willie Wonder's workshop. They force Zor out of the inventor's body, where the Duna trap him. Willie is restored to normal and resumes making innocent toys including statues of the JSA.
