He deduces the secret identities of Batman and Robin, and forces them to follow his orders while they look for the Metals Mob, stealers of things like iridium, tantalum, tungsten and "all those rare metals." It turns out the Kyler Aluminum Co. is fencing the metals, and smuggling them inside hollow bars of aluminum. Just as the gang is caught, Barney collapses and his head shrinks back to normal.

He is hoping to find something at the site of a UFO landing, but loses his footing and is injured. An alien heals him and explains that his ship is normally invisible.

The alien arrives and begins treatment for a brain short circuit. Nyxly raises havok and Jimmy gets an idea from the alien's comment that Superman would be in a suggestible state until he has healed. They give Superman a remote earpiece and Jimmy directs Superman's assault, followed by Lois, then by Edge. After the battle the alien diagnoses the problem as Kryptonian Sleeping Sickness, against which he was never vaccinated because he left Krypton before it was scheduled. -- Call no.: PN6728.1.N3S8no.409 ----------------------------------------------------- Brain size of women.
