If the Man of Steel succeeds, the imp promises to return to the 5th dimension. After making Superman battle cartoons brought to life, Mxyzptlk visits a television studio and is tricked by the Man of Steel into applying blue makeup. True to his word Mxyzptlk leaves Earth, and all the effects of his magic disappear.
