Synopsis:
After returning from a mission of peace to three alien worlds, Supergirl’s touch becomes deadly to other super-beings. Streaky and Krypto perish when she touches them, then Comet and even Mxyzptlk are killed. Distraught, Supergirl contacts Superman who exiles her to the Phantom Zone.

Once Supergirl has disappeared, Superman transforms into an alien from the planet Mutor. The alien had impersonated Superman and the other super-beings in order to trick Supergirl. When reporting back to his leaders on Mutor, the alien is startled when Supergirl arrives. She saw through the hoax and created a fake Phantom Zone projector. After outwitting the aliens, Supergirl gets them to agree to a peace treaty with Earth.
