Synopsis
Superboy goes back to the Old West of the 19th Century, assumes a new
secret identity, runs across outlaw Jess Manning, his son Toby (the
future Terra-Man*), an alien currency-thief, and decides to return to his
home era.
* Tobias “Toby” Manning (alias Terra-Man) nacque nel west degli Stati Uniti nel 1878, figlio del fuorilegge Jess Manning; all’età di dieci anni incontrò (in questa storia) un alieno chiamato il Collezionista – famoso per collezionare cose di grande rarità, sia oggetti che esseri viventi – il quale lo rapì e gli cancellò la memoria facendogli dimenticare la morte del padre, ucciso proprio dal Collezionista in sua presenza. Tobias allora lasciò la Terra e viaggiò per molti anni con il Collezionista rubando per lui a man bassa nei vari pianeti dell’universo, con il nome di Terra-Man. Col tempo però riacquisì la memoria e allora si vendicò uccidendo il Collezionista. Una volta ritornato sulla Terra scoprì che l’alta velocità (delle astronavi con cui viaggiava nello spazio, non del frecciarossa o di italo) aveva rallentato il suo invecchiamento e che sulla Terra invece era passato oltre un secolo. Qui allora egli continuò la sua attività criminale, scontrandosi anche più volte con Superman.

Synopsis
Batman uses the Power Charger in the Fortress of Solitude to gain superpowers and rescue Superman from the Weapon Master,
who has captured the Man of Steel and is using a special machine to
drain his powers. Batman knows the machine will kill him, but he needs
the powers to save his friend.
Batman arrives at the Weapon Master’s hideout and releases
Superman in time. The two superheroes battle the villain, but the Weapon
Master uses his whole array of weapons to stop them. Batman and
Superman have to fight a series of obstacles and destroy all the weapons
used against them. The distraction created by the Weapon Master is
enough to allow him a clear escape and the heroes are unable to follow
him because the effects of the Power Charger have started to affect
Batman. Knowing that his friend could die, Superman takes Batman to the
Weapon Master’s special machine to drain the powers from Batman before
he dies and the plan is successful. Batman no longer has powers, but
will live and although the Weapon Master escaped, the heroes will be
ready to confront him when he returns.
