"The Threat Of The Thrutans"


A research satellite from the distant planet Thruta enters the Solar System on a scientific mission to harmlessly observe Earth. When a solar flare damages the satellite, its crew is forced to detach from the main rockets, thus stranding them in Earth's orbit.


Now in need of technology that will help them return to their home world, the marooned Thrutans launch a series of explosive devices in what they think is merely a show of strength. It is up to Superman to protect the city from the fallout of the Thrutans' careless attack.


Will the Man of Steel be able to stop the rampage of the extraterrestrial menace before the shockwaves of their powerful weapons destroy Metropolis and its surroundings?
