Poor Bizarro. It seems everything he does ends in disaster. And there's this other Superman trying to capture him. This issue explores what a well-meaning character he really is. He shares the regular Superman's feelings for Lois, who sees this and reluctantly helps trap him. Enter the real bad guy, Luthor, who has legal claim to Bizarro, whom his company created, and whom he plans to use to cure the ailment consuming his cloned body, regardless of what becomes of poor Bizarro.
This story features my favorite version of Bizarro. It's a less-corny version with a more plausible backstory. I wish he stuck around. This version was more good than others. You just can't help but feel sympathy for him in this issue.
