“The Bride of Bizarro!”

In "The Bride of Bizarro!", Bizarro’s latest scheme takes a bizarre turn when he tries to keep Superman from revealing that a duplicate—New Bizarro—has proposed to Lois Lane. With a kryptonite meteorite in hand, the chaos escalates as the two versions of Bizarro clash, forcing Superman to intervene. Otto Binder’s clever script and Al Plastino’s expressive art bring the absurdity to life, while Curt Swan’s cover captures the moment with classic flair.

Bizarro keeps the real Superman from revealing to Lois that she has been proposed to by Bizarro's duplicate, whom he calls New Bizarro, with a kryptonite meteorite, but Lois realizes New Bizarro is not the true Man of Steel. But New Bizarro doesn't give up easily, and the duplicates fight each other. Bizarro seeks out Superman's help and destroys the kryptonite, turning it into a dust cloud which destroys New Bizarro. Bizarro resumes courting Lois, until Lois creates a duplicate of herself so that Bizarro can have his own Bizarro-Lois.
