In "Plague of Plastic People," Plastic Man tracks a bank robbery gone wrong, only to find the culprit has vanished—leaving behind a trail of strange, malleable bodies. With help from Woozy Winks and F.B.I.

On Dopi Island, Woozy Winks seeks a quiet escape from his usual crime-fighting duties—only to find himself plunged into a royal crisis. With the island’s people furious at their extravagant king, and a plot brewing to assassinate him unless he returns stolen funds by Saturday, the timing couldn’t be worse. When the king’s advisors spot a startling resemblance between Woozy and their monarch, they hatch a plan: make the hapless hero stand in as king—just long enough to be killed, so they can keep the king’s fortune.
