Back to Square One!
Metalo [George Grant] (Earth-2)
In "Back to Square One!", Metalo—Earth-2's relentless foe—strikes with a powerful energy beam that weakens Superman, then pushes his own armor and serum to new extremes in a bid to finally defeat the Man of Steel. With Lois Lane by his side, Superman retreats to a hidden mountain fortress to rebuild his strength, facing the challenge of regaining his full power before Metalo strikes again.
