Synopsis for "Nasty Boys"
Clark Kent and Lois Lane are enjoying the fireworks in Kansas when suddenly a spaceship lands on the field. Clark changes to his Superman suit and fights with two armored hunters that speak in an alien dialect illegible to Superman. These two hunters are searching for a couple of rogue aliens hiding somewhere near that area, but Superman assumes they want to attack the civilians, so he tries to stop them. But their attacks are too strong, even for him. Superman takes off their masks and finds out their bodies are pure energy, and the armors are their containment shell, so he quickly disarms their armors to leave them in their natural state.
Suddenly, out of the bushes, the two rogue aliens appear and attack Superman. They are Dreadnaught and Psi-Phon, two aliens he fought in the past and were defeated by Clark Kent. [1] This time, Superman knows the trick behind their siphoning abilities, so he defeats Dreadnaught easily. Psi-Phon runs to the hunters' ship and surrenders. From inside the ship comes Dreadnaught's mate, who explains to Superman that they tend to journey through the universe looking for a battle, and she always follows them to extract them from the troubles they make. Dreadnaught and Psi-Phon return to the ship, and Superman suggests they visit Warworld if they ever feel like looking for a battle again. The ship sets off, but instead of going to space, they enter a secret military base in Wyoming.
Back in Metropolis, Jerry White is making an exchange with some Intergang drug dealers. When the dealers open the bag with money Jerry handed, they find it's filled with cockroaches. They assume he is crossing them, but he has no idea what's going on. The dealers open fire on Jerry and Jimmy, who just happened to be entering the nightclub and stepped in to try and save Jerry. Angelica Blaze walks toward their bloodied corpses and says they're coming with her.
