Bender Bellows was an enemy of Plastic Man

Bellows was a tough career criminal with a history of theft and murder. Plastic Man assisted the local DA to bring him in, as they had the indictment ready and sought the death penalty.

Anticipating an arrest, Bellows hoped to kill the DA by sending him arsenic-laced candy. Plastic Man tried to arrest him at the drug store, but Bellows ingested a medicine that made him incredibly happy. The chemist had just created this concoction to cure Woozy Winks of a bad tummy, and was a painkiller so strong it made him take any injury with a smile on his face. He escaped with an extra bottle of Happiness Juice.

He used the juice to make other people happy and not worried about seeing crimes. He went on a robbery spree under the moniker "Mr. Happiness". He also poisoned the DA, who he saw dining in a restaurant. Woozy convinced him that wasn't the DA, who was still in his office. That was actually a trap laid by Plastic Man. Though Bellows nearly managed to destroy the evidence against him, he was defeated and arrested.
