Universe of Evil is an episode of season 4 of Super Friends. It premiered on October 20, 1979.

Synopsis for "Universe of Evil"

Mount Vesuvius is in danger of erupting. In the normal universe, Superman is attempting to stop the volcano from erupting, while in a mysterious alternate universe, Superman's evil counterpart is attempting to cause the volcano to erupt. The eruption occurs, causing the two Supermen to exchange universes.

Superman finds himself in the alternate universe, where its counterparts of the Super Friends (called the Super Enemies) are evil, while evil Superman goes on a crime spree and deals with the Super Friends in their own universe. Fleeing from both the Super Enemies and from the authorities armed with Kryptonite weapons, the good Superman gets help from a professor at Metropolis University who gives him an anti-matter flask that would help him return to his own universe if he gets to the exact spot where he had entered the Super Enemies' universe. As Superman reaches the spot, he opens the flask and causes himself and his evil counterpart to switch places again and return to their respective universes.
