The man had lost one world, Kara. I'd like to think he couldn't bear the idea of another being destroyed-- Even my world! He cared for his people, felt himself responsible for their death. Maybe he was just paying off that debt!

Synopsis for "Curse of the Kryptonite-Man!"

When Supergirl is attacked by alien spacecraft which streak off afterward, she trails them to Metropolis, where Superman is fighting the Kryptonite Man, a powerful Kryptonian primitive whose body radiates Kryptonite energy. The spacecrafts are piloted by the Seeders, an alien race whose commander, Lord Sed, has lost a hand in battle with the Kryptonite Man. The Kryptonite Man mistakenly thinks that Superman and his kind destroyed Krypton, but, when he is attacked by the Seeders, he breaks off combat to attack the aliens. Supergirl and Superman battle both Seeders and Kryptonite Man, but the latter two parties eventually destroy each other.
