Synopsis for Superman and Batman: "Superman and Batman... Outlaws!"

A dead scientist's final invention throws Superman and Batman into a parallel world, where they must aid a heroic Luthor and Clayface team against an evil Superman and Batman.

The evil counterparts of Batman and Superman prepare a trap for the heroes to delay them while they try to use the scientific device to travel to Earth-One and impersonate the heroes in order to expand their crime empire. However, the good Luthor learns the truth in time and together with Clayface, the good Batman and Superman manage to capture their evil counterparts before they can travel to Earth-One. The good Batman suggests they use one of Luthor's brain-washing machines in order to turn the criminal Batman and Superman into law enforcers and that plan is completely successful. When the good Superman and Batman are returned to Earth, they consider doing the same thing to their Luthor and Clayface, but they realize that such a plan would never work.
