Superman uses his mind-prober ray to recall Zo-Mar, a Kryptonian criminal shot into space before the discovery of the Phantom Zone, and his mind-slaving card. Superman and the Challs find Zo-Mar, but he enslaves them all with his card. The card, however, inhibits Kryptonian super-powers, and when Superman and the Challs trick Zo-Mar into grabbing the card, they make him weak enough that Superman can knock him out and send him to the Phantom Zone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDick discusses the coming of British talent to DC comics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOn-sale date from DC Releases #15.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e - Cover colorist credit from Greg Theakston.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGive Me Power...Give Me Your World! - Credits for script, pencils and inks confirmed from Julius Schwartz's editorial records, provided by DC Comics.\r\n\r\nPages 3-9 were originally created as a Challengers of the Unknown story to appear in Adventure Comics (DC, 1938 series) #498.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e - Letters from: Neil Ahlquist, Kevin Lawless, Rick Steel, and Michael Pickens.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe British Are Coming!
