While on an experimental rocket, Clark and Lois encounter the alien Brainiac, who plans to shrink and bottle the great cities of Earth and then use them to repopulate his planet. Superman gets inside Brainiac’s ship when the villain snatches Metropolis and there finds a bottle with the Kryptonian city of Kandor. He enters the bottle and with the help of a scientist there restores the cities of Earth while Brainiac lies in suspended animation for his trip home. Because there is not enough power to restore Kandor, Superman places the city in his Fortress, as Brainiac rockets away empty-handed.

The Infantino plot credit is dubious. This origin is based strongly on the corresponding story in Superman (DC, 1939 series) #53 (1948).

In color; the story was originally printed in black and white, with shading. The art on all pages was extended on the edges (not by the original artists) to widen them for reprinting in Limited Collectors' Edition (DC, 1972 series) #C-31 (1974); that's why many captions are not left-aligned.
