Superman hears Major Disaster's message and flies back to the sixth-grade room, bursting in drunkenly through the floor. He explains that the city's major computer systems are down, and he needs "two certain microcomputers" to calculate how to save the city... Can you guess what brand these might be?

That's right, Alec and Shanna need to guide him with their TRS-80s. Ever astute, Alec asks Superman how he'll know when and were the disasters will happen.

This panel is more of a disaster than any of the Major's attempts.

1. "Energy residue"? What the hell? Even if there was such a thing, how would he distinguish between Major Disaster's "residue" and the "residue" of anything else?
2. If his super-brain has been affected by the kryptonite and is not functioning properly, how can his telescopic vision be working? Wouldn't he need his brain to process it?
3. Why can you see his telescopic vision? You can't see regular vision, or someone else's vision when they look through a telescope.
4. Why is the vision coming from four different directions at once? He only has two eyes, and besides, they're not even originating from the same point.
5. Look at the horrible perspective on the buildings, it's like they weren't even trying. Every single surface is slanted the wrong way.

Even for a free promotional comic, this is inexcusable. Pathetic.

Blah blah blah... Superman and the TRS-80 rescue a jetliner... hooray for microcomputers... then comes Disaster #2, a "full-scale flood" of Metropolis. (What other flood scales are there?) But don't worry! Superman and the TRS-80 have a solution... or something.

Unfortunately, the TRS-80 is only a number cruncher. It can't prevent really horrible ideas like this one. Superman and the Whiz Kids decide to evaporate all the water with Superman's heat vision, where it will drift away as "harmless" steam.

Ever been burned by steam? It's not fun. Instead of drowning, the cringing guy at far left will be steamed to death like an overgrown dumpling in a business suit. Congratulations, Superman, on making everyone's fate incalculably more gruesome.

But Superman doesn't have time to rest on his laurels after slaughtering those innocent people. That's right, it's time for Potential Disaster #3 -- a radioactive gas leak! "Millions of innocent people will be contaminated!" Superman breathlessly states the obvious.

On the next page -- the thrilling conclusion.
