The Band of Super-Villains
The name adopted by a trio of ordinary criminals after a visiting alien from a far distant planet has provided them with a set of special belts capable of endowing them with amazing powers, ostensibly, because he wants to enable them to become wealthy super-criminals in return for their promise of future aid in establishing a dictatorship on his native planet.
In reality, however, the belts, which actually release an alien element into the air, are part of a fiendish scheme to poison the Earth’s atmosphere and annihilate its people in order to pave the way for an alien colonization.
Batman, Robin, and Superman apprehend the Band of Super-Villains and the evil alien, who when he is finally cornered and defeated, blows himself and his spacecraft up, as that is the penalty for the failure of his mission.
