An alien named [[The Master (trope)|The Master]] plots to take over the galaxy, and [[Superman]] must join forces with his worst enemy and childhood friend [[Lex Luthor]] to stop him.
A 1970s [[Superman]] novel by [[Elliot S! Maggin]]. It was originally proposed as the idea for a Superman movie, and the novel was released as a companion to the first Superman movie - although the plot and characterization (especially that of Luthor) differ greatly from the movie. (Even the location of Krypton is different; in the movie, Superman claims he comes from another galaxy, while in this novel Krypton is said to have orbited Antares.)
