Bizarro's Magic is So Powerful it Converted Doctor Fate

Bizarro isn't often a serious villain, but he lost control and saw red when the Bizarro World went missing. In his fury to find his home, Bizarro crashed into the Sorcerer's World, demanding answers. The magicians there inundated him with spells thinking him just as weak to magic as Superman is. Unfortunately, it only served to make Bizarro even more powerful than he already was. Bizarro went back to Metropolis and began working on a spell to bring Bizarro World back. Unfortunately, all he managed to do was turn Metropolis and its population into a city of Bizarros.

Those who have worn Doctor Fate's mystical helm have been blessed with some of the greatest magic powers in the DCU. Fate is the greatest agent of the Lords of Order and in theory, is one of the strongest magic s short of the Spectre. But Bizarro's upgrade has done the impossible and turned Fate into a Bizarro. One can imagine what kind of chaos he could cause if he didn't have other powerful magic s keeping him in check. But if Bizarro is more powerful than Fate now, what does this mean for Superman's newly empowered nemesis?

There's no shortage of magic threats in the DCU with villains like Felix Faust or Eclipso. But few of them have been able to conjure up a spell that's taken a hero as mighty as Fate off the board. If Bizarro's upgrade is permanent, there's no limit to what he could do next. Sure, this time he decided to turn Earth into a Bizarro World, but he could come up with something even more destructive if he wished it. If Superman doesn't do something to get rid of Bizarro's new magic powers, the DC Universe is in serious danger.
