and the power.

the switch that turns
on the Brain.

to give Metropolis
brain freeze!
Mr. Freeze fires
his ice cannon.

goes off.
A train speeds
out of control!

the train.

the riders.

when to STOP.

on Mr. Freeze.

the ice.

the ice blaster.

to his ice cannon!
Superman uses
his heat vision
to melt the cannon.
“Get ready to cool off
in jail,”
Batman says.

the Brain.
It still works!
Teamwork saves
the city.
The Super Friends
celebrate
with ice cream!
