Superman: The Animated Series
Episode 33
Bizarro's World
Bizarro returns and causes problems. What doesn’t makes sense about this episode is how much time occurred between his first appearance and this episode. Lois Lane goes though how many near death experiences before she tries to find Bizarro again? Well Bizarro runs around causing havoc and Superman is around to clean up his mess. Lois puts herself in danger in this one trying to help Bizarro. Good intentions but she needs to use her brain. Superman is able to knock Bizarro out with a gas canister and Superman takes him to an uninhabited planet that he calls krypton. He also leaves him with a pet to take care of.
Being able to knock Bizarro out with a gas canister seems like a big weakness which can be exploited to take out Superman. The only logical difference might be Superman can hold his breath for an absurd amount of time and Bizarro is dumb and doesn't think to do that.
Superman basically banishes Bizarro but since he’s mentally challenged, sending him to the phantom zone would be too harsh. A nice green planet with no life is the best option. Ultimately it’s really just pushing your problems back another day. Bizarro is destined bust loose again and cause problems but there is no real answer for someone as strong as Superman but dumb as a rock.
