Background[]
A being from the fifth dimension, Mister Mxyzptlk possesses the ability to warp reality, granting him near-omnipotence in the third dimension. He has proved more than a match for Superman on various occasions; luckily, he seems to be more of a prankster than a malicious entity. If tricked into speaking or spelling his name backwards, he is immediately returned to the fifth dimension for ninety days.
Involvement[]
- Mister Mxyzptlk has learned of the legends surrounding the mystical leprechaun, and has become intrigued by the tales of little green men using their powers to hide pots of gold from those that would seek to steal their treasure. This imp from the 5th-Dimension has appeared in Metropolis, where he uses his own powers to enact mischief in the guise of these legendary creatures.
