Supermania.Toxzon escapes from jail and seeks vengeance on Max Steel by literally wiping Copper Canyon from the map. N-TEK keeps their eyes open, especially Steel who gets some ideas from the comic book of a prison guard on superhero-ing. Steel's fascination with the comic book hero goes over board when he spends all night reading about superheroes and orders boxes of comics. When Toxzon attacks a chemical treatment plant, Steel unveils a "new" uniform resembling a stereotype caped hero and others reminiscent of different heroes. Toxzon and Max Steel meets in the warehouse outside the facility, but Steel's ridiculous behavior allows Toxzon a chance to escape. Steel refuses to alter the suit, much to Max's humiliation, but Berto finds out Toxzon's plan: poisoning the city's water supply. When Max and Steel find Toxzon, he is actually planning on creating acid rain strong enough to melt buildings. The heroes battle an army of Goop soldiers with CYTRO, who gives Max the counter-agent to end the acid storm. Steel fakes losing the 1-on-1 fight with Toxzon and injects the counter-agent into the villain, who ends the storm on his own. But Toxzon still manages to escape. When Max finally asks why Steel is obsessing over cliché comic book references, Steel sees himself in the alien off-world origins of some heroes. The two reconcile, and agree to return to the primary uniform.
