Ralph Hinkley was minding his own business, when his car mysteriously drove itself out into the desert. Ralph was visited by aliens, who had decided to endow him with superhuman powers to fight the battle for truth justice and the American way. To this end, they gave him a special suit and an instruction manual. Unfortunately, Ralph managed to lose the instruction manual before getting the hang of using the suit. He then reluctantly teamed up with Bill Maxwell played by Robert Culp who wanted Ralph to use the suit for large missions like ending the Cold War.

Trivia
- After the attempted assassination of Ronald Reagan, William Katt's
character's name was changed from Ralph Hinkley to Ralph Hanley to
avoid association with would-be assassin John Hinkley Jr.
- The producers faced a lawsuit from DC Comics accusing them of plagerizing Superman with this series. However, the suit was rejected as the judge ruled the lead character was sufficiently different, especially since the basic concept of the character who is given an alien uniform and weapon to fight evil is far closer to another DC Comics character, Green Lantern.
