Mr. Mxyzptlk has access to fifth-dimensional technology that to third-dimensional beings may as well be magic. He can perform any feat imaginable. If he wished he could turn Superman into dust by snapping his fingers, it would happen. However, he's not actually malevolent like most villains, so he uses his powers doing things that are more annoying than anything else. Edit
"Mister Mxyztplk" məksɪtzpʌlk was introduced as an imp from the fifth dimension. Not being bound by our physical laws, he could do things that seemed to be magical. In his first appearance, Mxyztplk wreaked havoc across Metropolis by using his powers to pull all manner of pranks. What's more, he destroyed Superman's worldview of himself. Mxyztlpk jumped out a window, causing Superman to think Mxyztlpk was committing suicide. Mxyztplk was not. An astonished Superman exclaimed "I — I thought I was the only man who could fly!!". Mxyztplk soon told Superman that he was a jester in his home dimension, explaining why he used his powers to play practical jokes.
Originally, Mxyzptlk had designs on conquering the planet for himself, but soon settled for tormenting Superman whenever he got the opportunity. His only weaknesses were that he could not stand being ridiculed and if he said or spelled his name backwards, Kltpzyxm (kil-tip-zee-zim [kɪltɪpzizɪm]), he was involuntarily sent back to his home dimension for a minimum of 90 days. Mxyzptlk would often look for ways to counter the latter weakness, but he always proved gullible enough for Superman to trick him time and time again. In the Golden Age, saying "Kltpzyxm" would not only bring Mxy back to the fifth dimension, but would bring anyone else saying it to the fifth dimension.
Mxyztplk appeared originally as a small bald man in a purple suit, green bow tie and purple derby hat. This was changed to a futuristic looking orange outfit with purple trim in the mid-1950s, although the hat remained. At around this time the spelling of Mxyztplk's name changed (by mistake) to "Mxyzptlk"
On one ocasoin Mxyztplk is tricked into giving nearly all of his powers to The Joker.
Superman is the only who can stop him, with the help of Mxyztplk. Superman is able to stop the Joker by pointing out that fact that Batman is above him -as The Joker never kills Bat's.
This shows that even with all of Mxyztplk powers there is always a weakness like saying his name backwards.
Alternate Versions of Mr.Mxyzptlk
Earth-One Mxyzptlk
This is the Silver Age Mxyzptlk.This version shows a not only mischevious but an evil Mxyzptlk that would sometimes kills his victim accidently while experimenting on them.This Mxyzptlk finally decided to prove his superiority over Superman by punishing the Kryptonian criminals in the Phantom Zone and spent the rest of his life teaching them "how to have fun".
According to the imaginary story "Whatever Happened to The Man of Tommorow",this Mxyzptlk spent his first 2 millinea not moving,another 2 millinea being good and the third 2 millinea being mischevious.According to this story,he would spend the next 2 millinea being evil,and the next 2 millinea after that being guilty over his evil deeds.
Earth-Two Mxyzptlk
This is the Golden-Age Mxyzptlk.This Mxyzptlk originates from the fifth dimensional of Zrfff,where magic instead of science were flourished.He works as a Royal Court Jester in his realm for King Brpxz,before he came to Earth and meeting the Golden Age Superman.
Unlike his other universe counterparts,this Mxyzptlk's powers are based on magic.Therefore,specific magic potion or incantations are required in order for Mxyzptlk tricks to affect someone.Though often potrayed as mischievious,he does not kill his victims,unlike his Earth-One counterpart.
