Unfortunaley, "The Sidewinder Strikes!" is another really, really weak episode. There is so much going on and yet, nothing at all.
So, a rodeo show comes to town and - who would've guessed - at the exact same time a rodeo-themed art robber gang appears. They ride mechanical, flying horses and are led by the masked villain Sidewinder, yet another original character (which bears a striking resemblance to the very classic Spider-Man villain Crime-Master though).
There's a fight in an arena and criminal clowns, so basically yet another evil circus thing just like in the episode "Triangle of Evil".
The only thing that somehow works in this episode is that they actually try to create a mystery about the Sidewinder's identity but it's painstakingly obvious who it is from the very beginning.
