Helpless in the presence of Henry Miller in whose veins flows the deadly cryptonite which enables him to generate atomic power, Clark Kent, whom Miller knows to be Superman, was being slowly starved to death in a secret cellar. Miller, however, who plans to conquer the world for beaten Germany, became alarmed by a report that American scientists were creating

a defense against atomic energy. After eliminating Sidney, his henchmen, he departed to attack metropolis, leaving Kent too weak to escape from his concrete prison. Late that night, the terrific explosion shook the terrified city, and news spread swiftly that the huge stadium, the largest in the world, had been mysteriously destroyed, as all available

fire and police equipment was rushed through the scene of the disaster, now only a vast smoking crater. Elbridge Thomas, the mayor of Metropolis, has just returned to his home with police inspector Henderson. The two were in the mayor's study.

Listen. There isn't a particle of the stadium left inspector, not a square inch. How did this, this afferman do it? Well, we're not sure that he did do it, Mr. Mayor. Of course he did.

Didn't he call me just before midnight and tell me he was going to destroy the stadium in two minutes. Wasn't more than two minutes after that that the first explosion threw me out of bed.

Yes, I know, then. Don't tell me again that the big gas main might have might have done it. Runs under front street just north of the stadium and it wasn't touched. Yes, I know. Neither your men nor the fire department nor anyone else has been able to find trace of bombs or mines. Besides, no ordinary explosive could have obliterated that huge place so completely.
