“The Two Worlds of Superboy”

Continued from last issue... Superboy left Earth with Jor-El and Lara - but they're actors! Superboy faked the UFO and super-stunts. The hoax can end, for "Killer" Mason has been electrocuted. But a meteor strike forces them down to an asteroid. At home, Ma and Pa Kent will be honored as Superboy's adopted parents at a banquet. Only then do they find the cat hid a note from Superboy explaining the hoax! As Superboy returns the actors home, a fake Clark Kent takes his place at the banquet: a dummy made by Pa as a joke on Martha saves their secret!
