The Prankster

In "The Man Who Robbed the Mint," The Prankster concocts a clever scheme using a formula that strips green dye from paper money, turning bills into blank sheets. He lures people into surrendering their "worthless" cash, claiming he’ll restore them to real value—only to test his plan against Superman’s justice.
