Synopsis
  • Jimmy Olsen goes to Camp Superman as a counselor and finds that one camper already knows about his unreported adventures with Superman.
  • Jimmy Olsen goes undercover as a window-washer, a barber, a doorman, a bellhop, and a blind beggar to get a story on a group of mobsters.
  • Jimmy Olsen, at various meetings of his fan club, shows the members several alien artifacts which were given to him by Superman. At the same time, a group of tiny Supermen appear to him and aid him in his daily tasks, but only when nobody else is around. When he tries to convince Perry White that the little Supermen really exist, Perry thinks Jimmy's gone nuts. What the Emergency Squad is really after is an alien ray-gun in Jimmy's collection with Supergirl's fingerprints on it. They fear the prints could somehow expose her existence, but they also mistake a fake Green Kryptonite meteor in Jimmy's collection for the real thing, and have to trick him into bringing the ray-gun to work with him before they can take it away from him. Superman, at this time, is in the past on a scientific mission and could not be contacted by the Kandorians. They take the ray-gun to Supergirl, who erases her prints with heat-vision. Then the tiny Supermen return the weapon to Jimmy and fly back to Kandor before anyone else can see them. Later, Jimmy wonders if it hasn't all been a dream.
