Synopsis:
Clark Kent and Lois Lane visit a stage show featuring three strongmen: Hercules, Atlas, and Samson. Clark finds that their strength is real and learns that they are going to use their strength to get jobs.

Lois’ investigations bring her to Professor Wilton, a scientist who is receiving a large sum of money from the strongmen. She finds a device in his lab which gives her super-strength as well. Lois shows off her new power, but Superman soon learns that the power wears off and the professor has skipped town.

Lois and Superman track down the strongmen to warn them about their fading strength. Each needs assistance as their abilities have failed them. Lois’ strength wears off as well. Superman rounds up the crooked scientist, who has swindled the men. Unfortunately the machine was destroyed by Wilton.
