Synopsis:
Jimmy Olsen agrees to test a new strength serum for Knuckles Claney. The Hyperon appears to give Jimmy super powers, but he is actually being set up by con men who want revenge for being sent to prison. Believing he now possesses super strength, Jimmy becomes a matador and fights a bull. He is nearly killed, but Superman rescues him.

Jimmy later discovers that the Hyperon did indeed work, only with a delayed reaction. He petetions the boxing commission to let me fight. Perry White tries to talk Jimmy out of it and is apparently killed when Jimmy knocks him down.

Jimmy is arrested and sent to jail. When he is attacked by the other prisoners, he learns that the Hyperon has worn off. Jimmy is then brought to the warden's office where Superman is masquerading as Perry White. The Man of Steel explains that he faked Perry's death to teach Jimmy a lesson. Since Perry is not dead, Jimmy is released from jail.
