The Prankster is haunted by his repeated defeats by Superman. He decides to use Superman in his crimes. He sends messages to the Daily Planet tipping off the Man of Steel. When Superman arrives on the scene, the Prankster tricks him into using his strength, speed, and invulnerability to unwittingly assist in the crime. To defeat the Prankster, Superman changes into his Clark Kent identity. He then purposefully trips in the path of the crook. The Prankster's escape is delayed, allowing him to be caught.
