Comments:
Superman appears only in flashback adventures as told by Jimmy Olsen. No time frame is given for when these flashbacks happen, so it can be assumed that they happened just before this story begins.

Synopsis:
Killer Burke, a hunted fugitive, hides in the apartment of Jimmy Olsen. Burke forces Jimmy to tell him the stories behind several of his Superman souvenirs, hoping one will enable him to escape. Burke then uses an invisibility belt invented by Luthor to slip past the police. However, the belt causes Burke to go blind. Without his sight, Burke is forced to surrender. When Jimmy turns off the belt, his sight is restored.
