Synopsis:
Jimmy Olsen is telepathically drawn to a small island inhabited by alien ant-men. The ant-men explain that they were once human and came to Earth to escape a war. They want Jimmy to summon Superman, who can help them return home. Jimmy explains that Superman is away for the day, but will be back the following day.

While waiting for Superman's return, Jimmy stays on the island. The next morning the ant-men are attacked by strange white blobs. Jimmy realizes they are enlarged white blood cells from his own body. He deduces that the anti-gravity ray of the ant-men somehow enlarged them. He uses the ray to enlarge his red blood cells too. The enlarged red and white blood cells counteract each other, ending the threat. Jimmy then summons Superman, who helps the aliens return home.
