In this thrilling episode of The Superman Super Show, Ed and Steeven dig into The Coal Mine Heiress from Action Comics #34 (1941), where inheritance, betrayal, and explosive action collide deep within the earth!

When heiress Doris Laurey inherits her late father’s coal mine, her seemingly loyal Uncle Jim has sinister plans to claim the fortune for himself. From runaway coal carts to dynamite-fueled sabotage, Doris’s life is in constant peril as Uncle Jim pulls out all the stops to eliminate her.

Enter Superman, who leaps into action to thwart each murderous attempt with Golden Age flair. From stopping a speeding coal cart inches from disaster to surviving a deadly decompression chamber, the Man of Steel faces one trap after another in a relentless battle to save Doris and bring her treacherous uncle to justice.

Packed with wild stunts, bold heroics, and a touch of classic absurdity, this Golden Age gem highlights Superman’s indomitable spirit and quick thinking. Tune in as Ed and Steeven unravel every twist and turn in this coal-mine caper that shows why Superman is the ultimate champion of justice!

Action Comics 34 was published by DC in January, 1941.
