When respected citizen Morton Craig is arrested for theft, Clark Kent smells a story—and Superman uncovers a sinister scheme involving a mysterious wonder drug, crooked chemists, and gangland rivalries.

Superman leaps into action, following a trail of deception and danger that leads to a ruthless racketeer named Carlin. With a factory pumping out addictive drugs and rival gangs vying for control, chaos reigns in Metropolis. But leave it to Superman to wreck the operation from the inside out—literally—by barreling through industrial machinery in a way only the Man of Steel can manage!

With plenty of twists, rivalries, and a whole lot of smashing, it’s Golden Age action at its most thrilling.
