Synopsis for Superman: "The Lost-and-Found Mystery"Edit

(adapted from plot summary at dcindexes.com)
The Prankster places newspaper ads offering large rewards for lost items. When several people begins searching for a lost needle in a haystack at the state fair, it starts a cattle stampede. Superman stops the stampede then investigates the Prankster's scheme.

The Prankster has access to embarrassing information on several wealthy men and is using the fear of exposure to make the men pay the large rewards to his men. When Superman gets involved, the Prankster kidnaps Lois and traps her in a lead-lined vault. Superman locates the vault, but is suspicious since he can't see inside. He bursts into the vault, rescues Lois, and captures the Prankster.

Synopsis for Vigilante: "The Little Men Who Were There"Edit

The Dummy uses a device to shrink himself and his gang to tiny size and stow away on a freight train. When the shrinking effect wears off, he robs the train and escapes.

Vigilante is alerted to the Dummy’s involvement. He deciphers a clue left by the crook and is waiting when the Dummy tries to rob a plane carrying a shipment of diamonds. The Dummy escapes, but Vigilante trails him back to his hide-out.
