An armored truck carrying a shipment of

precious jewels approaches Monument

Circle on its way to the Metropolis

Jewelry Exchange under the scrutiny of a

mysterious man. But this is no

ordinary mortal. This is a sorcerer, a

warlock, a wicked wizard in league with

the forces for evil.

Bye, Lucifer. This should shake

them up. The warlock aims his ruby-tipped

cane at the statue. Magically, the

giant statue comes to life, a slave to

the will of the warlock.

The impact sets off the truck's automatic

alarm. What happened?Look!

In the office of the Daily Planet,

Superman, disguised as meek,

mild-mannered reporter Clark Kent,

detects with his super hearing. Uh oh,

that's an armored car alarm signal.

This is a job for Superman.

Great Scott, who is that?

It's turned to marble again. How can that

be?You'll

never figure that one out.

Bye-bye, Superman! The

motorcycle. It's going off by itself. This

must be some kind of black magic. Better

get that strongbox.

Something fishy about this.

So I'll let the fish figure it out.

Superman will pay for this. He's

no match for my magic.

This tired sorcerer's ruby's got

to hold out just a little

longer. I don't

think anything's missing, Superman. Wait,

Let me see that ruby. A

sorcerer's ruby. A rare gem

which in the hands of a warlock possesses

great magic powers. Now I know

who's behind these shenanigans. Up, up,

and away!

He must be somewhere around here.

There he is. Super boob

I'll show him a trick or two as soon as I

get that fresh ruby. I've drained

almost all the magic out of this one.

Still, there's enough power

left for one more clever

stunt. Ah The toothpaste!

Uh oh. Up to his tricks again.

Those poor guards are having a sticky

time of it.

Just as I suspected. A warlock. A

male witch. Down!

Banished again. Hang it, I can't catch an

invisible man. How could he

escape from the Man of Steel?Gosh, Mr.

White, is it possible a thief has greater

powers than Superman?If he has, Jimmy.

Metropolis is in for some real trouble.

Meanwhile, at the waterfront, the warlock

revitalizes his cane with the fresh

magic power of a new sorcerer's Ruby. He

plots diabolical disasters which will

demonstrate to the people of Metropolis

his superiority over their Superman. Uh,

the ocean liner. I think it's ready

for a cruise on land.

Bone voyage.

Gosh, Mr. White, an ocean liner on Main

Street. I can't believe it. Great

Caesar's ghost. That school bus is

stalled, and the ship's flying around it.

Here comes Superman. Too late.

Down's foiled again by that

meddling Superman.

Superman. How?How could this happen?

See that man up there?He's a warlock, a

male. His black magic made it happen.

Oh, jeepers! Can't you catch him?Every

time I try, he makes himself invisible.

But I have a plan that might work, if I

can get him to raise his cane above his

head. Give up, Superman!

My magic is a thousand times more

powerful than you are! I can make that

globe spin like a top. Can you?

I hope he takes the bait. Ah

Tires play. What?

He bit Superman. Up, up

and away. Oh, no, you don't.

You won't get me.

Got it.

That's the last time he'll raise Kane

around here. Gee, how will a warlock get

along without his magic ruby?From now on,

he'll just have to squeeze toothpaste

with his fingers, like everybody else.
