Comments:
Lex Luthor, Prankster, and Toyman each appear in flashbacks. These flashbacks contain no reference to their approximate time periods, so it is assumed that they take place just prior to this story.

This is the first Earth-1 appearance of both Toyman and the Prankster.

Synopsis:
Crooks kidnap Jimmy and force him to answer questions about Superman. Then they transmit the questions to their partner, who is a contestant on a quiz show. The contestant correctly answers the questions, but Jimmy gives extra details which only he and Superman know. Superman is tipped off to Jimmy’s danger and rescues his friend, stopping the gang from winning the grand prize.
