Synopsis:
Scientists, Professor Zee and Professor Cardos, have discovered a way to increase the size of living organisms. Using this discovery they create a group of giant men who run rampant causing destruction. One of the giants abducts the governor and his daughter, while Superman tries to corral them.

Battling the giants in the mountains, Superman causes an avalanche which takes out a few of the giants, but he himself is dragged under. He escapes, but not before Lois Lane is captured while looking on from an aircraft.

In Professor Zee’s laboratory, the girls appear to be enlarged by the machine. Superman destroys the lab, while Zee and Cardos are trampled by their own giant creations. Lois and the governors daughter are okay as their growth was only an illusion, and the last of the giants are killed in the destruction of the lab.
