Synopsis:
After robbing his son of super powers using Gold Kryptonite, Superman returns home in anguish over his decision. Superman, Jr. has difficulty adapting to his loss of powers at first. Eventually, he makes amends by saving his father's life when criminals ambush him with Kryptonite. Since Superman, Jr. is not affected by Kryptonite any more, he is able to rescue his father.

Superman then takes his son to the city of Kandor. Scientists there, provide Superman with special bracelets which transfer his powers to his son permanently. Junior then saves his father from an escaped creature from the interplanetary zoo. Superman then retires, and Junior carries on the family tradition.
