Synopsis:
Metropolis is gripped by a terrible plague. Superman learns from Pedro Carlos that the plague originated with the Chirroba tribe. Clark, Lois, and two explorers seek the tribe in search of a cure.

The tribe has been taken over by Quismado, the high priest, and a gangster. They released the plague in hopes of extorting money. Superman stops their plans and rescues the son of the slain leader, Wacouches. Clark and Lois then return to America with the cure.
