Lost -- A Free Education: (Leave It To Binky PSA)The Superman Who Avoided Danger: (Superman) After an insurance salesman named Alber J. Splink puts himself in danger for a second time trying to sell Superman life insurance, Superman has himself shot with artillery shells, sits inside a blast furnace, then atop a polar summit, then drinks a cocktail of deadly microbes to demonstrate he doesn't need insurance. Splink accepts this and walks away depressed. That afternoon he is in a restaurant, talking to his fiance about what it would have meant to get the commission on incurring Superman, and is overheard by a millionaire in the next booth who then offers to pay for a life insurance policy for Superman that would pay out to a fund to help the pore people of Metropolis. Superman agrees and signs but later, when he tries to save a cat from a tree he is told that clause 11 of the policy states that he agrees not to take any unnecessary risks such as passing through fire, smashing through obstacles, traveling at more than 50 miles per hour or flying at an altitude higher than 20 feet. this is, of course, absurd and Superman decides he will cancel the policy but Plink has already gotten married and bought a house and furniture on credit based n the commission from the policy, if it's canceled he will be ruined so Superman decides to abide by it for a time until he can figure out a solution. a couple f criminals find out about the clause and try using it to get away with crimes but Superman figures out ways to stop them without breaking the rules. he then acts like he is sick and a Doctor playing along with him tells Plink's boss Superman is dying because he is using so much energy holding himself back so the guy strikes out clause 11 from the plan.Privet Pete: (Humor strip by Henry Boltinoff)The Man Who Hated Green Arrow: (Green Arrow) After saving a rich man from being attacked in his bedroom the man turns around and insists Green Arrow and Speedy are trespassing and he doesn't want them on his property.The Underworld Blacksmith: (Tom Sparks, Boy Inventor)The Boom at Eagle Pass: (Wyoming Kid) Secret of Istanbul: (Danger Trail)Varsity Vic: (Humor strip by Henry Boltinoff)White Man's Gift: To The Shores Of Tripoli: (text story)The Carbon Copy Batman: (Batman, Robin) Batman agrees to help a man who thinks he is Batman by making him as much like the real Batman as possible but the professional Jocky they hire to play Robin is actually working for a crime group.Quick Quiz: (4 panels of questions and answers) — Description from Comic Vine community (comicvine.gamespot.com).
