Synopsis:

Super-villains begin to attack anyone with a connection to Clark Kent, from his parents to his accountant and his local librarian. None of them are big threats, not to Superman at least - someone is evidently sending him a message, letting him know that they know his secret. Having saved at least a dozen people from threats of this nature, Superman learns of an attack on the Daily Planet building.
