Jimmy Olsen; Superman [Clark Kent]; Perry White; Jack Frost; Pied Piper
Great guns, Jimmy!
Lightning strikes a nuclear dump and creates a giant prism, while across town, Jimmy answers questions on a quiz show about Jack Frost, Jack and the Beanstalk, and the Pied Piper. The "super-powerful mental force" of 60,000,000 viewers makes the legends come to life from the radioactive prism. Superman must chase off killing frost, overfeed a giant, and rescue entranced cops before the legends gang up with kryptonite. Jimmy conjures a duplicate Superman to the rescue, and shattering the prism banishes the legends.

An accident involving an experiment of Prof. Potter's gives Jimmy fire-breath. When he accidentally burns $1,000 meant for charity, Jimmy tries to use his abilities to raise replacement funds.

But Jimmy uses his fire-breath to signal Superman, and eventually douses his fire with mere water.
