In this episode of The Superman Super Show, Ed and Steeven dive into one of Metropolis’s darkest criminal conspiracies — a case so bizarre, so sprawling, and so brutal that it stretches from hospital wards in the city to the cliffside tribes of South America. It begins like any nightmare: victims collapsing within minutes, skin turning yellow, their minds slipping into panic before death closes in. A 100% fatality rate — and no clues. Or so it seems. When a dying man gasps a single word — Chirroba — the investigation cracks open. Suddenly Clark and Lois find themselves drawn into a deadly web involving a cult of witch doctors, starved wolves, sabotage, and gangsters hiding behind tribal power. Even the police are forced into violence as the plague drives ordinary people to attack with axes, leaving officers no choice but to “put them down.” As Steeven and Ed dig through the evidence, they uncover the shocking truth: the outbreak wasn’t natural at all. From violent outbreaks to dynamite murders, from deception to a desperate chase for the cure, this is a case file unlike anything Metropolis has ever seen. And only one man can bring the criminals to justice — even if he has to drill through the Earth, fling wolves about by the tail, or retrieve a kidnapped prince chained in a cave full of snakes to do it. This is The Yellow Plague from Superman #11: conspiracy, murder, and mystery at Golden Age speed. Tune in… if you think you can handle the truth.Superman #11 was published by DC Comics in May of 1941.The Superman Super Show is a production of Steeven Orr Else Media.

Strap in as Ed and Steeven dive headfirst into Zimba’s Gold Badge Terrorists, the blistering Golden-Age Superman yarn from Superman #11 from May of 1941. Cower in terror as the suburban town of Metrodale is blasted to rubble!A brass-knuckled demagogue named Rolf Zimba and his fanatical Gold Badge Organization demand obedience, and the Daily Planet refuses to bow.
