Electric Earthquake. Believing that Manhattan rightfully belongs to his people, a scientist of native American heritage insists that the Daily Planet publish "the truth" in a story and have the island vacated. When Perry White balks at his demands and calls them ridiculous, the scientist storms out in anger. Lois Lane follows him but is discovered and held captive in his underwater laboratory. The scientist then uses his equipment to unleash an earthquake on Manhattan Island using electricity, forcing Superman to seek out the source of the havoc and rescue Lois.
