In "The Radioactive Boy," Jimmy Olsen finds himself trapped in a desperate race against time after a criminal tricks him into believing he's been exposed to deadly radiation. With only hours to live, he retreats into a cave, reaching out to Superman for answers—only to be stunned when the hero reveals himself as Clark Kent. As Jimmy pieces together the truth, he realizes the man in the suit was never the real Superman, and the whole ordeal was a carefully staged ruse to steal his evidence.
