Synopsis for "The Curse of the Superboy Mummy!"
In 3,000 B.C., royal Egyptian magician Ahton appeals to the goddess Isis to find a way to turn his weak son Seth into a “strong, vigorous youth”. He sees a vision of the future Superboy and is given the formula for a herbal concoction that will give Seth the powers of the Boy of Steel. Seth dons a Superboy costume made by his father, gets super-powers from the serum, and becomes a hero of his time. But when Neferti, a girl who had formerly spurned Seth, consults a rival conjurer for a love charm, the wizard gives her a jade scarab ring that kills him. Neferti dies trying to save Seth, and both are entombed together. Ahton barely has time to carve a warning inscription to Superboy of the future on the wall of the tomb before it is sealed. In Superboy’s era, Clark Kent and Lana Lang find the mummies of Seth and Neferti on an Egyptian dig of Professor Lang’s. Clark and Lana translate separately the warning of Ahton, which predicts that Superboy will be killed by Lana, “unless you first destroy her...”. Lana takes the scarab ring for a souvenir, which causes Superboy physical pain. She mistakenly assumes, once she completes the translation, that Superboy is attempting to murder her. But the Boy of Steel simply has her destroy the scarab ring, whose Kryptonite-like radiations endanger him. After she does so, Superboy explains that Ahton was interrupted before he could finish the last word of his inscription: “unless you first destroy her scarab”.
