Superman#102(1956)

Perry White is summoned to a secret meeting in which he is invited to buy Shares in the Superman Stock Company. Henry Drebbin, Edward Jorgens and Paul Quillan are also at the meeting and invited to join. Their host named Barclay explains that Superman has created the company to reward model citizens. Barclay states that whenever Superman captures a criminal who has a price on his head, the reward money will be turned over to the company. The four men are suspicious especially Perry. Perry decides that he must contact Superman to find out if he is actually connected with the company. In the meantime, Superman is spotted apprehending criminals all over Metropolis but this time he is collecting the reward money. Perry meets with Superman to find out if the company is legitimate, but Superman offers no clues. Perry is forbidden to ask Superman directly about the company according to the rules set by Mr. Barclay. At one point a reward is offered for the first man to visit the moon. Superman flies to the moon and collects a $100,000 reward which he turns over to the company. The four men are elated that they will share in the reward money, and they collect their dividends from Barclay. Three of the men take their money and head towards a fake hollow statue in which they intend to hide their share of the cash. At that point, Superman suddenly shows up with Barclay in tow and they arrest the three men for tax evasion. Mr. Barclay was actually a representative from the Treasury Department. It was Superman's idea to set up the fake Superman company. The main purpose was to trap the three crooks who were masquerading as model citizens to trick them into revealing where they were hiding their money. Superman then meets with Perry to apologize for using him in the plot. Perry is grateful that at least he has a great story.
