Cover price $0.15."Supergirl's Big Sister": Carol Benton, daughter of rocket expert Prof. Benton, hatches a ruse to get Supergirl to create diamonds for her from lumps of coal. Disguising herself as "Kranna", appearing before Supergirl in a rocket actually created by her father, a scientist, and claiming to be her long-lost older sister from Krypton, Carol fakes super-powers with scientific tricks and, finally, gets Supergirl to squeeze coal into diamonds in a super-power "competition."Supergirl leaves momentarily, baiting Carol into revealing her true nature when the Girl of Steel is out of sight. After Carol laughs raucously, Supergirl comes back, melts the diamonds with her heat-vision, and tells Carol she gave away her non-super nature from the start: if she was really a Kryptonian, she would not have needed a rocket to fly to Earth.
