"The Prehistoric Pterodactyls"

In the vast, frozen Arctic, a violent earthquake causes an ice shelf to break apart, and from it, a couple of pterodactyls are freed from their eternal imprisonment. The prehistoric creatures then take flight and head for the southwest.

Reporters Clark Kent and Lois Lane are on special assignment in San Francisco, when they hear on the radio that a giant flying monster has been sighted by an aircraft carrier in Hawaii. While Lois stays to find out more information from the Navy, Clark changes into Superman and crosses the Pacific towards the Hawaiian islands.

The Man of Steel is successful in defending the aircraft carrier against the pterodactyl. What he doesn't know is that the Coast Guard is fighting a second flying creature in San Francisco, and Lois is caught right in the middle. Will Superman be able to return to California in time to save Lois from certain death?
