Superman Sunday takes us back to that time a biodegradable golf club investor was imbued with the powers of Superman. Lightning has had an interesting role in Superman’s history and, like Kryptonite and magic, has plagued him in different ways from time to time. Here, a portion of Superman‘s (Dean Cain) power was transferred to the suicidal William Wallace Webster Waldecker (Leslie Jordan) when the pair are struck by lightning in a Metropolis cemetery where Lois (Teri Hatcher) and Clark were looking for clues as to what happened to the body of Lex Luthor.

Whether putting the populace to sleep or threatening to bring down a building, Metropolis soon finds itself at the mercy of a new threat. The episode is notable for Lois going undercover as a rock ‘n roll groupie and the show introducing a technology that could even bring the Man of Steel to his knees.
