Coup Colby

A Metropolis “crime chief” whose capture by Superman in March 1958 comes as the culmination of an elaborate ruse—devised by Superman with the aid of Perry White, in which Superman pretends to fall in love with, and even goes so far as to “marry,” Joyce White, ostensibly the lovely blond niece of Perry White but in reality a lifelike robot constructed by Superman and operated by means of remote controls hidden beneath his cape. When, as Superman had anticipated, Colby and his henchmen kidnap his “wife” and then stage a brazen jewel robbery, confident that Superman will not dare to apprehend them, Superman appears on the scene and swiftly takes them into custody (S No. 120/1: “The Day That Superman Married!”).
