Synopsis for "The Fantastic Faces!"

A television show, "The Superboy of Earth", assembled from footage taken of Superboy in action, is almost a hit on the other-dimensional world of Thraxx, except for one problem: the youth who watch the show are turned off by the advanced age of Superboy's parents, Jonathan and Martha Kent. To save his show, Jolax, the producer, arranges for the Kents to drink a diluted youth serum from his world, which rejuvenates the Kents physically back to their thirties. To cover for their rejuvenation, Superboy and the Kents arrange for other people their age to drink the well water at a party, with all of them becoming younger as well. To his chagrin, the producer of the Superboy program learns that his sponsors want a Superman show.
