Cedric and Millicent Carson

A husband-and-wife team of “scheming actors” who impersonate [[Jonathan and Martha Kent]] as part of an elaborate and ultimately successful scheme to trick [[Superman]] into betraying the secret of his dual identity, and who then demand $5,000,000 in blackmail from the [[Man of Steel]] as their price for keeping his closely guarded secret from the underworld. Through a complex ruse of his own, however, Superman ultimately thwarts the extortion scheme by using his command of “super-hypnotic forces” to erase all knowledge of his secret identity from the villainous actors’ minds (Act No. 247, Dec 1958: “Superman’s Lost Parents!”).
