The Thrilling Adventures of SupermanWelcome to episode 62 of The Thrilling Adventures of Superman. The show’s mission is to explore the history and development of the Superman in his formative years by chronicling the Man of Steel’s Golden Age adventures in comics, radio and film.

Finally! It’s back to the Sunday newspaper strip as Michael looks at the fourth storyline. Unfortunately, it’s a sub-par story overall. But, the good news is, there’s plenty of the action, intrigue and insanity we’ve come to love in Superman’s Golden Age adventures, as Clark Kent and Lois Lane (and Superman!) set out to aid a relief fund for a war-stricken foreign nation.

QUOTABLE:
See? I crush the wood to sawdust! — Tell me who your leader is, or I’ll see what I can do with your necks!
–Superman

Mine sitting


Carving a mountain -- Looney Tunes style


A last-minute save


Why, yes...

The Thrilling Adventures of Superman

Welcome to episode 60 of The Thrilling Adventures of Superman. The show’s mission is to explore the history and development of the Superman in his formative years by chronicling the Man of Steel’s Golden Age adventures in comics, radio and film.

Superman makes a two-fold return to his social justice roots to deal with a pair of phony doctor — and prevent his victims from enacting their own brand of justice in this classic Golden Age tale.

QUOTABLE:
What were bars created for — except for Superman to bend!
–Superman

The cover to ACTION COMICS #26 by Joe Shuster and Wayne Boring
