Plot | : | +This broadcast is considered the first show of the series heard on the If this and the following shows are from Mutual, the commercials have been deleted (the first sponsor was Hecker's H-O Oats). If these programs were syndicated (up to the program of September 7, 1942), the commercials were added locally. They might have been both Mutual net and syndicated. Individual titles have been given to each episode. While these titles are claimed to have been obtained from the program scripts themselves, the source is unreliable and these titles have been omitted from these listings. Superman helps the U.S. Navy battle, "The Shark." Clark Kent is working for "Paris White" of "The Daily Flash!" Clark is ordered to Newport News, Virginia to find, "The Shark." Superman listens to "The Shark" from outside his submarine (a "Y-Boat"). Faster than a speeding bullet! More powerful than a locomotive! Able to leap tall buildings at a single bound! Look! Up in the sky! It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s SUPERMAN! Based on the comic created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster in 1938. Superman, disguised on earth as Clark Kent, “leads a never-ending battle for truth, justice, and the American way”. In the storyline the true identity of Superman was closely guarded by the producers. If any of the peripheral characters discovered that Clark Kent was Superman they always ended up being killed of either by accident or by disaster. This situation was also mirrored in the real world. It wasn’t until 1946, six years into the run, that listeners discovered that Clayton Bud Collyer played the part of Superman. |
