| Title | : | taos (0086) professor thorpe's bathysphere pt 02 |
| Air Date | : | 08.28.1940 ( August 28, 1940) |
| Plot | : | +Is there a prisoner below deck on the "Juanita?" There is, and it's the real Captain Maddox! There's a map tattooed on the radio operator's chest...shaped like an octopus! The false captain turns out to be Wolf Cleland...a notorious Caribbean criminal. 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. |
