Superman
|
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! Yes, it's Superman!
Strange visitor from another planet, who came to earth with powers and abilities far beyond those
of mortal men. Superman! Who can change the the course of mighty rivers, bend steel with bare
hands, and who -- disguised as Clark Kent, mild-mannered reporter for a great metropolitan
newspaper -- fights a never ending battle for truth, justice and the American way!
