Starring: George Reeves, Noel Neill, Jack Larson, John Hamilton Director: George Blair, Harry Gerstad
Crime
doesn't pay. Not when Superman is around. Yet that won't stop Metropolis miscreants
feverishly bent on malevolent misdeeds.
A deadly Kryptonite ray gun, knights in armor, anti-memory
vapor, a
gizmo that zaps bad guys across phone lines, even a mind-reading burro
who taps
out responses (and who has suspicions about Clark Kent!) - all are
called into
futile service to thwart the Man Of Steel.
"You
can set your watch on it,"
Jimmy Olsen says about Superman always showing up in the nick of time. The good news for series fans is that he
shows up again and again in these 26 flights of fantasy that complete
the
six-season Adventures of Superman.
George Reeves returns as the caped hero:
stalwart, caring and with a sense of humor...a pairing of star
and role
that continues to win fans the world over.
