Quotes:
[first lines]Voices: Up in the sky, look! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's Superman!
Narrator: Faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive, able to soar higher than any plane, this amazing stranger from the planet Krypton, The Man of Steel: Superman! Possessing remarkable physical strength, Superman fights a never-ending battle for truth and justice, disguised as a mild-mannered newspaper reporter, Clark Kent.

A SUPERMAN Cartoon.
The Circus has come to town and girl reporter Lois Lane has been assigned to cover it. It's all pretty routine, until Gigantic, the huge & terrifying ape, escapes and spreads TERROR ON THE MIDWAY. With the enraged simian menacing Lois, it looks like a job for Superman...
This was another in the series of excellent cartoons Max Fleischer produced for Paramount Studio. They feature great animation and taut, fast-moving plots. Meant to be shown in movie theaters, they are miles ahead of their Saturday Morning counterparts. Bud Collyer is the voice of Superman; Joan Alexander does the honors for Lois Lane. And isn't that the voice of Jack ‘Popeye' Mercer as the first sideshow barker?
