Transcript for Superman

Up in the sky look, it's a bird, it's a plane, it's superman

In the endless reaches of the universe there once existed a planet known as Krypton

a planet than burned like a green star in the distant heavens

There civilization was far advanced, and it brought forth a race of supermen

Whose mental and physical powers were developed to the absolute peak of human perfection

but, there came a day when giant quakes threatened to destroy Krypton forever

one of the planet's leading scientists, sensing the approach of doom placed his infant son

in a small rocketship, and sent it hurtling in the direction of the Earth just as Krypton exploded

The rocket ship sped through star studded space landing safely on Earth

with its precious burden Krypton's sole survivor

A passing motorist found the uninjured child and took it to an orphanage

As the years went by and the child grew to maturity he found himself possessed of amazing physical powers

faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive able to leap tall buildings at a single bound

the infant of Krypton is now the man of steel - Superman who will best be in a position to use his amazing powers

in the never ending battle for truth and justice

Superman has assumed the disguise of Clark Kent, mild-mannered reporter for a great metropolitan newspaper

Kent, I want to see you, we just received another threatening note

Ok Mr White

Lois, another note from the mad scientist

Coming in chief

Listen to this warning, he plans to strike tonight

Beware you fools, my electrothanasia-ray strikes tonight at 12

Total destruction will come to those who laughed at me and failed to heed my warnings

Beware I strike at midnight

This nut may prove dangerous. Kent, you help Lois follow up her lead. She may have an angle on this thing

Thanks chief

But Lois

The hour has come

So you want the story, I'll give you the greatest story of destruction the world has even known

How is that for a story Miss Lane

Flash - True to his threat, the mad scientist, whose warnings have held the city in a grip of terror

went on his rampage of destruction on the stroke of midnight

The deadly impact of his mysterious rage smashed the famous tower bridge hurling cars and pedestrians

into the river below. The police have warned everyone to remain in their homes

This looks like a job for Superman

It's superman

I don't believe it, he isn't human

Superman captures Mad Scientist

Yes, chief, thanks to Superman
