Bullets bounce off him. Criminal masterminds can't outfox him. Even the destructive gizmos dreamed up by mad scientists can't blast him into atoms. Superman has the strength and courage to defeat all foes.

The 15-chapter Superman (1948) spans our hero's first arrival on Earth to his alter-ego role as reporter Clark Kent of the Daily Planet through his battle with sinister Spider Lady and her relativity reducer ray. Then in the 15-part Atom Man vs. Superman (1950), our hero faces the dawn of nuclear age. Lex Luthor seems to be behind the UFO and A-bomb that imperils Metropolis.
