Superman: The Cliffhanger
This is one of those "serials" from days gone by (1948). The most attractive element oif serials is the ending of each chapter (except the last) wherein the hero or friend of the hero is left in a dangerous situation only to be resolved "at this theater next week". (Yes, you had to wait a week to find out the person's fate.) This serial is in good condition and well packaged for ease of viewing. Some of the action is animated (not very well) but I found it tolerable. On the whole, it's a fairly accurate portrayal of the Superman story. I enjoyed seeing it again.This is one of those "serials" from days gone by (1948).

Superman The Theatrical Serials Collection
Before George Reeves played the famous superhero, there was Kirk Alyn who wore the costume for the first on-screen version of Superman. Superman was a movie serial that came out in 1948. A movie serial was a fifteen-minute film that ended with a cliffhanger. This was done so that the audience would come back to see the next installment, or next episode, the following week These movie serials were done before television. Television came out in 1949; the first Superman serial appeared in theaters in 1948. The special effects were very primitive by today’s standard, but they were very effective for that time. To have Superman fly, the audience saw Kirk Alyn jump, and then turn into a cartoon. When Superman landed, he was a cartoon, and then changed back to Kirk Alyn. This may sound bad, but ...

To have Superman fly, the audience saw Kirk Alyn jump, and then turn into a cartoon. When Superman landed, he was a cartoon, and then changed back to Kirk Alyn. This may sound bad, but it was not. The animations for these serials were done very well. Not only were the flying scenes animated, but also bullets, explosions, and even when Superman busted through walls, it was all animated. Noel Neill played Lois Lane for the first time in 1948, and right from the start, she set the standard for the character. Tommy Bond, who played Butch in The Little Rascals, played Jimmy Olsen. Pierre Watkin played Perry White. He did not play him as rough as John Hamilton, but he was convincing as a newspaper editor. Carol Forman played the villainess who was building a reducer ray to create evil in Metropolis. Superman was fifteen chapters long, and each one was fifteen minutes long. It was not a big production, but it was a big success. Today’s children may find it boring, or even stupid, but for fans of Superman, this is a treasure. After the success of Superman, Columbia filmed a second serial in 1950: Atom Man vs. Superman. Just like the first, Kirk Alyn, Noel Neill, Tommy Bond, and Pierre Watkin came back to reprise their rolls. Lyle Talbot played the part of Luthor. (The character was not known by Lex Luthor yet) Television had just come out, but not everyone had a set. Theaters were still showing serials, and Atom Man vs. Superman was one of the last serials to be filmed. This one has a lot more action than the first. Superman has to battle Luthor, who is the Atom Man, and save Metropolis from his demands. This installment of Superman was ahead of its time. Luthor is a scientist, and he developed an ark that can take a person’s atoms, and place them somewhere else. Sounds like the transporter beam used in Star Trek, but this was done sixteen years before Star Trek. Another way this serial was ahead of its time was that they used the new media, television, to have Lois interviewing people on the streets. Atom Man vs. Superman did not change their special effects. Kirk Ayln still turned into a cartoon to fly, the bullets that bounced off his chest, and busting through walls were still animated. In the chapter called:"Into the Empty Doom”, the special effects were done very well, especially when Superman was a phantom. This was done before we knew about the Phantom Zone, another example on how this was ahead of its time. If you have the time, grab some popcorn, your friends, and family, relax on the couch, and enjoy these two early installments of Superman.

Superman: The Theatrical Series
Winning this set was a no brainer for me! I sat in local theaters when both serials were released watching every chapter as though it was real. As a young kid, Kirk Alyn was Superman! Even though the plot lines do not hold up with age these two serials are still great fun. Add Noel Neill to the mix and you have a winning pair. By the way, Noel Neill has played opposite every actor that has portrayed Superman since 1948! The digital remastering is excellent, but the extra features are too short. I would have liked to know why Tommy Bond and Noel Neill were passed over for the television Series' first season. That aside, Kirk Alyn at the Kent farm reading a newspaper in a suit and tie before he even leaves for Metropolis is a hoot! Highly recommended for any hardcore fan or curious newcomer!Winning this set was a no brainer for me!

SUPERMAN: THE THEATRICAL SERIALS COLLECTION
I bought this dvd set not knowing what to expect in the quilty of it. These dvd's are so clear & so fun to watch. I have watched every one of them & will do so again & again. They used a cartoon when superman took off flying, but for 1948 that was really good. They have came a long way since then with the superman series, but this series in black & white of 1948 is supurb. I love this dvd set and would recomended it highly to anyone who is into superman & balck & white pictures. The characters playing in the superman series of superman, Perry White, Louis Lane, and Jimmy Olsen are very good. A must see dvd set.

Superhero serial flies high!
Warners took great pride in this release! First class packaging, acceptable video quality ( itcould still use a 1080p upgrade)! Fast paced and engaging, both serials are fun and easy to take on a relaxing day! Plus, MR KIRK ALYN! The VERY FIRST ACTOR TO PLAY SUPERMAN ON FILM! A must for any film buff! Highly recommended! 🙋‍♂️👍👏
