“Superman! Rocketed to Earth as an infant when the distant planet Krypton exploded. And who disguised as Clark Kent, mild-mannered reporter for the Daily Planet fights a neverending battle for truth, justice and freedom with super-powers far beyond those of ordinary mortals!”

That’s how announcer Jackson Beck opened this classic show from 1966. The opening scene showing Superman smashing meteorites to the show’s very ’60s jazz main title theme still looks cool.

Following the ’40s Fleischer Superman (made for theaters) and the ’50s Adventures of Superman (first done as a movie then a TV series), Filmation’s New Adventures of Superman (1966) was the first Superman done specifically for television. Paid a sum of $36,000 per completed half-hour by CBS (who struck a deal with DC Comics to create the show), Superman also was the then-little studio’s first major TV deal.

The legacy of the more revered Fleischer Superman shorts was not lost on Filmation. “The Fleischers did, as far as I’m concerned, the definitive one. So much so that we actually managed to hire some of them to work for us,” producer Lou Scheimer said.

In additon to comics faithful character designs, and effective yet limited [compared to today] animation, The New Adventures of Superman also featured the voices of Fleischer Superman’s Bud Collyer and Joan Alexander (alternating with Julie Bennett) as the animated Superman/Clark Kent and Lois Lane.

As a result, the series was a breakout hit. So much so Filmation was given a bonus and a 2nd season where the show expanded to “The Superman Aquaman Hour of Adventure” adding heroes Green Lantern, Hawkman, Flash, the Atom, Teen Titans, and Justice League to the lineup.

Due to the ongoing Siegel/DC/Time Warner battle for Superboy copyrights, the Superboy episodes originally sandwiched between the Superman episodes are not included in this set. Despite this, I still recommend the set solely on the strength of the thirty-six 6 min. Superman eps that are included.

The New Adventures of Superman is a 2-disc set featuring all 36 Superman episodes from the show’s first season; Full Frame (1.33:1) video; Dolby Surround Stereo English audio; Closed caption; plus the following Special Feature: “Superman in ‘66″ - Featurette explores how the ’60s era influenced the character of Superman and led to his Filmation debut on this groundbreaking show.

Highly Recommended!

Although I grew up watching (reruns of) the George Reeves t.v. series, I was always disappointed that they never included any comic-book villains. Filmation’s terrific animated show, despite its flaws, definitely delivered on the comic-book action. AND those wonderful super-villains!

Each episode moves at a brisk pace (they’re only about 6 minutes apiece), and contains enough colorful action to satifsy die-hard comic book fans. Plots involving alien invaders, giant chimps, etc. may seem “cheesy” to more jaded viewers of today, but the series was very much in-line with what was happening in the Superman comics of the era.

Fans of the seventies’s “Challenge of the Superfriends” will probably like these, but they may seem pretty dated to folks whose primarily knowledge of the character comes from “Smallville” (I’m not knocking that show…I like it quite a bit, actually). The only real downside to “The New Adventures of Superman” is that the animation is a bit limited. But if you’ve seen ANY Filmation series, you know about what to expect.

I hope Super-fans will support this release so we can see the rest of the Filmation DC Comics shows from the sixites.
