It’s amazing that Superman’s first comic was 1938, and it was already a show by 1948

The set is so cheap looking, that’s what makes it great at that time!

I found the burings lava scene compelling. Sure it doesn’t have the current effects like Man of Steel’s Krypton destruction, but, burning lava is scary even in black and white!

It’s to bad that they have to use cartoon as a special effect.
