Superman

Fleischer SupermanProduced between September 26, 1941 and July 30, 1943, these seventeen Superman cartoons are considered some of the finest created during 'The Golden Age Of Animation'.

The first eight cartoons were produced by Fleischer Studios, but when this was dissolved the remaining nine were produced by Famous Studios.

This series of cartoons helped create the Superman we know today, including his ability to fly. The series also introduced the immortal words, "Faster than a speeding bullet! More powerful than a locomotive! Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound!"
