Look! Up In the sky! It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s Superman! The classic Adventures of Superman episodes from the 1950s starring George Reeves set the tone for how many people still think of Clark Kent, Lois Lane and Jimmy Olsen. Mild-mannered reporter Clark Kent works for the Metropolis Daily Planet. But with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men, he also battles for truth and justice as Superman in these earnest, comic-inspired stories. In season two, a criminal figures out how to make Kryptonite, Superman become irradiated at an atomic facility and the Man of Steel smashes a giant asteroid, among other adventures.
