Plot : More than just a landmark in superhero animation, Max Fleischer's Superman shorts were no less than the foundation for so many shows that succeeded it. Playing in theaters in 1941-42, only a few years after the Man of Steel made his debut in Action Comics, these 17 exciting films were produced by Fleischer and made famous the phrase "This looks like a job for Superman!" At 10 minutes, each film had just enough time to run the opening credits, establish the threat, let Lois Lane make a headstrong rush into peril, and allow Clark Kent to change to his alter ego and save the day. The films show a remarkably dynamic and atmospheric storytelling style that enables them to hold up for modern viewers. At first the films followed a science fiction-fantasy theme, but not unexpectedly for that time soon focused on wartime concerns.

The Max Fleischer Superman movies, produce by Paramount, were a series of movies created and released from 1941 to 1943. The first in the series was released in theaters September 26, 1941 and the last of the seventeen was released July 30, 1943. It is considered a series, though not a television series. It was the highest budgeted animated series in film history and some consider this to still be the case, when adjusting for the value change in dollars. The cartoon artistry is of a high quality for its time and was well received by the public. A worthwhile collectable to immortalize the ever changing story of, and figure known as, Superman!
