The Superman Radio Scripts Volume I Superman vs. The Atom Man
Compiled and edited by DC Comics. Billboard Books, 2001. For over a decade, adults and children alike were thrilled by the heroic exploits of the Man of Steel on radio. The Adventures of Superman introduced many of the fantastic characters and imaginative concepts that later became fixtures in DC's comic book stories, including Superman's first encounter with deadly kryptonite, and his adventures with fellow DC characters Batman and Robin. Volume 1 contains one of the series' most powerful and dramatic serials, "Superman vs. the Atom Man." First aired during the fall of 1945, at the dawn of America's fascination with atomic energy and at the end of World War II, the episodes pit Superman against a radioactive Nazi agent with kryptonite flowing through his veins. Also included are 16 sidebars that reveal inside stories about the characters, actors, and even the impact the radio shows had on listeners, and feature classic illustrations by such artists as Superman co-created Joe Shuster. 205 pages.
