Welcome to episode 49 of The Thrilling Adventures of Superman. The show’s mission is to explore the history and development of the Superman in his formative years by chronicling the Man of Steel’s Golden Age adventures in comics, radio and film.

Hide the women and children! As Michael looks at the 13th storyline from the Superman daily newspaper strip, the Man of Steel is heading back to the tenements to deal with the poor living conditions resulting from the crime-riddled slums. Last time, Superman tore down an entire part of the city to “solve” the problem. Will the passage of time assuage Superman’s rough-and-tumble approach? Find out! Also this episode Michael presents a Spotlight on radio’s second Lois Lane, Helen Choat!
