The Thrilling Adventures of SupermanWelcome to episode 57 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.

Michael pauses for another Fifth Week installment this episode and rewinds the clock for a look at a story featuring Jor-L. But not the Jor-L we know! This is the story of Jor-L as seen in the pages of a Federal Men story from NEW ADVENTURE COMICS #12 from 1936 — a year and a half prior to the publication of Superman!
