I was enthralled with the this DVD and learned many things I did not know, especially the history of Superman on film...at the movies as well as on television. My Uncle had the original comic books, and I was lucky enough to have read all the original Superman episodes up to around 1962 when I started high school. I remember paying 10 cents a copy and the triple sized copy which came out in June just when school was over for the summer and rushing out to get my copy so I could see what adventures Superman was involved in this time and what and how he would save the world from this time! I remember George Reeves, Phyllis Coates, Noel Neill, Perry White's "Great Caesar's Ghost", Inspector Henderson....the whole shot. This DVD brings all that out, plus more. I highly recommend it for "Dyed in the Wool" Superman fans of all ages as well as just interested movie goers....it is interesting, fast-moving, entertaining as well as educational....it's good to see and hear what others have to say about what triggered their interest in Superman and what Superman is all about.

I absolutely loved this DVD. I saw in on TV, but wanted a permanent edition for my 'supes' collection. I highly recommend it for anyone interested in the history of Superman, its origins and where he fits into our culture today. It's great.

For the diehard Superman fan, for the occasional Superman fan, and even for the once-in-a-blue-moon fan of Superman, this DVD is worth the money. There is much to learn about Superman the human, the alien, and the hero, even if this DVD at times seems like a major commercial for the "Superman Returns" movie that was out recently. In other words, any type of Superman fan can learn about the hero, what makes him him, and why he wears his "underwear on the outside" as goes the common joke. In addition, there is much too learn about Superman the comic book hero as well as Superman the television hero. In conclusion: SUPERb DVD.
