Action Comics #37 (1941) | The Superman Super Show! (87)

Recorded live with the energy of a high-voltage radio drama, and then hammered into shape with more cuts and edits than a big budget theatrical extravaganza, Episode 87 of The Superman Super Show beats no where near the bush and speeds right into the heart-stopping mayhem of Commissioner Kent from Action Comics #37.Metropolis erupts into violent chaos.As racketeers run free, armored cars are robbed, and three civil servants fall to bullets and bombs in jaw-dropping succession, only one unlikely hero can brave the streets: mild-mannered Clark Kent, newly appointed Commissioner of Police.When a dingy alley ambush and a firebomb in City Hall fail to claim his life, Kent sheds his suit and reveals that his desk job comes with super-charged insurance as he transforms into Superman to deliver bone-crushing justice and rescue the mayor from burning ruin.In a whirlwind of assassination plots, exploding briefcases and gas-filled car ramps, Steeven and Ed unpack every twist—laughing at the absurdity of a single day that sees more explosive action than a summer blockbuster.Tune in for a pulse-pounding, hyperbolic thrill ride that proves even the darkest conspiracies in Metropolis can’t outmatch the Man of Steel’s indomitable spirit!Action Comics #37 was published by DC Comics in April of 1941.The Superman Super Show is a production of Steeven Orr Else Media.
