100 yrs ago, scientists laughed at Nikola Tesla's ideas & called him a Mad Scientist. His ideas were too advanced.
Today because of this great genius we have A/C electricity, the microwave oven, the radar, the radio, teleguided missiles, smart bombs, space probes, the "Tesla Electric Car" and the "death ray" i.e., the "Tactical High Energy Laser" beam weapon used by our militaries.
Nikola Tesla the greatest genius who ever lived & who gave us the 20th, 21st & 22nd centuries technology.

MrMovieguy11, it was 1941 when this cartoon was made. Only 3 years after Superman appeared for the first time in Action Comics #1 in June 1938.
At the time, the Kent's weren't created, nor Smallville. That was the original story.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, WHOA! An orphanage?! No, no, no... Superman was raised by Jonathan and Martha Kent. It was their guidance and Jonathan's death that inspired Superman to use his powers to save people. I love Superman and what he stands for, but that's a huge mistake.

I have some of these on DVD through Digiview Entertainment. Most, if not all, are irregular lengths. I wonder if that is why I've never seen them on terrestrial or cable TV? Might be hard to fit into a station's schedule unless they're "flexible". (Of course, that never stopped WKBD-50 (when Field owned them) from breaking up Popeye Meets Sinbad and Popeye Meets Ali-Baba into 3 parts.)

Wow after all the stuff he destoried and countless lives he put in danger all he gets is jail. If I could ask superman one question it would be why did he save the evil's ass at the end. You know how much more it will cost just to house him in that Jail.

this animation is amazingly smooth for 1940

back when cartoons weren't so lazy

Trovo questa cosa ridicola, fare passare il più grande genio e inventore come un'antagonista. Ha cambiato il corso dei nostri giorni, dovremmo essere grati. E' proprio vero che era avanti rispetto ai tempi e lo sarà ancora per molto.
ps. Vi assicuro che quel raggio avrebbe potuto distruggere anche un tipo come superman
I wish I can give you a comment but I do not know Italian. Please do not be offended.

Ok, we've got a mad scientist with a ton of resources at his disposal (how else could he afford the materials to build a contraption like that?) who is an enemy of Superman?
How can you NOT thing "Lex Luthor?"

@dstebbin That is a good interpretation.

The guy who voiced the mad scientist also voiced Popeye.
