Summary: Fleischer Superman Cartoons
Comment: This DVD contains all of the vintage 1940's Paramount/Fleischer cartoons. The cartoons themselves are still entertaining and iconic appearances of the Man of Steel, although a couple of episodes are rather unkind to our Japanese friends. I enjoyed the opportunity to finally see all fourteen of these cartoons at last. If you're a fan of classic animation or of the Last Son of Krypton, you owe it to yourselves to pick up this set.

Summary: superman max & dave fleischer complete cartoon collection
Comment: excellent series from the early 40's, and the best presentation so far. a background extra on the production of the series would have been appreciated
Customer Rating:
Summary: Still classic
Comment: Actually bought this for my young nephew, who's hugely into super heroes ... even though these are from the 1940s, he still loves them, and ran around the house singing the theme and recounting what happened in the episodes. I love the classic artwork and excellent animation.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Best comic book cartoon of all time.
Comment: Let me start this note by saying I hate superman. Well perhaps hate is a strong word, but I dislike Superman a-lot, he is too strong and too unstoppable and even too good for my taste, a man with no wrongs, and in my eyes a man as such does not exist, and so it was in the eyes of the creators of the character in the 40's, making the source material for this cartoons a man, stronger than any man, faster than any man, but still not so perfect and strong that he is not able to get hurt.
As far as the animation, being from the 1940's allows it to only be hand painted cells, making it beautiful, and stories that dare to be fantastic, and yet simple, with plans that are grand in elaboration, but with very simple targets, like stealing diamonds but wi th giant robots.
This cartoon was the base for the Batman Animated Series, which has been the base for every cartoon since it came out. so take a look at the cartoon that provoked the animated revolution of the last 2 decades.
This DVD has all the shorts with dated references to when the episodes came out. A true most get!
