The first to create cartoons by tracing live action footage, producer Max Fleischer and his brother David Fleischer used this patented invention to revolutionize animation. More than 600 artists and technicians were employed on each cartoon to bring magic to the screen, so prepare to be amazed by some of the most dazzling special effects ever [or at least for its time].

Up in the sky. It's a bird! It's a plane! It's SUPERMAN! With those words, the legendary comic book hero, created by Jerry Siegel, flew onto the screen. Voiced by Bud Collyer, Superman appeared in 17 original cartoon classics created by Fleischer Studios from 1941 to 1943, starting "superman (aka The Mad Scientist).

Includes "The Arctic Giant," "The Mechanical Monsters," "Electric Earthquake," "Superman," "The Underground World," "The Bulleteers," "Billion Dollar Limited," "The Mummy Strikes," and "The Magnetic Telescope".
