Transcript

Presenting the transcription feature, Superman. Come! It's a bird, it's a plane, it's Superman! Yes, it's Superman. Strange visitor from the planet Krypton, who came to earth with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men.

Superman, who can leap tall buildings of a single bow, Brace a speeding bullet to its targets, then steal in its bare hands. And who disguised as Clark Kent, Mild-mannered reporter for a great metropolitan newspaper, fights a never-ending battle for truth and justice.

But before we join Superman, listen. And now to our story, things haven't been going so well with our friends, searching for nine American engineers lost in the uncharted Andes mountains, Clark Kent, Lois Lane, editor Perry White, Jimmy Olsen, and their airplane pilot have fallen into the hands of a vanished race of Inca Indians.

At the moment, the situation is tense. Lois, Jimmy and Bronson have been sentenced to death unless they reveal the whereabouts of Kent and editor White. But they cannot tell because the two men escaped from the dungeon under the Inca Palace while Lois, Jimmy and the pilot were sleeping.

In the meantime, Kent and White, accompanied by John Craig, one of the missing engineers, have returned to the dungeon to find it empty. Listen, strike them out, Kent. They must be here. Tell you they're not. The dungeon's empty.

I have a match. I've been saving them. They already know, as though they were pure gold. Yeah, strike one. Are you right, Kent? They're gone, but where? Did they have discovered that loose stone on the wall?

Not a chance. Now, look at this. What is it, Mr. Craig? A dungeon door. It's wide open. Now, wait. I'll add another match. So it is. And what does that mean? Simply that Lois, Jimmy, and Bronson were taken out of here.
