Presenting the transcription feature, Superman! It's a bird, it's a plane, it's Superman! Yes, it's Superman! Strange visitor from the planet Krypton, who came to work with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men.
Superman, who can leap tall buildings of a single bound, grace a feeding bullet to its targets, then seal in his 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 joined Superman, listen. And now to our story. When Jimmy Olsen found a silver arrow buried on Tumbleweed Jones Ranch, things began to happen. The arrow was engraved with a riddle in rhyme.
If he who finds it has no fear, he'll search the stream beneath the galloping steer. In the deserted ghost town of Dead Man's Gulch, Kent, Jimmy and Tumbleweed found the second arrow, which in turn led to a third.
Having learned from an old prospecta known as Hopeful Jake, that a legendary character called the Silver Arrow once roamed Lost Valley, Kent is certainly carefully hidden arrows with their mysterious rhymes must lead to something important.
But evidently others have the same idea. Some very active ghosts have suddenly come to life in Dead Man's Gulch. First, Kent and Jimmy were almost trapped in a cave by a man-made landslide. Then Tumbleweed was struck from behind and left rope and gagged in one of the ghost town's deserted shacks to cap everything
mysterious tapping led our friends to the second floor of the shack where they found a young girl bound to a chair strangely enough she was wearing as a hat ornament a duplicate of the three silver arrows as we pick up our story we find Kent about to question her regarding it now this silver arrow married you mind telling us where you got it
