Presenting the Transcription feature, Superman! Up in the sky! Look! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's Superman! And now, Superman, Defender of the Week, and Champion of the Oppressed. Superman, who came to earth from the planet Krypton, resolved to dedicate his life to the cause of truth and justice.

and mingled with ordinary men as Clark Kent, meek reporter for the Daily Planet. At the moment, Superman is fighting a petty racket. Gypt Denelli has been extorting money from the small shopkeepers along Spruce Street, one of whom is Mrs. Olsen, the mother of Jimmy Olsen, a copy boy at the Daily Planet.

Clark Kent, as Superman, forced Denelli to return the money he had taken from Mrs. Olsen. Seeking revenge, Denelli ordered his henchmen spiked to way late Jimmy and his mother on the street. But Superman again intervened, angered D'Nellie telephone, and posing his Clark Kent, a range-port Jimmy, and Lois Lane, who was at the Olsen home to meet him on a street corner.

And our story opens in its the same night. Kent, unaware of D'Nellie's latest move, is talking to Perry White, city editor of the Daily Planet in White's office. And this is Olsen, so upset after D'Nellie's men attack her and Jimmy that I asked Lois Lane to spend a few hours there.

Can you imagine men attacking a woman and a boy, Mr. White. The Nellian is kind aren't men, Kent. They're rats. There's only one way to handle rats. Drive them out in the open and shoot them down.

Unfortunately, we can't do that. With bullets? No. But with words, yes. You get all the facts, Kent. Right? This story is you've never written one before. I'll give it all the front page space it'll take.
