Abstract
"In 1940, Superman was one of the most popular comic-book characters with regular appearances in both Superman and Action Comics, his own comic strip, a popular radio show begun in February and a host of top-selling merchandise in every department store in the nation. Superman was Super Business. It was natural that the next entertainment arena for the strange visitor from Krypton to conquer would be the motion picture screen."
