“As is the case with the other Superman cartoons from the Fleischer Brothers, this cartoon can often be found in multi-cartoon packs for little money. However, you can also download them for free at archive.org–legally, since they are in the public domain.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe short begins with Lois and Clark at the circus. Lois is doing a story and taking photos and Clark decides to head back to work. However, just as heu0026#39;s about to enter the Daily Planet Building, he sees a commotion and rushes back to the circus. An enormous ape (Kong-sized) escaped and in the process freed a lot of other dangerous animals. So, itu0026#39;s up to Superman to round up the beasts and save Lois.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAs usual, Superman saves Lois–though at least here she isnu0026#39;t being stupid but ends up in harmu0026#39;s way because sheu0026#39;s trying to save a child. The plot is interesting and a bit atypical for the series. Worth a look.”
