Superman, "The Mummy Strikes" (1943)

 


Our next Halloween treat for you this month is a short cartoon from the Famous Studios series of Superman cartoons.

In this one, Clark Kent and Lois Lane investigate to learn who murdered a famed Egyptologist. In typical Clark and Lois fashion, they run afoul of undead mummies! Those crazy kids!

Enjoy!

    Sorry, Philly, but this short was produced by Famous Studios, not the Fleischers. Max and Dave were ousted by Paramount the previous year.

    I thought Famous and the Fleischers were one and the same. Oops!

    Well, to be fair, Famous basically IS the same studio--Just not with those two at the helm (Also transplanted back to NYC from Miami).
