Original subtitles

Faster than a speeding bullet.

More powerful than a locomotive.

Able to leap tall buildings at a single

bound.

Look! Up in the sky.

It's a bird. It's a plane.

It's Superman! It's Superman,

man of cool

Superman, marketed to Earth as an infant

from the distant planet Krypton exploded,

and Ho disguised as Clark Kent, wild

planet reporter for the Daily Planet,

fights a never-ending battle for truth,

justice, and freedom, with superpowers

far beyond those of ordinary boyhoods.

It's Superman, Superman, Superman,

Superman.

Over the normal hustle and bustle of

Metropolis, an ominous hum makes its

presence felt.

Giant bees, each the size of an

army tank, which swoop down from out of

the blue. Police bullets have no effect

on the winged juggernauts.

Only one force remains which can rescue

the beleaguered city, the Man of

Steel.

I'm going to take these freaks to a

laboratory where scientists can... Great

Scott! This bee is growing

smaller. So are these other two.

They've all returned to normal size. What

do you mean of it, Superman?I don't know,

but I've got a feeling we haven't seen

the last of these giant bees. Up,

up, and away!

Extra, extra! Thugs loot city as police

battle giant bees! Extra, extra!

You must stop this madness. I

created the growth ray for bees to help

mankind, not destroy it.

Ain't that a shame, Professor. You

want to make lots of honey, and we want

to make lots of money.

Boss! Someone coming!

Okay. Get rid of him, Professor.

And no funny stuff.

Professor Psalms, we're reporters from

the Daily Planet. Reporters?

Oh, dear. Miss Lane and I would like to

ask you some questions about the giant

bees that struck Metropolis.

I I'm sorry, I

can't help you. Go away,

please. Hmm

This whole layout looks pretty

suspicious.

You shouldn't have said that, lady. Who--

Who are you?Move. All of you.

Now look here. Come on, move.

You have no right to-- Do as they say,

Lois. They're in the driver's seat now.

Come on. You too, Professor.

What is all this?

Giant honeycombs, Miss Lane.

Built by giant bees.

But why, Professor?Why did you create

those giant bees?All

part of a dream, Mr. Kent.

My dream, to increase the

world's production of honey. Now

those hoodlums will destroy everything.

Okay, Joe, time to move. The boys in

Metropolis are waiting. This time, what a

really big job!

It sounds as if they have unleashed a

horse farm! Oh, no!

We must find a way out of here and stop

them. Right, let's each take a different

tunnel.

No! No Come back! There's no

way through this maze!

I see what you mean, Professor. I've been

running in circles. Where's Mr. Kent?

Oh, dear. He must be wandering around.

Lost, maybe.

Clark!

This is a job for Superman.

Up, up, and away!

Like a rocket, the man of steel plows

into the thick swarm of insects. Hurling

giant bees right and left, he fights his

way onward. Warding off all attackers, he

pours toward the center of the angrymass.

I won't hurt you, queen bee. I need your

help. True to their species, the entire

swarm of bees clusters around its queen.

Relax, my friend. Just as soon as you

return to normal size, you'll be able to

escape through the cracks to freedom. Up,

up, and away!

Yay! Where'd you come from?A

little bee sent me.

Yeah, that'll hold you until the police

get here.

Superman. Oh, thank

heaven. You're safe now, and so is

Metropolis. Send for the police.

Head run, Superman.

Wait, what about Clark?He's still lost in

there. Ohh

I guess we'll just have to find him

ourselves. Lois.

Clark. What What happened?

You'll never believe it. While we were

trapped in there, Superman came from out

of nowhere and rescued.
