Superman at 70: Adventures of Superman TV show gallery

Let's wrap up our celebration of the Man of Steel's 70th anniversary with this look at his 1950s live-action TV series.

I loved watching reruns of this show as a kid. For me, George Reeves is Superman. He brought such a great blend of heroism, drama and whimsy to the show. He made you simultaneously believe in Superman while winkingly acknowledging the preposterousness of a grown man in a cape.
