Lois Lane

Bud Collier and Jackie Kelk are heard in this 1942 Mutual Broadcasting System chapter of The Adventures of Superman.

Lois Lane and Sir Mycroft Bittersweet have vanished, and Superman's search leads him to a fortune teller with an apparent connection to a man in a red fez.

First broadcast October 6th, 1942, Mystery in Arabia Part 6 carries the ten-part serial into its sixth 15-minute installment during the program's return to Mutual's weekday schedule.

The Mutual revival was directed by George Lowther.

So remember, every time you've got a dime, buy a war-saving stamp.

And now, the adventures of Superman.

Clark Kent, Lois Lane, and Jimmy Olsen are now in Arabia, having strange and bewildering adventures.

In our last episode, we heard how the Countess for Jessica, who looks almost exactly like Lois Lane, fell into the hands of a band headed by a mysterious man in a red fez.

Mm-hmm.

Lois Lane.

Wow.

Which believe it or not, she had her own, she had her owns comic series back in the '80s.

And obviously, he needs revenge.

So he sends in his trusted bodyguard, Slade Wilson, to kidnap Lois Lane.

Shenanigans ensue.

So I was getting some Phineas and Ferb, Dr. Doofenshmirtz sort of vibes from this.

Yeah.

He's Lois Lane's dad in Smallville.

General Sam Lane.

Yes, he is.

Let's jump right into the back of the box quote.

Lois Lane and Jimmy Olsen have disappeared.

They've been kidnapped by the malevolent powers of Lex Luthor and Brainiac, who have brought them to a virtual reality version of Metropolis.

Superman must come to their rescue.

Superman going rogue would be so crazy.

Like, um, was it when, when Superman went rogue when Lois Lane got killed by the, by the Joker?

Actually, in some universes, that happened.

What?

Okay, cool, yeah.

She was that Lois Lane in Superman.

Do you know what?

Oh, no, we've got-

TV version of Superman, the musical.

In 1975, she played Lois Lane in the TV version of the musical, of Superman, the musical, from the 1960s.

So it's a 70s version of a 60s musical.

And you're shaking your head, and you have every right

That sounds so bad.

It is god awful, because it was written at a time,

I think, when, like, batman was popular so it's like everything was was kitschy and terrible so it doesn't take the character seriously like the films did yes but she was a good lois lane though at the time like in the 70s i mean she she does give a lois lane vibe yeah yeah it was like 10 years before this so imagine her 10 years younger and singing she was yeah

Well, she was hot.
