The White Plague
Adventures of Superman Radio Serial - June 1941Purple prose does more than set the mood in this story arc, it also helps fill valuable minutes of run-time in a first chapter which is a little sly on action. Clark and Jimmy are on their way to a lumber camp in the far North for a well-deserved vacation when Perry White calls them back to Metropolis. Nonetheless, the duo get wrapped up in the mystery of The White Plague – a curse which besieges the camp, claims lives and shakes the nerves of otherwise redoubtable lumberjacks.
Clark does more heavy lifting in this episode than Superman does, in the long run, much to Jimmy’s delight - the cub reporter’s hero worship is strong enough to be split between Clark and his super-alter-ego.
