Today's adventure is the first four episodes of The Adventures of Superman.  Truly a character forever cemented in American culture for all time.  In the early days of the hero's adventure, though, he had a serial that came to radio as a syndicated show on New York City's W O R on February 12, 1940.

On Mutual, it was broadcast from August 31, 1942, to February 4, 1949, as a 15-minute serial, running three or, usually, five times a week.

From February 7 to June 24, 1949, it ran as a thrice-weekly half-hour show. The series shifted to ABC Saturday evenings on October 29, 1949. They then returned to afternoons, twice-a-week on June 5, 1950, continuing on ABC until March 1, 1951. In all, 2,088 original episodes of The Adventures of Superman were aired on American radio.

For today, we have the first broadcast of The Baby from Krypton, Clark Kent Mild Mannered Reporter, Kenos Landslide, and Clark Kent Captured by the Wolf.

The Baby from Krypton originally aired on February 12, 1940.
