nothing Superman related.

I am too old to get anything other than useful gifts that I can use everyday, (always a good thing) rather than novelty and fun gifts. I am very grateful to get anything.

You can upload images with your posts in this forum, no problem.  When you post a new article, or modify an existing one, there's a plus sign right under the article text field that says "Additional Options..." next to it.  Click on that and there's an "Attach" option.  If you click on "more attachments," you can attach multiple files.

In fact, I'm using this option to attach a nice Christmas gift from Sarge to this very post - his recolored version of the K-Metal cover.  Click on the thumb to make it bigger, the paperclip to download.  Note that only logged in users can see or download any attachments.

"Adventures of Superman" Seasons 3 and 4 on DVD.  So far, so good.

Okay Rao, lets give this a try.  I uploaded it to the Gallery too. Not sure who the inker was on this but Swan shines through anyway.

This is something I got last year - it's an enormous 3-sheet poster so it's gonna cost a fortune to frame so maybe that it'll be next year but few of you have ever seen it.  The poster from George Reeves' lone serial as "Sir Galahad'!  It's a great pulp style painting and it's George in Last Knight mode!

And something Santo Claus brought me from the South of the Border!

Nothing Superman related for myself, but I got the Superman: TAS DVDs for the kids.

I got a call from my sister to ask me if I was still alive, and a friend gave me a bottle of champagne. I can't for the life of me connect this with Superman. By the way, my girlfriend never gave me the Superman mouse and keyboard I wanted. Cough-cough.

A reason to talk to your sister more often: mine got me the Ultimate Superman DVD collection for Christmas. It has everything...it even has the 50th anniversary TV special, Superpup, and the Bugs Bunny "Super-Rabbit" spoof of the Fleischer cartoons.

Not to mention all the Fleischer cartoons themselves.  :) 

They should've put the Pinky and the Brain "Two Mice and a Baby" episode on there as well, but that's a minor quibble.  :)

Say, did you get the "corrected" Superman III with the extra features actually on the disk?  I'm still waiting for the WB to send me my shipper to return the defectively-burned disk(s).

No, I don't guess I did...

How do you get it?

I haven't yet.  I've called the phone #, given them my info, and they've given me a ticket # indicating they'd send me a shipper to return the disks:

But, you want to check to see if you have defective disks first.  Don't just trust the labelling on the DVD.  If you put Superman III in the DVD and see no special features menu with deleted scenes and such, you don't have the right one.  Same goes for Superman I without the 2.0 sound.  Some boxed sets were fixed, but most of the ones ordered through the big e-tailers (e.g. Amazon, Deep Discount DVD) weren't, AFAICT.
