What if? A Superman "camp"TV show in 1966.

[carmelo]

What if together Batman also Superman had his TV show in 1966? Imagined a new show in color,with more advanced special effects than 50s TV series in pure Batman 60s camp style! For the role of Superman Bob Holiday (that in 66 played the role to Brodway).

[Superman of America]

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's Soooooooooooooooooooooperman!!!
I never seen the televised Superman stage play or even the actual play (prolly because I wasn't born yet) but this is a great find!

somewhere on an LP records, I have what I think is songs from the Superman Musical

here's a sample of lyrics that I recall;

From another planet
Muscles made of granite
x-ray eyes and super brainnnnn

Is it a bird ?
NO!
Is it a plane ?
NO!
What is it?

It's Soooooooooooooooooo-per man !

My mistake...while I do have an LP with superman songs on it, the song I quoted was from a company called Golden Records and it had this Superman song and also the Batman theme

[Great Rao]

From another planet
Muscles made of granite
x-ray eyes and super brainnnnn

Is it a bird ?
NO!
Is it a plane ?
NO!
What is it?

It's Soooooooooooooooooo-per man !

I think that same song was used for the opening and closing credits on the "Origins of a Superhero" CD.

I'd really love to see the Superman musical one day; maybe we should form an amateur theatrical group and put it on? In the meantime, I've tried to contact Jules Feiffer concerning his one-act Superman play, but no joy.
