Article description: (description)
This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | From the studio that brought you such classics as Betty Boop and Popeye the Sailor, Fleischer Studios played a major role in cementing the Man of Steel as a pop culture icon by means of these lavishly animated high-budget short subjects which served to bring Superman to the big screen, from The Golden Age of Animation. These cartoons were a huge deal back in the '40s -- the first short, "The Mad Scientist", nearly won the 1942 Academy Award (losing to a Disney Pluto short, "Lend A Paw") and has placed No. 33 on The 50 Greatest Cartoons list. These cartoons were among the first cartoons that were made for genuine action and drama, rather than crude comedy, which was part of what contributed to their success, and they became so popular, they even had trailers made for them -- that's right, trailers for short cartoons. Try to wrap your head around that. |
