Sorry it has taken me so long to watch this but I screened it tonight....in B&W I have ARCTIC GIANT, BILLION DOLLAR LIMITED, SHOWDOWN and SECRET AGENT all on a big reel/spool and they all start the same way...
It's a bird, it's a plane....no its SUPERMAN!
then generic title card
then text with white background explaining that these are adapted from the comics and magazines
then credits from cartoon (I think they use the same credits for all, they all say directed by Dave Fleischer but the last two were not)
then the cartoon story starts....the only exception is ARCTIC GIANT that includes the origin story after the "it's a bird" opening and the speeding bullet, locomotive, tall building descriptions and that is why I put it on this big reel first. Also each cartoon ends with alternate lightning, pounding surf, hurricane references to Superman and the it's a bird, plane....no its Superman! opening again.
It's a great reel/spool!
