Country: USA
What it is: Superman short

An irate native American demands that Manhattan be returned to his people. When he is turned down, he unleashes an electric earthquake from his underwater laboratory. Can Superman save the day?

For some reason, I really liked this one; the plot seems a little better thought out, the animation seems particularly well done, and there are some nice surprises here and there. In some ways, it’s similar to the first one in the series, but manages to avoid being merely an imitation. This is another good entry in the series.
