Really astonishes me how well this sets up the Superman mythos for newcomers: the character dynamics of Lois and Clark, the kind of antagonists they face as a journalist duo, and - most importantly - that Superman is that guy. He is legit out there punching laser beams! The mad scientist says it perfectly himself: “HE ISN’T HUMAN!”
If there is a more concise way to introduce the Man of Steel, I’d certainly love to hear it.
