Notes

Based on a segment from "The Ovaltine Show every Sunday around tea-time" on radio stations across Australia. Each week the previous episode was presented as a cartoon strip in the Saturday edition of some newspapers. This seems to be a reprint of those serials. This is the final episode of the Sea Rover in Superman Comic.
