In July 2008, The Dark Knight (Christopher Nolan, USA, 2008) set a new box-office record for the highest-grossing opening weekend of all time in the US.

This American-inspired Superman adventure radio series for children was locally made and starred Brisbane native Leonard Teale as Superman and Margaret Christensen as Lois Lane.

Superman may be the most iconic of all American superheroes, but back in 1949, he was a true blue Aussie fighting the forces of evil on 2GB radio.
