Superheroes and characters who fight crime by extraordinary means
have populated the television airwaves from the beginning. This
broad-ranging reference contains a trove of information on shows
featuring such characters, from Superman in its various
incarnations to programs like The A-Team, but excluding regular
police and detective shows. Alphabetical entries on 125 network and
syndicated series broadcast from 1949 to 2001, plus 26 pilot films,
deliver information about story premises, characters, and myriad
elements that add flavor and interest to the shows, as well as cast
listings and broadcast data. A handy index of performers is
included as well as an appendix listing the crime fighting machines
that appear in the programs.
