(9/18/1942) Superman versus Japanese spies hijacking the world's largest bombing plane during World War II. Note: The title is a combination of the French word saboteur and the shortened form for one of the Axis Powers in World War II, the Japanese. With regards to the title, we must remember that this was filmed during the first year of the United States' involvement in the war and the characterization of the enemy was very stereotypical. Director: Seymour Kneitel.
