Animated World of DC Comics: Superboy in The Beast That Went Berserk (1966)

A noble scientist (Ted Knight, who also narrated) develops a serum that enables an elephant to grow in size, but a little too large for its own good. Superboy (Bob Hastings) has to stop "The Beast That Went Berserk". "Berserk" is misspelled on the title card.

Edit, 8/29/19: The video was deleted due to copyright concerns at Dailymotion.


The predictable trope about the rogue assistant was kept off camera to save time, it seems, but would come into play in later variations on the same theme.

Rating: B+.

Wow, how did they find a stereo soundtrack for this episode?

Technological upgrades, I guess.
