Superman basiert auf der bekannten gleichnamigen Comicfigur von DC Comics, die in den 1930er-Jahren erstmals auftrat. DC Comics entzog Atari später die Lizenz zur Nutzung der Marke Superman wieder, da Atari auf Grund der hohen Nachfrage mit der Produktion nicht hinterherkam. Atari wollte den Flipper zwar dann unter einem anderen Namen vermarkten, allerdings wurde stattdessen schließlich die ohnehin nur mäßig erfolgreiche und kaum wettbewerbsfähige Pinball Division im Mai 1979 geschlossen. |
