Wonder why they were fretting about a potential lawsuit when the Superman name was safe to use (back then, at least, afaIk) in the public domain without legal implications. Six years later, XTC released a song called "You're Really Super, Supergirl" and (again, afaIk) there was no legal hassle over the title.
