It does sound like a bootleg, lol. Like Turkish Superman.
Japanese Spider-Man is official, though. And he's glorious (I really hope he shows up in Beyond the Spider-Verse).

Kilink İstanbul'da aka "Kilink in Istanbul" (1967) -- screen grab.
If you've never seen this movie, you're in for a treat with its pirated versions of assorted John Barry James Bond cues; 'Superhero', it's bizarre mash-up of Batman, Superman and CC Beck's Captain Marvel; and, of course, the vicious, murderous, skeleton-clad criminal mastermind, KILINK -- a Turkish bootleg of the Italian character, Killing, who is an Italian rip-off of Kriminal, another Italian character. Everything here is a xerox of a xerox. Even this copy of the film which is a dodgy, murky rip with random, bad, jump-cut edits -- which is exactly how movies like this should be watched! Settle in and ENJOY.

Three Supermen Against the Godfather (1979)
Film review #549
Director: Italo Martinenghi
SYNOPSIS: A scientist has invented a time machine, and uses it to travel back in time in Turkey to the fall of Constantinople, to learn the location of the treasure hidden before the city was sacked. The two thieves known as the supermen learn of this, and decide to try and take the time machine for themselves. But they’re not the only ones interested in it, as an Italian mafia boss, foreign powers, and once again, FBI agent Brad is sent to work with the supermen (against his will) to secure the time machine and protect the inventor...
THOUGHTS/ANALYSIS: Three Superman Against the Godfather (released as Süpermenler in Turkey) is a 1979 film and another instalment of the Three Supermen series of films. This time, the supermen are after a time machine invented by a scientist (not the same one who invented a similar time machine in Three Supermen in the West, of which there is no mention), with the aim of going back to the fall of Constantinople in the fifteenth century, to find out where the royal treasure was buried before it was lost. The two international thieves known as the supermen learn about the machine and decide they want to steal it for themselves, but an Italian mafia boss and some foreign powers are also after the device and the professor; and as always, FBI agent Brad (or whatever his name is this time) is sent by the U.S. to secure the professor and the machine himself, and is ordered to cooperate with the supermen, which he is reluctant to do because of the constant shenanigans he gets caught up in whenever he meets them. The film feels like a return to the classic formula of the films; after the Hong Kong co-production Supermen Against the Orient, which was more of a typical martial arts film that substituted the classic acrobatics with said martial arts, and also messed up what little continuity the series had. While it is a return, it should also be noted that this “original formula” was itself all over the place: some films were science-fiction based others were parodies of spy films, westerns, and so on. With this one, it’s obviously riffing on The Godfather and mafia films, and the sci-fi element of time travel doesn’t really factor into the film at all: they only travel once in the beginning to demonstrate that it works.
As always with the Three Supermen films, the main actors have a bit of a shake up, with only Sal Borgese as the mute superman keeping his role as he has through most of these films. To make things even more confusing this time, Aldo Canti, who played one of the supermen in the first film, returns to the series, but he is instead playing the role of the FBI agent this time, with the other role going to prolific Turkish actor Cüneyt Arkın. The choice of actors doesn’t really make too much of a difference, as their characters aren’t too developed in any particular way, but it’s just interesting to follow this revolving door of casting. The reason for Arkin’s casting is because the film’s production has moved from Italy to Turkey, and I guess his casting would have some appeal to the local market.
The reason for the move from Italy to Turkey is fairly interesting: Italian media became more focused on television, and moved away from cinema in the mid-late 70′s. As such, there was an exodus of sorts of Italian filmmakers to Turkey, where their type of cinema was still more popular. Nevertheless, it would seem this film was hardly released to any cinemas at all, and is probably the most difficult to get a hold of in the franchise. While the film does have the usual slapstick moments, scantily-clad women, and some stunts, we don’t get the typical acrobatics we usually do, probably because the newer cast aren’t actually acrobats, and the older cast probably can’t pull the feats off anymore (remember that this franchise would have been twelve years old in 1979). Overall, Three Supermen Against The Godfather is, for better, or worse, a return to the typical Three Supermen formula that is full of a heap of different ideas and directions that don’t really cohere, but it’s still just a bit of silly fun.

So I have this for the question stuff
"Can tou tell me what this mysterious man who stopped Superman with a single hand is?" Lois Lane stood in front of a local of Hub City.
The construction man sighs blowing smoke from his cigar into her face. "You're lucky it was the drunk that broke up that fight." He sighs again. "You ain't from here you won't get far."
"Wait sir what do you mean by that?" She tries to follow but the mam went back to his job site. She huffs. "Jimmy how many is that?"
"Oh uh 56 now, and the answers are consistent." Jimmy hums smiling.
"Oh for heavens sake, for a city that's worse then Gotham it's hard to find these colorful goons that love to blab." Lois sighs spotting a red headed man who looks like he hasn't slept in days drinking something that shouldn't exist.
"Ah excuse me sir what do you know of the man who stopped Superman with a single hand?" Lois asks holding out her microphone to the tired man.
The red-headed man blinks. He takes a drink from his cup that has an extremely strong smell coming from it. It reminded Lois of the barely classified tea that was nothing but pure caffeine. "Look uh..." He fiddles with his gloves looking down clearly uncomfortable. His voice reminds her of something and she can't help but think of Clark telling her about a faceless conspiracy theories that actually stopped a disaster.
"Why are the people of this city so tight lipped about its villains and heroes? Is it true that Hub City is the place heroes and villains vanish or meet their their ends? If this city is more dangerous then Gotham, why are there no more heroes or even villains trying to destroy the city out in the open?"
The man blinks, frowning. "I uh its early?." He mumbles, taking another drink. "Risk is high attacking during the day..... villains and heroes know better than to do anything during the day.... it's not Gotham.... night is dangerous business closes at sunset." He mutters under his breath. "Fighting during the day.... that's suicide."
Lois tries to ask more questions, but the man rushes past her mutter about finding a stronger drink, and something about smiling woman lurks during the day.
"Well at least that was something." Lois sighs. "Maybe Clark is having a better time."
Hard cut to Clark
"So what about this kid. Is he safe? What happened? Did he get away from the abuse." Clark is kneeling helping a elderly woman with her shoes.
"My my deary aren't you kind. The little devil kid like from the Bible, poor thing always running around here never could get away from his chains." She hums. "Ah hello young man what are you doing down there."
Clark smiles and gets up going through this again. "Ah well I was asking around about a little boy with horns and a long tail."
"Ah yes the little devil such a sad little thing....."
.......
Victor groans only realizing after his 12 cup of Turkish tea he realized he accidently gave an interview to Lois Lane. Michael owed him.

This is a great summary of the meme people. Also I love that they use "spectacles" instead of "glasses." It's just neat.

"You are too kind, yakışıklı." The werewolf uttered through a quiet laugh to himself, referring to Chihiro as handsome in Turkish as easily as each breath. He was hardly accustomed to so many compliments in such a short period of time. Most people just seemed to comment on his tall and muscled build, expecting him to act a certain way, full of confidence and maybe even quick to anger or the first to start a fight, yet there he was full of compassion, just a big guy with a big heart. He'd been trained to be one way and ended up being another.
He could still be confident in his own way but never to the extent of arrogance. He knew what he was capable of and didn't feel he had to prove himself to anyone. For once he could just be himself.
There were times when he did miss his family and the pack, but at the same time, he certainly didn't miss having his every decision judged by his father or having his life already set in stone. "To our living dreams." He mused smoothly as his free hand wrapped around his bottle of beer, pulling it close for a decent sip. Yet as he did so, he noticed the other move his occupied hand down, coming to gently rest lower down, a breath momentarily catching in his throat as he lightly gripped the smaller man's waist. "Çok güzelsin…" Selim half whispered looking back at him, not even sure he'd meant to say it aloud. "I mean... I said you, uh... I said you are very beautiful." His deep eyes rolled at himself in amusement. "I am... not so smooth." At least he could laugh at himself as he pulled his bottle close for another swig.
Though suddenly sitting a little straighter, the werewolf leaned to the side to slip his phone from his side jean pocket, offering it out to Chihiro. "Yes, I will always meet you as soon as I can. As for superman? I... am not so much superman, but maybe, um..." He'd already started laughing before he could get the word out. "Wolfman?"
While he was busy fulfilling his dream Chihiro did find himself a lover here and there, some more significant than others. There was no hesitation when it came to what he wanted or whom he wanted, confidence always present despite that secret he had to hide. Still, unless it was something serious he didn't even think to disclose anything, much less to a human. Who would want to go through the hassle of being called crazy or worse, sold out to some crazy people on the look out for a supernatural threat. No, that would be far more damaging to his career than even being seen with a man would be. So there he was, keeping close to Selim while having taken matters into his own hands, still observing that handsome face. "I see that...it suits you." Although it was still surprising, he did not know many men of this statue that seemed this delicate on the inside. Especially not werewolves. It make the younger so much more special. "It seems that we are." Another sip from his cocktail before it was set back down, Chihiro finding it time to guide the arm around his shoulders further down. They were already close enough to do so and he was curious how this blushing puppy of a man would react to it. While Chihiro was built himself with firm muscle hidden underneath comfortable clothes, his waist was slim, perfect for a big palm to fit and rest against. "Refreshing way of asking for my number..I'll bite the bait." Displaying his palm, it was a silent ask to get Selim's phone. While initially he had planned on just asking the man up to his hotel room for a night of fun, the way things had developed along with how sweet the other was, in a way seeming so innocent, Chihiro decided to take it to exchanging contacts for something more. "So I call and you will come to me? Like superman?"

Three Supermen in Santo Domingo (1986)
Film review #551
Director: Italo Martinenghi
SYNOPSIS: FBI agent Brad Scott is once again required to team up with the international thieves known as “The Supermen,” this time they travel to Santo Domingo in South America to disrupt a money counterfeiting operation by some local crime gangs.
THOUGHTS/ANALYSIS: Three Supermen in Santo Domingo is a 1986 film and the final instalment in the Three Supermen series of films. The plot is fairly typical and familiar to those who have watched any of the other films: an FBI agent has to team up with the international thieves known as “The Supermen,” this time travelling to Santo Domingo to stop a counterfeiting operation run by a local gang. There’s no time travelling or outlandish elements in this film; it’s just a simple crimefighting, slapstick bit of fun, although obviously the supermen still have their bulletproof suits, that villains never quite work out that they could just shoot them in their uncovered heads. There’s a variety of action scenes (which consist of a fair amount of speeding up and reversing footage instead of actual stunts), and setups involving disguises, and elaborate plans, but nothing too exciting.
As always, the film revolves around the three supermen, and once again, they are played by different actors; all with the exception of one, Sal Borgese, who has been playing the mute superman since the second film (in the ones which you could consider “canon” anyway). The names of the characters also change quite a lot, and this time it seems like they’ve just resorted to calling Sal’s character Sal. The other two actors change every film, and this time the change is quite apparent, as they are obviously a lot younger than Sal. One of them is Stefano Martinenghi, who is the son of the director, and clearly only got the role because of this: he doesn’t really fit the role of the charming, cheeky lead. The actor playing the role of FBI agent Brad Scott also doesn’t really work because he seems way too young, and typically the role goes to someone who is older and more straight-laced, to balance with the supermen’s goofiness. There are glimmers of that personality, but not much. The rest of the cast aren’t really worth mentioning, as the villains don’t really stand out, and the supporting cast barely exist on screen.
It’s perhaps worth mentioning at this point that this film series has been going on for nearly twenty years at the time this film was made; and there is no reason for it to have done so. The original was a cheap b-movie that spoofed sci-fi and spy films that were popular in 1967, but had a somewhat interesting twist by having professional acrobats play the lead roles, which led to some fun action scenes and well-choregraphed fights. The first film, while nothing more than a typical b-movie, did everything it really needed to, but for some reason it became a series that went on to satirise other types of films, such as Westerns, cold war plots, martial arts films, and even got a Turkish rip-off version...which further still, somewhat fused with the Turkish rip-off scene when production of the films moved to Turkey. The whole production of this series is all over the place, but I suppose credit should be given to the films somewhat adapting to changing to cultural trends. Three Supermen in Santo Domingo doesn’t really offer anything special in this regard though, and while it keeps things simple, it definitely feels like a format that is well past its sell-by date in 1986, and since this is the final film in the series, the makers probably knew this too. Definitely deserves credit for going for twenty years, but its last hurrah is uneventful.
