The best bet is to see if e2fsck can find a backup superblock (man e2fsck, see "-b" option). If you think there's on-disk corruption, you really want to take a copy of the disk before attempting that ("dd conv=sync,noerror" from one disk to a fresh one.) If e2fsck can find the backup superblock, it will be able to recreate the primary one so that the fs is mountable again.
