Superman is the King of Superheroes, the first true comic book
character, who came to prominence as a result of the creative efforts of
two young man, Cleveland-born Jerome Siegel and Canadian-born, Joe
Shuster. He had a rough ride getting into print, but it was well worth
it, as he added to the war effort in the Second World War, helping to
defeat the enemy on the comic book pages, in the hearts of the readers,
and in the drive to sell war bonds. He was as much a hero as any
celebrity of the time.
Siegel and Shuster had great difficulty getting him into print, and once
there, he was wrested away from them by the commercial interests. Even
while the young men were off to fight the war themselves, home front
commercial interests sapped their creative talents, and it was only
years later that the two artists finally achieved the creative and
financial rewards of their efforts. Cartoons, movies, and countless
products have been produced throughout the years, and many early items
can still be found on the online auctions. And don't forget to check
out the history of
Superman for more on the creative roots from which he came.
