origin & 1st app. of Superman by Siegel and Shuster
Action Comics #1 continues to be recognized as the most important event in the history of comics publishing. This is the book that introduced
Superman as a fantastic new kind of hero, as created by teen visionaries Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. The inspiring Man of Steel became an instant icon to Depression-era readers before transforming into a symbol of national pride during the brutal days of WWII.
Since then, Superman has spent decades as one of the world’s most recognizable fictional characters — transcending comics and pop culture as the face of truth, justice, and the American way. It's also clear that Superman’s first appearance will continue to be cherished by future generations. The making of DC Studios’ upcoming big-screen
Superman has already become one of 2024’s biggest showbiz stories.
