Kids adore him. Adults enjoy him.
Superman has fascinated even the scholars and the critics who were exploring
the impact of superman in the US and worldwide. Superman’s appearance is
distinctive. He usually wears a blue costume with a red and yellow emblem on
the chest, consisting of the letter ‘S’ in a shield shape and a red cape.
Superman is widely considered as an American cultural icon. The character has
been adopted extensively and portrayed in the other forms of media as well,
including films and television series. Several actors have portrayed superman
in motion pictures and television serials.
The character superman was created
by two high school kids- Siegelend (writer) and JoeShuster (artist) in the year
1933, but they sold their creation to D.C Comics in 1938. Superman made his
debu in action in D.C Comics and subsequently appeared in radio comics,
newspaper strips, television programs, and films and even in video games with
high success.
It is this month (April) in 1938
that superman made his debu as the cover
feature of the action comics. He is one of the longest running superheroes in
the comic books. Superman is a sci-fi character. He was born as Kal-EL on the planet
krypton and was sent to earth by his scientist father Jor-EL before planet
krypton was destroyed. On the earth the child is raised as ClarkKent. As a
young boy he had strong moral instinct and at an early age he started to
display superhuman abilities. Superman has been described variously as man of
steel, man of tomorrow and the lost son of krypton. Superman resides and
operates in a fictional American city. ClarkKent is a
journalist for the daily planet, a city newspaper. Superman is also in love
with Lois Lane.
Superman who defeats the evil and
saves the mankind is a fictional reel character. A hard truth is that situation
on earth is no different from the situation in his films. Bad elements in our
society have made common man’s life a hell. To defeat the real bad elements on
earth, how we wish that we had had a real……
‘Superman’.
P.S. your feedback will be highly
appreciated.
Although it would be wonderful to have a superman solve all our problems, unfortunately real life doesn't work that way. It is time each common man brings out the superman in him/her and make this world a better place to live in.
