The superhero, Superman was co-created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, in the 1930s. Best known as the ‘Man of Steel’, the character was initially conceived as a villain but evolved into a heroic character with extraordinary abilities. In 1938, Superman debuted in Action Comics #1 with his iconic blue costume and red cape. His origin story established him as Kal-El from Krypton, raised as Clark Kent in Smallville, becoming a champion of truth and justice. Superman's popularity soared, leading to numerous adaptations across various media, making him an enduring cultural icon. Oh, and by the way, Joe Shuster was born in Toronto!
