country this spring/summer/fall, including a talk at LA's
Skirball Cultural Center at 2 pm on June 2, 2013, with Jack

One of my favorite comic book artists I grew up with was
Superman artist Curt Swan. At the time I think I sort of
took his work for granted always looking forward more to
seeing someone's work like
John Byrne for example, but now as an adult I really
appreciate the clear crisp sort of classic look Swan brought
to Superman comics. I really miss seeing his type of art,
and the type of stories that accompanied those Silver Age
stories.
What makes a great Superman film?Just
thoughts I originally wrote before the release of Superman
Returns. A lot of fans felt Returns just didn't quite cut
it, not like Superman the Movie starring Christopher Reeve.
Hopefully, the new Man of Steel movie will capture that old
magic, and here's
a few things I hope they can keep in mind.
Explore why Superman and the American way
are inseparable. What's the history behind Superman's never
ending battle for truth, justice, and the American way?
It was over 70 years ago when
Superman arrived in Kansas from Krypton and was adopted by the
Kents. The comic book character catapulted superheroes into
American pop culture and become an instant classic. Today, the
American icon’s signature costume and “S” symbol is more
recognizable than any other superhero. more on

Since Kara Clark's cousin aka Supergirl is
making her way to Smallville in season 7. I thought it might
be a good idea to review the history of Supergirl. Who knows
what little details in comic history might be important in
getting the full enjoyment of this year's Smallville. So take
a minute to read
The History of Supergirl.
History

bizarre origins of Bizarro. Go from his first comic book
origins in Superboy to Smallville the TV series plus lots of
Bizarro images.

Miramax is releasing "Hollywoodland";
the film actually got a lot of attention nearly two years ago, back
when the film's title was "Truth, Justice and the American
Way" (which Warner nixed), when photo captures of Kyle
MacLachlan's screen test for Reeves appeared on the 'Net. more
Superboy
Prime Once there was a world with no superheroes. It was our
world. Then came Superboy Prime right at the end of the Crisis
on Infinite Earths. What is his origin? What caused him to
murder modern Superboy, Conner Kent? The story from the
hottest comic book mini series so far this decade.
Hollywood,
Television, and 1950s Typecasting How did it effect
the biggest stars of the 1950's, George Reeves and Clayton
Moore ,otherwise known to the world as Superman and the Lone
Ranger?
There is a misconception that all it
takes to play Superman is a good physique, an ability to
pretend to fly and do superhuman stunts, and to act like a
geek in glasses while playing Clark Kent.
Actually, Superman is a far more difficult role than that...an
actor must accept sixty years of the character being a part of
the "national consciousness more

true story about a young woman who is paralyzed but

Superman
on Candid Camera? It seemed appropriate since this is SupermanTV.net
that we should talk about the time Superman made an appearance
on one of the longest running shows in history Candid Camera.
But how can a comic book character become a victim of a Candid
Camera prank you ask? Click on the link above to find out.
Actors Actresses Movies Television Shows You've heard how everyone relates to Kevin
Bacon somehow well these above sections presents pictures, posters,
and photos of actors, actresses, and tv shows that somehow relate to
Superman one way or another. Like what's
To Kill a Mockingbird got to do with Superman or how
about Star
Wars? How about actors like Hugh
Jackman? He plays Wolverine, but he also once donned the
Superman suit.
