Review of Super hero's unmasked
To me the key points where how much comics changed over the years and how much they impacted on evens i would never think they would have any intrest in. How comic books help in the war agenced the Nazies,
how the superhero's changed to keep up with the times and the amazing new conceps they came up with.
I have read some comic books but only manga and those types of comics. Watching this documenutre I now have a better intrest in comic and it's history.
Superman
Timely Comic's became
The Documentury explaned the conspets of the man superhero's we know so well today for example Batman
Batman watched his mum and dad die from gunshot. This makes him obsessed with Juctice and catching crooks, batman was seen as a badass. But this was later on changed when he was turned into a father figure by adding a sidekick, Batman was one of the first comic's to have a child as a side kick, some other writers didn't like this consept as some saw it as putting the children in danger.
Comics where used as War properganda in world war 2 fighting agenced hitler, the Nazis & Japan
Comic where so pro American that people could of been under the impretion that the government had some say on what was being published but this was infact not true, comic writers felt they had to do something, some writers infact particapated in the war as they felt that they couldn't just write about it.

Superman
The inspiration for Superman came from republished comic strips in newspapers.
The creators of Superman couldn’t do anything at the time because they where young & Jewish but they didn't give up. Eventualy they had a brake through and where published in Action Comic.
The original Superman comics was based on 1938 where the world needed a hero!
Timely Comic's became MARVEL Comics!
The Documentury explaned the conspets of the man superhero's we know so well today for example Batman
Batman watched his mum and dad die from gunshot. This makes him obsessed with Juctice and catching crooks, batman was seen as a badass.

For example Superman and Captin america fought agenced Hitler in their comic's and the americans always won.
When this was leeked to a greman close to hitler then Nazi's called superman a Jew.
Comic where so pro American that people could of been under the impretion that the government had some say on what was being published but this was infact not true, comic writers felt they had to do something, some writers infact particapated in the war as they felt that they couldn't just write about it.
Comics where sent out in care packages during the war.
