Superboy puts on a show with her where he uses his powers to make her seem superhuman ; during this contest, she is called Super-Girl.

As Super-Girl, Queen Lucy wears a tan dress with a brown cape and Superboy's " S " symbol.

After positive fan reaction to Super-Girl, the first recurring and most familiar version of Supergirl debuted in 1959.

Besides Dick Tracy, Capp parodied many other comic strips in Li ' l Abner — including Steve Canyon, Superman ( at least twice ; first as " Jack Jawbreaker " in 1947, and again in 1966 as " Chickensouperman "), Mary Worth, Peanuts, Rex Morgan, M. D., Little Annie Rooney and Little Orphan Annie ( in which Punjab became " Punjbag ," an oleaginous slob ).

Clark wears his Superman costume underneath his street clothes, allowing easy changes between the two personae — and the dramatic gesture of ripping open his shirt to reveal the familiar " S " emblem when called into action.

The CBS Saturday morning series The New Adventures of Superman produced by Filmation Studios — as well as The Adventures of Superboy from the same animation house — featured the iconic " shirt rip " to reveal the " S " or Clark Kent removing his unbuttoned white dress shirt in a secluded spot, usually thanks to stock animation which was re-used over dozens of episodes, to reveal his costume underneath while uttering his famed line " This is a job for Superman!

Kryptonite is a fictional material from the Superman mythos — the ore form of a radioactive element from Superman's home planet of Krypton.

It is famous for being the ultimate natural weakness of Superman and most other Kryptonians, and the word Kryptonite has since become synonymous with an Achilles ' heel — the one weakness of an otherwise invulnerable hero.

He is regularly captured by Superman and sent to prison, only to escape — in a manner similar to the comics — at the opening of the next film.

Throughout the 1950s, Mad featured groundbreaking parodies combining a sentimental fondness for the familiar staples of American culture — such as Archie and Superman — with a keen joy in exposing the fakery behind the image.

Lois Lane and Jimmy Olsen constantly suspected Clark Kent of being Superman, yet when obvious evidence was right in their faces — such as times when Clark was missing his glasses — they never saw the resemblance.

Since the debut of the prototypical superhero Superman in 1938, stories of superheroes — ranging from brief episodic adventures to continuing years-long sagas — have dominated American comic books and crossed over into other media.

The young, flawed, and brooding antihero Spider-Man became the most widely imitated archetype in the superhero genre since the appearance of Superman and Batman .— Bradford W.

Among them was an explanation of why the natives of Krypton perished if they had possessed super powers on their native world ( as was the case in the earliest versions of Krypton outlined above, although this only became a problem once Superman — and by extension anyone from Krypton — was portrayed as increasingly powerful, able to withstand nuclear explosions, contrasted with his original power level in which a bursting mortar shell could penetrate his skin ).

Superman vows to fight on despite the grim future, and Destiny — who reveals herself as Harbinger — and the Monitor later discuss the hero.

* Lois Lane ( Superwoman ) — The first comic to feature a female counterpart to Superman is " Lois Lane-Superwoman ", a story published in Action Comics # 60 ( May 1943 ), in which a hospitalized Lois dreams she has gained Kryptonesque superpowers thanks to a blood transfusion from the Man of Steel.
