Forgot to blog about this when it made the news

Superman's story: Did a fatal robbery forge the Man of Steel?

Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster were two awkward Jewish boys from Cleveland who went on to create the Man of Steel. Although he never mentioned it, the inspiration for Superman may be linked to the death of Jerry Siegel's father during a robbery, a crime that was never solved.
