Angus continues Superman Month with a review of New York World's Fair Comics Vol 1 Story 1 'Superman at the World's Fair'. The 1939–1940 New York World's Fair would accelerate the popularity of Superman.

This is all in celebration and great anticipation of Superman's return to the big screen in James Gunn's 'Superman' coming to theaters in July 2025!Superman: The Golden Age Vol. 1https://www.amazon.com/Superman-Golden-Action-Comics-1938-2011-ebook/dp/B01BLZX0RC/Faster than a speeding bullet, Superman burst onto the comic book scene in 1938, just as America was on the terrifying precipice of a world war. In a desperate time, legendary creators Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster brought to life the world's first modern superhero. The Man of Steel emerged as a champion of the oppressed, taking down any enemy with his super-strength and speed, both foreign and near to home. In his distinctive royal blue, red and yellow costume, complete with cape, the stalwart Kryptonian emanated strength and fearlessness.
