See the Batman movies are usually grouped into three different sections. The first “Batman” in 1966 is by itself since it is the only movie with a live action tv series attached to it and be in the same Batman universe. Each movie after that is connected not to television but other movies. In 1989 a reboot of Batman came out with the self-titled film “Batman.” Michael Keaton portrayed Bruce Wayne/Batman in this film and the sequel in 1992, “Batman Returns.” Due to the huge let down of the second installment by director Tim Burton, Joel Schumacher took over directing and Val
Each Action comic with a Superman storyline sold an average of 900,000 copies. The bi-monthly Superman comic sold an average of 1.3 million copies. In the wake of the Kryptonian revolution other comic companies tried to create their own ‘super’ heroes. DC comics knew that a one trick pony wasn’t the way to run a successful business. Working off the success of Superman, they asked a young cartoonist named Bob Kane to create a second costumed superhero for the company.
Few other comic-book series of recent decades have been as influential. Marvel first published The X-Men in 1963. The concept devised by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby was an extension of the Marvel formula already realized in such characters as Spider-Man and the Fantastic Four. The X-Men were teenaged costumed superheroes who used their powers in the service of humanity, even though the society at large misunderstood and feared them. Unlike their superhero peers, however, the X-Men had never even been human.
. . the Smallville version. A live action TV series, sort of a portrait of the superhero as a young man. Doc Savage doesn't have the same kind of pop culture ubiquity as Superman, obviously, nor the same sort of well-developed universe to draw from (only one recurring baddy, and he only appeared twice, and in general little attention to continuity from one novel to the next), so this show wouldn't rely so much on riffing on the established universe (i.e., let's do a red kryptonite episode) like "Smallville" seems to do.
Superheroes in Society In recent years, Hollywood has produced a plethora of movies depicting the world-saving exploits of a variety of comic book super-heroes. The seed of the 'super-craze' was sown back in the 70's with the release of a series of blockbusters featuring the classic DC hero Superman. Since the mid-nineties, however, the cinema has brought us Batman Returns, Batman Forever, Batman and Robin, Batman Begins, Spiderman I and II, The Phantom, X-Men I through III, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, The Fantastic Four, Hellboy, Daredevil, The Hulk, and many more different heroes to come. While most of these are just new twists on the original comic heroes, several attempts at new age superheroes have also been made, presumably to spark the interest of young viewers. Among these "unofficial" heroes are the famous Parr family in The Incredibles, the engaging Cortez family from the Spy Kids movies, a new teen Clark Kent from Smallville, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and the supers-in-training featured in the new Disney film Sky High.
Super man was created by American writer Jerry Siegel and American artist Joe Shuster in 1932 while both were living in Cleveland, Ohio. Superman was discovered and adopted by a Kansas farmer and his wife, the child is raised as Clark Kent and imbued with a strong moral compass. Very early he started to display superman abilities, which upon reaching maturity he resolved to use for the benefit of humanity. Superman possesses extraordinary power, with the character traditionally described as “faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive, and able to leap tall buildings in single bound.” Superman’s famous arsenal of powers has included flight, super-strength, invulnerability to non-magical attacks, super-speed, vision powers. The vision powers include x-ray, heat-emitting, telescopic, infra-red and microscopic vision.
Executive producers Brian Kelley and Matt Selman are the responsible behind this great Idea to make an episode of fully Lego-fied Simpson’s character and all Springfield. On their new Ad for this episode they are trying to persuade people that this is going to be a new and full blast episode. It is not the typical the Simpson’s episode’s that we always watch on the past 20 years. In order to make this episode more
Batman as a Cultural Icon The superhero has permeated American culture for more than a century. Graphic novels depicting heroes like Superman, Green Lantern, and The Flash grab the imagination, tapping into both the reader’s deep seated longing for the ideal and his fantasies of titanic power. The exception to the god-in-tights trope that otherwise defines the genre is The Batman. Unlike his iconic foil, Superman, Batman fights to the best of his ability without powers. Ironically, it’s this that makes him more powerful as a character.
His name is also the source of the term "superhero". DC Comics, which published under the names National and All-American at the time, received an overwhelming response to Superman and, in the years that followed, introduced Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, The Flash, Hawkman,Aquaman and Green Arrow. Although at the time DC dominated the market, The Human Torch and Sub-Mariner from Marvel Comics were also hits. During World War II, superheroes grew in popularity, surviving paper rationing and the loss of many writers and illustrators to service in the armed forces. The need for simple tales of good triumphing
