- From the Wiki page on SupermanJerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, then students at Cleveland's Glenville High School, first conceived Superman as a bald telepathic villain bent on world domination. The character first appeared in "The Reign of the Superman", a short story from Science Fiction: The Advance Guard of Future Civilization #3, a fanzine published by Siegel in 1933. Siegel re-envisioned the character later that year as a hero bearing no resemblance to his villainous namesake, with Shuster visually modeling Superman on Douglas Fairbanks Sr. and his bespectacled alter ego, Clark Kent, on a combination of Harold Lloyd and Shuster himself, with the name "Clark Kent" derived from movie stars Clark Gable and Kent Taylor.

- From the Wiki page on The Reign of the SupermanAccording to a 1983 interview with Siegel, he first wrote the short story "The Reign of the Superman" in 1932. Inspired by Friedrich Nietzsche's idea of an Übermensch, Siegel's original story featured his first Superman as a powerful villain bent on dominating the entire world.

Tumblr - Thus Spoke Nietzsche: http://thus-spoke-nietzsche.tumblr.com/ ... e-volume-2At the risk of sounding unnecessary cheesy and vomit-inducingly sentimental and disgustingly-spine-tinglingly maudlin and - you get the point: you’re unique. “Become what you are,” a motto often repeated by Nietzsche to mean individual progression, fulfilment and - in a sense- eudaimonia. Yourself is a collection of competing wills and desires, all of which manifest from one ultimate ontological principle - the will to power. Every moment both a civil and inter-will war wages on behalf of the will to power; each fighting for what all good soldiers fight for: freedom. Nobody else has the tension of spirit and consciousness as you have; so use them to overcome yourself in everything you think and do so that you may become, not only what, but who, you are.
