In this video, we dive deep into the roots of the Man of Steel by exploring Superman vs. the Mole Men (1951) and the groundbreaking Max Fleischer Superman cartoons of the 1940s. Long before the internet started throwing around terms like "woke," Superman was already standing up for outsiders, fighting against fear and prejudice, and defending the powerless.
Was Superman always progressive? We think so. Whether it’s protecting misunderstood underground people in Mole Men, or taking on corrupt war profiteers and fascist villains in the Fleischer shorts, Superman has always been about more than just super strength—he’s about moral strength.
And now, as we gear up for James Gunn’s Superman (2025), we ask: will this new version carry on that legacy of hope, justice, and standing up for what's right?
🦸♂️ From Krypton to Kansas to Metropolis—Superman has always been a hero for the people.
