I always regarded Popeye as a precursor to superheroes, and he certainly helped to pave the way. I think one of the main reasons he is viewed this way was the more comedic tone of Popeye strips. Some other characters with a good claim as a precursor to Superman would be the Shadow, the Phantom, etc. The publication of Action #1 marked the beginning of something different I believe from earlier prototypes and that is why most historians have marked the beginning of superheroes with that book.
Could you write in description everything you said during the video? I and from Brazil and i’m looking forward to use this video in school. However I need to subtitle it, and i couldn’t quite understand everything you said.
First Super HERO was POPEYE 1929.

I like that bit saying Comic Books are a "Secular Mythology". Clever ;D

Congress didn't impose the CCA. It was self-imposed by the industry.

@andy68916 Very true. I did this all in the course of a few days, and obviously flubbed that part, though not intentionally.
