Once Upon A Time The Super Heroes (2 of 10)

Once Upon A Time The Super Heroes

This is a documentary made in 2002 about the creation and evolution of comic book superheroes (with a greater leaning towards Marvel comics.)

It show us superheroes such as Batman, Superman, The Flash, The X-Men, Captain America, Silver Surfer, The Fantastic Four, Hulk, Daredevil; with more of a focus on Spider-Man because of the movie released at the time.

The documentary features the creators, writers & artists behind the superheroes such as Dave Gibbons, Alex Ross, Jack Kirby, Stan Lee, Travis Charest, John Romita, Joe Kubert, Jim Lee, Carmine Infantino, Joe Simon, Mark Evanier, Paul Dini, Neal Adams, Joe Quesada, John Buscema, Bill Sienkiewicz and radio interview with Jerry Siegel.

Wow... Hearing Siegel speak he sounds like the absolute, quintessential nerd. A "Supernerd", if you will. :-)

At the risk of sounding ignorant which I am I'm gonna ask anyway: does anyone know who the artist at 1:55 is?

In contrast to the explanation about super heroes in cities, the Hulk always worked best out in the open. Maybe because he was as much a force of massive destruction as a super "hero."

@AzraelKnight speaking of Detroit, I noticed that in the movie Robocop and its sequels, the setting is in Detroit but were shot in Dallas, Houston and then Atlanta and used these cities as the backdrop for Detroit.

The fact all three cities are more vibrant and provide a better skyline.

No offense but some Europeans like comics others don't, so Neal Adams is being a bit short sighted if he thinks that more Americans than Europeans like comics. Also when people say "They 're very American..." America has the same values and ideals as all western countries and very few Europeans look at super heroes and thinks they represent America. We think they represent the good in all of us, regardless of wether we American or not....

Chicago. Isn't it the place where The Dark Knight was shot? :) (Yeah, I know what you mean)

Cisco would be great. After watching Dirty Harry or some other great crime movie classics (Bullitt) it seems like that's a city of millions of exciting (crime) stories.
