Analyses how we make meaning while reading comics and the primary factors that influence our readings of the Bible. First, this is evident in the way biblical scholars treat Samson, and second, through readers claiming Superman is Jewish or Christian. Superman and the Bible shows we cannot read the Bible without reading Superman.

In 1938, Superman debuted, jumping off the pages of Action Comics #1. In the cultural context of the Great Depression and World War II, the U.S. would see the rise of the superhero not only in comic books but in radio programs, animated cartoons and television shows. Superman forever changed one''s concept of the hero and became permanently engrained in both American and worldwide culture.

This study explores the Man of Steel''s narrative as a fresh perspective on readings of the Bible--his character is reflected in such figures as Moses, Samson and Jesus. The author argues that if we read the Bible it can be said we are reading about Superman.
