In Canada, Joe Shuster is considerably less famous than his cousin Frank, who worked _as_ a comic, as 1/2 of comedy duo Wayne & Shuster. They had their own national show for ages on the CBC, and used to make appearances on Ed Sullivan.

While I’m sure we’d still have comics without Superman, we certainly wouldn’t have the comics industry as we know it. I can’t imagine it being anywhere near as strong as it is (or has been in the past) if Joe Shuster and Jerry Siegel hadn’t made their mark back in 1938.

I was initially surprised that there were so few comments. I mean, it’s Joe Shuster! But I guess it goes to show how much we all take his work for granted.

We wouldnâ€™t have comics without Superman.

Surely, you mean, “We wouldn’t have superhero comics”? There’s a big difference.

Thanks for that great link.
