About Superman Day
National Superman Day is observed on June 12th every year since DC Entertainment announced it in 2013. The day is celebrated to honor the "Man of Steel".
Superman was first created in 1933 by Joe Shuster and Jerry Siegel, the writer and artist respectively. His first appearance was in Action Comics #1, and that was the beginning of a long and illustrious career for the Man of Steel. In his unmistakable blue suit with red cape, and the stylized red S on his chest, the figure of Superman has become one of the most recognizable in the world.
