Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster are the undisputed creators of the Man of Steel, respectively writing and drawing his adventures from Action Comics No. 1 and on for several years. Both eventually moved on to create and write other characters, with Siegel working on The Spider and other British boys' comics, also creating the comic strip Funnyman with Shuster. Sadly, Shuster died in 1992, and Siegel in 1996. They will always be remembered, by comics lovers and Superman fans the world over.
