Jews.

I'd argue that superhero "culture" didn't really start until supervillains -- particularly the more colorful/cartoony ones -- became a standard part of cape comics.

I know that Action Comics and other things didn't have supervillains in the very beginning, but I'm not sure when the "first" Saturday-morning-esque supervillain was introduced.

I think it was already building up and was inevitable with the hero pulps, but Supes definitely shaped how it turned out. There's no telling if another character could fill the same role or what would be different if they did.

I think this got us closer to the modern superhero then the original Superman run.

I'd say the establishing of hard continuity, whenever that came, began the entire thing.

Superman's first was Ultra-Humanite in 1939.

I feel like it's before.

Have you notice that The Flash causes multiple continuity shifts? He's not a particularly good character, why is he so important?

>>83094488
Silly anon. /co/ culture began with the MCU.

>>83094488
Whenever Jerry Siegel stopped writing superman but DC just found a new writer, that was what started the whole /co/-like culture.
An industry based on fanfiction.
All it would take is simply taking the same characters and changing the look and names.
But people couldn't be bothered and here we are.

I feel like he's got one of the most interesting Super-power arsenals to write for.
I like that Barry Allen is a police officer.

why would you argue that, you sound like you dont know shit about comics

>>83094957
Do you know that wasn't a thing started by comic books?

>>83094897
For DC it's intentional now that Flash causes the continuity shifts.

It started because Barry read flash comics, and if he was reading Jay Garrick comics that had superman in them and Barry hangs out with superman, there's a continuity problem. Thus, parallel universes.

Waifus have been a thing since the paleolithic, art likewise.
