I can't believe you didn't mention that in the Golden Age, and by extension Earth-Two, Superman's family name was literally just the letter L. His birth name was Kal-L, his father was Jor-L, his uncle Zor-L. Not "El", just L

@miriamrosemary9110 4 жыл бұрын
I definitely think El meaning God in Hebrew is relevant. It's so fitting for superman. I'm not sure about Kal meaning 'voice' though, because the word for 'voice' is pronounced 'Kol'. 'Kal' קל in Hebrew means easy, or light-weight, and I'm not sure how that fits into the superman lore, unless you think of him as a light version of God, like a demi-God. That could fit. Either way it's fun to speculate ;)

I wish this video was longer! this was a really cool angle to look at the superman mythos and even tho I knew Sups have a LOT of jesus references in him (especially in the movies) I´ve never conected the "el" to the bible, that was really cool. It seems like you really like this kind of scripted content when you talk about smart stuff but it would be really cool if you could make some interviews/podcast thing with some of the writers of the source material you use. Anyhow wow Scott great moves keep it up, proud of you.

The main thing there is differentiating between the bible and the torah as pointed out they were born into Jewish families so where Christianity likes to focus on Jesus a bit more, they wouldn't have, however the Jesus references were more in tune with the fact that America it self is a bit of a Christian country so as time goes on it would be more likely that this person that represents truth, Justice, and the American way would be more steered to a more Christian comparison
@Yurt_enthusiast7
@Yurt_enthusiast7 6 жыл бұрын
Yeah maybe Jesus was the wrong word to use by me, Superman has a lot "saviour" in him, who is a concept that is prevalent in all the Abrahamic religions (prophets, apostles and the like) the likeness Scott mentioned between Sups and Moses could just be that the trope of a son of kings who is sent away due to the risk of death and becomes a leader in a faraway country and later triumphant returns home is a popular story that echoes true almost all religions and societies true history. Siegel and Schuster could just have been inspired by this loose concept.

Superman wasn't originally meant to be a Messiah figure. He was more a take on The Invisible Man by H.G. Wells, but Messiahs sell better. The origin story of Moses is copied from the Gilgamesh Epos. It's a good story, but the actual history it is based on is a bit different. Still, considering that it was an oral tradition until it was written down, and considering the circumstances it was written down in, those changes are understandable. They made the story more relatable to the audience. Ultimately it doesn't matter if Kal-El is a metaphor for Jesus or Moses or Emmanuel. He is an alien threat.
@paulwilliams7647

The modern (especially cinematic) Christian imagery and references in the depiction of Superman are so blatant and obvious, he has been sitting in my head cannon as (one of oh so very many) "Jesuses of Fiction" (for want of a better phrase). Despite knowing his Jewish paternity (and perhaps as a bi-product of a slightly christiocentric spin generally in Western media) the Moses parallel simply did not occur to me. Unfortunately, in considering whether this initial similarity was deliberate on the part of his creators, the highly suspicious part of my brain wonders the same about his subsequent "jesusification". Certainly interesting, if potentially alarming; but, not, I feel, suitable content for this channel (or, possibly the whole Internet). Besides, there's an argument for the whole Superhero genre as a modern interpretation of the classical hero (hercules/heracles, ulyses/odysseus, perseus, etc) and, I suspect, academics can trace the roots of those to even longer ago, in yet another culture's backyard. There may not be enough string in the world.
@sketchstevens5859
@sketchstevens5859 6 жыл бұрын
The biblical influence is very likely since both of his creators are Jewish and basically created a modern age angel. On top of that, Superman is practically Moses and it's not like it takes away from his character. The rest of the Ls can be explained as a nice little artistic Easter egg since the JoJo author factors in band references with his characters which may sometimes have a huge connection but it is just a fun thing to do with the character and I think it is also there just to make us readers just take a look at these characters and draw up our own conclusions of them. Just like how Lex Luthor's name has its own secret meaning

As an amateur comic nerd I was like "Oh, the double L story, that's old news!" But, not surprisingly, you proved me wrong. This was excellent. I was genuinely surprised by the alliterative "EL" being on Superman's symbol itself. Well spotted! It *sounds* amazing and I *want* it to be true, but as you point out, it was retconned in much later. If the Marlon Brando story is correct, then it's not some clever design but entirely an accident! I get it, sometimes serendipity happens but I was hoping this story was "more real" in some way. It feels a bit more like an optical illusion.

One of my favorite stories that plays with the L thing is Red Son and the way it suggests that Superman is actually a descendant of Lex Luthor that was sent backwards through time, so the surname really is just “L,” rather than “El.” Obviously, that’s an elseworlds book, but I still think it’s a cool idea.

So to add to the religious bit. There's a book called Tobit (that some people leave out) which has a character disguised as a human, but who reveals himself to be an angel called Raphael. The El suffix is particularly prominent with angels, Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, and some traditions have other named angels with that suffix. Raphael is interesting though because he says he's one of seven who stand before the throne of God. Seven. Like JLA seven. Surely a coincidence, but a cool one nontheless.

It was an S for nearly 70 years in the comics. It ALWAYS stood for Superman until the Donner films and some subsequent TV shows. Hell, the Man of Steel mini-series had Martha create it AFTER Lois dubbed him Superman. It wasn't until the Birthright mini-series that it became a Kryptonian symbol in comics and even there it varied as to whether it was a symbol for Krypton as a whole or just Superman's family.

Here are a couple of questions that has plagued me since childhood. I know the original idea of Supermans costume is made from his baby blanky (??) but 1. How was it cut and with what was it sewn? His costume is indestructable so...? And also, How does it change size with him from Superboy to Superman? Does it have an integral ability to morph to the correct size? If you've answered these in a previous video, I apologize for my ignorance. Thanks man. Great channel, very informative and fun.

peter blood Originally, Ma Kent sewed it by unraveling blankets found with Clark in his shuttle. They're similarly as tough as he is, so he would cut the string with his heat vision whilst she was sewing.

Okay, that all seems logical although I would still have to wonder what she used for a needle. Also...the size of the baby blanky and it's ability to morph.

El is not one of the names of God, El means god. "The house of EL" is actually not really about the letter "L" but from the hebrew word for god "EL", so superman is from "the house of god". And superman's full kryptonian name is Kal El witch in hebrew means Light God.(Kal = light, El = god)
