Iron Studios brings a new large and lifelike statue of Superman! Considered by many to be the first superhero, responsible for popularizing the genre and establishing its conventions. With his unmistakable classic uniform composed of a blue leotard, his chest symbol with the letter "S" in the form of a crest, his red boots, long scarlet cape, iconic red trunks, and yellow belt form the image of the hero of heroes. Much more than a character worshipped for decades, for 86 years he has been a reference in global pop culture. Since 1938, his stories have been regularly published in periodical comic books by DC Comics, making him the best-selling superhero until the 1980s.
On a display base with metallic textures and a futuristic design inspired by the architecture of his city, Metropolis, and visually inspired by some of his most successful award-winning comic books, Iron Studios presents the Superman DC Trinity 1/4 Legacy Replica statue, in a lifelike representation of the Man of Steel created with extreme attention and care, with rigor and precision to the tiniest details. Created in 1938 by Joe Shuster and Jerry Siegel, Superman is Kal-El, his original name, one of the last survivors of the extinct planet Krypton, sent to Earth as a baby by his biological father, a renowned scientist. On Earth, he was found by a couple of farmers who raised him exemplarily, and as an adult, he took on the disguise of reporter Clark Kent, an activity through which he could stay informed of all events, using his powers to pro tect humanity both alone and alongside his allies in the Justice League. A multimedia character since his origins, Superman had his first adaptation in a radio program in 1940, a series of animated shorts in the movie theaters produced by Fleischer Studios in 1941, his first live-action adaptation in a 1948 TV show portrayed by actor Kirk Alyn, a 1951 movie, and a TV series from 1953 to 1958 with George Reeves. The first major-budget film in 1978 starred Christopher Reeve, with three sequels, various animated series, a series of animated films released directly to video, TV shows, films in the DC Extended Universe, video games, toys, collectibles, and all kinds of merchandising products.
