Thoughts on superhero summaries?[edit]

I feel that the list should be kept as uniform as possible. At this point I think that we should either have flavor text (short descriptions) for all, or for none. At this point I think that erring for none should suffice. The superheroes/characters listed have their own pages for detailed information, and I think comics publishers suffice for information.

Dark Horse Comics: Judah the Hammer (Hammer of God).

For some of these, maybe some sourcing, since Jewish isn't mentioned in the character biography on their own page. (Is Booster Gold included, just because his last name is Gold?)

Superman[edit]

I once read some interesting speculation (not sure where) that Superman had to be Jewish, in light of the "el" in "Kal-El" and the fact that his creators (at least one of them) were Jewish. DC Comics, as far as I know, has never commented on this speculation. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 22:20, 24 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
