I was just trying to think at what age I discovered Superman. I think I was 6 or 7. You guys?
Superman
Character » Superman appears in 18939 issues.
Sent to Earth as an infant from the dying planet Krypton, Kal-El was adopted by the loving Kent family and raised in America's heartland as Clark Kent. Using his immense solar-fueled powers, he became Superman to defend mankind against all manner of threats while championing truth, justice, and the American way!
HOW OLD WERE you when you discovered Superman?
Honestly I couldn't say... I literally was too young to remember, as in 3 years old I'd guess as the youngest since there's photos of me at that age pretending to be Superman.
Still remember – 1995, winter, Saturday, around nine and half in the morning. I saw Superman: The Movie for the first time. It made quite an impression on me.
I was 6 years old.
@sanohibiki: cool
I was 7 when Superman The animated series started airing on tv where i live, before that only Batman Tas used to air and coupled with the 90's Batman movies coming out every two years and Action figures,i was a Batman lover but the first time i saw the promo for Superman tas and saw that red yellow and blue suit...I was enchanted. After watching a couple of eps. i was sooo into Superman, my dad dug up this VHS tape of Superman the movie that i didn't even know we had and you can guess what happened after that. It was just a plus that a few years after that Smallville started. Nothing's come between Supes and me ever since.
Superman has always been a part of my life.

holloween at eight years old when my mouthy cousin got beat up by a chubby older kid dressed in skin tight blue clothes and a red cape with a s on his chest. i laughed so hard i asked my dad what is he dressed as and he just looked on and said superman my son, greatest hero ever.
I think I was 5, and it was some old cartoon where superman could only jump far and be really strong, no flying
@tyreid: cool story but kind of disturbing you laughed at your cousin's beating. :/
I discovered Superman when I was 8 years old but I am introduced to Batman first by my grandmother, she bought me a tall Batman toy when i was 4 or 5 years old and then 5 inches Batman action figure as a Kinder graduation gift( I didn't even know that Batman have a best friend name Superman, all I know is Robin.lol) but anyway when I found out about Supes, I already know in my mind and in my heart that he is the Best of all the Superhero, I didn't even know before that he is an Alien. But now that I'm familiar with their History/Story, Superman is my Top favorite DC Superhero followed by Batman(#2) & GL(#3).
@ronsiconolfi: lol, no I guess not :)
Very young maybe around 4? But I didn't become a fan until I started watching the animated series, JL, JLU all those!
Ive known Superman since I was in elementary school but I started to like him and become a fan of the character when I was 19.
@holyserpent: yeah many grew up with that show
