Superman was inspired by Moses from the Bible, who parted the sea fleeing the Egyptians and collected the Ten Commandments.1 This metaphor has been used to refer to Superman since his conception in 1933 when Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster first came up with the idea while still in high-school.
"In Red Son, Superman's rocket ship lands on a Ukrainian collective farm rather than in Kansas. As an adult he becomes state-sponsored superhero whose civilian identity is kept a state secret, and who in Soviet radio broadcasts, is described not as fighting for "truth, justice, and the American Way", but as "the Champion of the common worker who fights a never-ending battle for Stalin, socialism, and the international expansion of the Warsaw Pact".
