    Becoming Superman: My Journey From Poverty to Hollywood HC (2019 Harper Voyager) 1-1ST


    (see more images)

    1st printing.

    By J. Michael Straczynski.

    For four decades, J. Michael Straczynski has been one of the most successful writers in Hollywood, one of the few to forge multiple careers in movies, television, and comics. Yet there's one story he's never told before: his own. Joe grew up in abject poverty, living in slums and projects when not on the road, crisscrossing the country in his father's desperate attempts to escape the consequences of his past. Joe found refuge in his beloved comics and his dreams, and his ability to tell stories and make everything come out the way he wanted it. But even as he found success, he could not escape a dark and shocking secret that hung over his family's past.

    Becoming Superman lays bare the facts of his life: a story of creation and darkness, hope and success, a larger-than-life villain and a little boy who became the hero of his own life.

    Volume 1 - 1st printing. By Ed Gross. Comic book super heroes first came into their own at the beginning of World War II, when America felt overwhelmed both at home and overseas. It somehow seemed that more than a mere man was needed to fight for truth, justice, and the American way. Superman was the first and greatest of those heroes. Fittingly, he was also one of the first, and most successful heroes to hit the silver screen and television. Two decades later a revival took place in the ranks of the super hero. Again America seemed to be floundering, our international enemies racing ahead of us in the sciences and turmoil filling our hearts at home. This time a small publisher of horror comics tried their hand at creating a guardian who believed that with great power came great responsibility. He was a hero with human foibles, not really more than human, just gifted with great power. Spider-Man had arrived and he would help to make Marvel Comics the largest publisher of its kind in the country. SUPERMAN and SPIDER-MAN, flagships for the two largest publishers of four color fantasies in America. Both of them have had interesting careers in celluloid as well as on newsprint. In this book, Edward Gross, a contributing columnist to the nation's largest magazine about comics, COMICS FEATURE, as well as to a variety of publications about film, begins to tell the story. Softcover, 8 1/2-in. x 11-in., 58 pages, B&W. Cover price $5.95.
