		Joe was also greatly impressed by Toronto's vitality and size, especially when he became a newsboy and began to get a clearer sense of his surroundings.

		Joe Shuster was born in Toronto, Canada on July 10, 1914.
		Shuster would leave the comics field during the late forties, and Siegel's presence was very limited at best until finally he also left comics.
		Indeed, under his own inks, Shuster was very polished and illustrative, and his style itself became a model for many artists in the comic book industry during the thirties until the art of Lou Fine, Will Eisner, Jack Kirby and the influence of Hal Foster, Caniff and Alex Raymond revolutionized the medium.

		Cassidy loved back views, cape tricks and reclining figures and was clearly a superior draftsman to Shuster, but somehow, he failed to capture the power of the Man of Steel.
		However, he was particularly adept at mimicking Shuster's approach towards children, and thus quite suited to this sequence.

	TMe: DC Comics stands to lose half the rights to Superman
		Superman was created by Siegel and Shuster in the early '30s and went through a number of incarnations before the two finally sold the character to DC Comics (then Detective Comics) in 1938 for a reported $130, which included the copyright and a contract to supply DC with future Superman stories.
		Siegel and Shuster made a good living as comic creators in the early '40s, but were increasingly convinced that DC owed them more money, as the publisher had fully exploited the character and spinoffs such as Superboy and Starman, and was making millions on Superman comics and other merchandise.
		Shuster was so down on his luck that a comics industry tale has it that he once delivered a message to the offices of DC Comics, where he was recognized and asked up to the then-president's office.

		"Like me, he was a science fiction fan; we published a fanzine called Science Fiction, with Joe as art director and myself as editor." In the January 1933 issue, Siegel's The Reign of the Superman, illustrated by Shuster, saw print.
		One summer night in 1934, Siegel came up with almost all of the Superman legend as we know it, wrote weeks of comic strips by morning, and had Shuster drawing it all the next day - including the creation of Clark Kent, Lois Lane, and Superman's distinctive red, yellow, and blue costume.
