most were jewish. look at early Superman by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster he is a metaphor of a jewish immigrant in the early 1900's only faster than a speeding bullet and able to leap buildings in a single bound

Yeah there's a funny little bit in a comic on comicbook creators that took place back in the early 1940s in which Stan was talking to Joe Simon about changing his name. Simon "So you want to change your name from Stan Lieber to 'Stanley'?!? is that going to be your first name or your last name?" Stan "Which ever you think sounds best Joe" Simon "I think it sounds Chinese"

@cha5 well i think the only one who changed his name to get a job was stan lee, think he said he was afraid they wouldnt give him a job at marvel cause he was a jew, but i wasnt saying kirby was afraid, just realized most of the earlier artists were jewish lol

"It was just a desire to sound like a "professional". "Kurtzberg" didn't sound like a famous writer and artist. "Kirby" he thought did" 'Kirby: King Of Comics'

A large amount of the major comicbook creators of the 1930s-1940s were poor Jewish kids from New York's Lower East Side, Will Eisner Jack Kirby Joe Simon Siegel & Shuster Bob Kane Harvey Kurtzman Will Elder Bernie Krigstein Stan Lee and alot of others, Kirby's original name was Jacob Kurtzberg. According to Mark Evanier one way to really get Kirby angry would be to suggest he changed his name because he wanted to conceal his Jewish heritage.
