Ricca, 2014: "What really pushed Jerry in this direction was an article about comics called "The Funny Papers" that he read in Fortune magazine. The article begins with the shocking fact that "some twenty comic-strip headliners are paid at least $1,000 a week." The article describes in detail how syndicates such as the Chicago Tribune and even Cleveland’s Newspaper Enterprise Association (NEA) worked for writers and artists to put their strips into hundreds of papers. According to the article, this "is how the strips get into Big Money." So much so that "the headliners usually get 50 per cent of the gross income." […] As far as artists go, "In many cases they were not artists at all, but just fellows with a knack for sketching who thought of a good idea or a funny character that ‘made a hit’ with an editor and eventually with newspaper readers.""

Jones, 2004: A Humor comic starring the character Detective Dan "…wasn't much better than what he and Joe could do — but it was in print. And its publication didn't depend on the distant and indifferent world of newspaper syndication but on what was, in Jerry's mind at least, the far more familiar world of cheap magazines.

In an interview with Andrae, 1983, Shuster said he destroyed their 1933 Superman comic as a reaction to Humor Publishing's rejection letter, which contradicts Siegel's account in Siegel's unpublished memoir. Tye, 2012 argues that the account from the memoir is the truth, and that Shuster lied in the interview to avoid tension. Andrae, Thomas. "Of Supermen and Kids with Dreams".

Over the years, Siegel and Shuster made contradictory statements regarding when they developed Superman's familiar costume. They occasionally claimed to have developed it immediately in 1933, but Daniels, 1998 writes: "… usually [Shuster] and Siegel agreed that no special costume was in evidence [in 1933], and the surviving artwork bears them out." The cover art for their 1933 proposal to Humor Publishing shows a shirtless, cape-less Superman. Siegel's collaboration with Russell Keaton in 1934 contains no description or illustration of Superman in costume. Tye, 2012 writes that Siegel and Shuster developed the costume shortly after they resumed working together. In an interview with Andrae, 1983, Siegel said:

"NEMO: When you first conceived Superman, did you have the dual-identity theme in mind? Siegel: That occurred to me in late 1934, when I decided that I'd like to do Superman as a newspaper strip. I approached Joe about it, and he was enthusiastic about the possibility. I was up late one night, and more and more ideas kept coming to me, and I kept writing out several weeks of syndicate strips for the proposed newspaper strip. When morning came, I had written several weeks of material, and I dashed over to Joe's place and showed it to him. (This was the story that appeared in Action Comics #1, June, 1938, the first published appearance of Superman.) […] Of course, Joe had worked on that earlier version of Superman, and when I came to him with this new version of it, he was immediately sold." Daniels, Les. Superman: The Complete History (1st).

Ricca, 2014: "The facts are that it was Harry [Donenfeld] who signed [Siegel and Shuster], at Gaines's direction, and when McClure sold the Superman strip to the newspapers, McClure bought the rights from Harry, not the boys. It was then Donenfeld who not only now owned the property, but received the lion's share of the profits; whatever Jerry and Joe got was parsed out by him." Ricca, Brad.

Tye, 2012: "Vendors had sold 130,000 comic books, or 64 percent of the print run. Anything over 50 percent constituted a success and guaranteed a profit. […] Sales, meanwhile, continued to climb—to 136,000 for the second issue, 159,000 for the third, 190,000 for the fourth, and 197,000 for the fifth. Action No. 13, released on the first anniversary of the original, offered up 415,000 reasons to celebrate. National printed 725,000 copies of Action No. 16 and sold 625,000—an unheard-of success rate of 86 percent." Tye, Larry. Superman: The High-Flying History of America's Most Enduring Hero. Random House New York. 2012. ISBN 978-1-58836-918-5.
Tye, 2012: "…readers were asked to list in order of preference their five favorite stories. […] 404 of 542 respondents named Superman as tops, with 59 more listing him second. Tye, Larry. Superman: The High-Flying History of America's Most Enduring Hero. Random House New York. 2012. ISBN 978-1-58836-918-5.
Tye, 2012: "Journalists, along with most of their readers and viewers, didn’t understand that heroes regularly perished in the comics and almost never stayed dead." Tye, Larry. Superman: The High-Flying History of America's Most Enduring Hero. Random House New York. 2012. ISBN 978-1-58836-918-5.
Tye, 2012: "Superman 75, the death issue, tallied the biggest one-day sale ever for a comic book, with more than six million copies printed." Tye, Larry. Superman: The High-Flying History of America's Most Enduring Hero. Random House New York. 2012. ISBN 978-1-58836-918-5.
Tye, 2012: "The remaining audience [by 2011] was dedicated to the point of fanaticism, a trend that was self-reinforcing. No longer did casual readers pick up a comic at the drugstore or grocery, both because the books increasingly required an insider’s knowledge to follow the action and because they simply weren’t being sold anymore at markets, pharmacies, or even the few newsstands that were left. […] Comic books had gone from being a cultural emblem to a countercultural refuge." Tye, Larry. Superman: The High-Flying History of America's Most Enduring Hero. Random House New York. 2012. ISBN 978-1-58836-918-5.
Tye, 2012: "Initially Harry [Donenfeld], Jack [Liebowitz], and the managers they hired to oversee their growing editorial empire had let Jerry [Siegel] do as he wished with the character…" Tye, Larry. Superman: The High-Flying History of America's Most Enduring Hero. Random House New York. 2012. ISBN 978-1-58836-918-5.
Tye, 2012: "Neither Harry [Donenfeld] nor Jack [Liebowitz] had planned for a separate Superman comic book, or for that to be ongoing. Having Superman's story play out across different venues presented a challenge for Jerry [Siegel] and the writers who came after him: Each installment needed to seem original yet part of a whole, stylistically and narratively. Their solution, at the beginning, was to wing it…" Tye, Larry. Superman: The High-Flying History of America's Most Enduring Hero. Random House New York. 2012. ISBN 978-1-58836-918-5.
Tye, 2012: "Once Superman became big business, however, plots had to be sent to New York for vetting. Not only did editors tell Jerry to cut out the guns and knives and cut back on social crusading, they started calling the shots on minute details of script and drawing." Tye, Larry. Superman: The High-Flying History of America's Most Enduring Hero. Random House New York. 2012. ISBN 978-1-58836-918-5.
Tye, 2012: "No hint of sex. No alienating parents or teachers. Evil geniuses like the Ultra-Humanite were too otherworldly to give kids nightmares."

[…]

"The Prankster, the Toyman, the Puzzler, and J. Wilbur Wolngham, a W. C. Fields lookalike, used tricks and gags instead of a bow and arrows in their bids to conquer Superman. For editors wary of controversy, 1940s villains like those were a way to avoid the sharp edges of the real world." Tye, Larry. Superman: The High-Flying History of America's Most Enduring Hero. Random House New York. 2012. ISBN 978-1-58836-918-5.
Tye, 2012: "Before Mort came along, Superman’s world was ad hoc and seat-of-the-pants, with Jerry and other writers adding elements as they went along without any planning or anyone worrying whether it all hung together. That worked fine when all the books centered around Superman and all the writing was done by a small stable. Now the pool of writers had grown and there were eight different comic books with hundreds of Superman stories a year to worry about." Tye, Larry. Superman: The High-Flying History of America's Most Enduring Hero. Random House New York. 2012. ISBN 978-1-58836-918-5.
Tye, 2012: "But Weisinger’s innovations were taking a quiet toll on the story. Superman’s world had become so complicated that readers needed a map or even an encyclopedia to keep track of everyone and everything. (There would eventually be encyclopedias, two in fact, but the first did not appear until 1978.) All the plot complications were beguiling to devoted readers, who loved the challenge of keeping current, but to more casual fans they could be exhausting." Tye, Larry. Superman: The High-Flying History of America's Most Enduring Hero. Random House New York. 2012. ISBN 978-1-58836-918-5.
Tye, 2012: "Weisinger stories steered clear of the Vietnam War, the sexual revolution, the black power movement, and other issues that red the 1960s. There was none of what Mort would have called "touchy-feely" either, much as readers might have liked to know how Clark felt about his split personality, or whether Superman and Lois engaged in the battles between the sexes that were a hallmark of the era. Mort wanted his comics to be a haven for young readers, and he knew his right-leaning politics wouldn’t sit well with his leftist writers and many of his Superman fans." Tye, Larry. Superman: The High-Flying History of America's Most Enduring Hero. Random House New York. 2012. ISBN 978-1-58836-918-5.
Tye, 2012: "It did work. In 1960, the first year in which sales data was made public, Superman was selling more comic books than any other title or character, and he stayed on top through much of the decade. The Man of Steel was at the front of a charge that saw superheroes taking over from western and romance-themed comics. Some of that was a dividend from an easing of the comics scare and other, broader forces, but Weisinger’s reinventions were key ingredients in Superman’s comeback. "Mort kept it alive," says Carmine Infantino, a National Comics artist who would rise to editorial director, then publisher. "He was a damn good editor. Damn good."" Tye, Larry.

"If Lois should ACTUALLY learn Clark's secret, the strip would lose about 75% of its appeal—the human interest angle. I know that a formula can possibly prove monotonous through repetition but I fear that if this element is removed from the story formula that makes up SUPERMAN, that this strip will lose a great part of its effectiveness."

Ricca, 2014. səh. 92, says, "It was the night of Sunday, June 18, 1933". Siegel says only "early 1933" Andrae, 1983. Other sources, including court records, list the year as 1934. Ricca, Brad. Super Boys: The Amazing Adventures of Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster – the Creators of Superman. St. Martin's Griffin. 2014. ISBN 978-1250049681. Andrae, Thomas. "Of Supermen and Kids with Dreams". Nemo: The Classic Comics Library (2). Gary G. Groth. August 1983. 6–19.
Andrae, 1983, Siegel is quoted as saying: "Obviously, having him a hero would be infinitely more commercial than having him a villain. I understand that the comic strip Dr. Fu Manchu ran into all sorts of difficulties because the main character was a villain. And with the example before us of Tarzan and other action heroes of fiction who were very successful, mainly because people admired them and looked up to them, it seemed the sensible thing to do to make The Superman a hero. The first piece was a short story, and that's one thing; but creating a successful comic strip with a character you'll hope will continue for many years, it would definitely be going in the wrong direction to make him a villain." Andrae, Thomas. "Of Supermen and Kids with Dreams". Nemo: The Classic Comics Library (2). Gary G. Groth. August 1983. 6–19.
Andrae, 1983, Shuster is quoted as saying: "It wasn't really Superman: that was before he evolved into a costumed figure. He was simply wearing a T-shirt and pants…" Andrae, Thomas. "Of Supermen and Kids with Dreams". Nemo: The Classic Comics Library (2). Gary G. Groth. August 1983. 6–19.
In an interview with Andrae, 1983, Shuster said he destroyed their 1933 Superman comic as a reaction to Humor Publishing's rejection letter, which contradicts Siegel's account in Siegel's unpublished memoir. Tye, 2012 argues that the account from the memoir is the truth, and that Shuster lied in the interview to avoid tension. Andrae, Thomas. "Of Supermen and Kids with Dreams". Nemo: The Classic Comics Library (2). Gary G. Groth. August 1983. 6–19. Tye, Larry. Superman: The High-Flying History of America's Most Enduring Hero. Random House New York. 2012. ISBN 978-1-58836-918-5.
Over the years, Siegel and Shuster made contradictory statements regarding when they developed Superman's familiar costume. They occasionally claimed to have developed it immediately in 1933, but Daniels, 1998 writes: "… usually [Shuster] and Siegel agreed that no special costume was in evidence [in 1933], and the surviving artwork bears them out." The cover art for their 1933 proposal to Humor Publishing shows a shirtless, cape-less Superman. Siegel's collaboration with Russell Keaton in 1934 contains no description or illustration of Superman in costume. Tye, 2012 writes that Siegel and Shuster developed the costume shortly after they resumed working together. In an interview with Andrae, 1983, Siegel said:

"NEMO: When you first conceived Superman, did you have the dual-identity theme in mind? Siegel: That occurred to me in late 1934, when I decided that I'd like to do Superman as a newspaper strip. I approached Joe about it, and he was enthusiastic about the possibility. I was up late one night, and more and more ideas kept coming to me, and I kept writing out several weeks of syndicate strips for the proposed newspaper strip. When morning came, I had written several weeks of material, and I dashed over to Joe's place and showed it to him. (This was the story that appeared in Action Comics #1, June, 1938, the first published appearance of Superman.) […] Of course, Joe had worked on that earlier version of Superman, and when I came to him with this new version of it, he was immediately sold." Daniels, Les. Superman: The Complete History (1st). Titan Books. 1998. ISBN 1-85286-988-7. Tye, Larry. Superman: The High-Flying History of America's Most Enduring Hero. Random House New York. 2012. ISBN 978-1-58836-918-5. Andrae, Thomas.

Andrae, 1983: "…when I did the version in 1934, (which years later, in 1938, was published, in revised form, in Action Comics #1) the John Carter stories did influence me. Carter was able to leap great distances because the planet Mars was smaller that [sic] the planet Earth; and he had great strength. I visualized the planet Krypton as a huge planet, much larger than Earth; so whoever came to Earth from that planet would be able to leap great distances and lift great weights." Andrae, Thomas.

Andrae, 1983 Andrae, Thomas. "Of Supermen and Kids with Dreams". Nemo: The Classic Comics Library (2). Gary G. Groth. August 1983. 6–19.
Andrae, 1983: "… I was inspired by the movies. In the silent films, my hero was Douglas Fairbanks Senior, who was very agile and athletic. So I think he might have been an inspiration to us, even in his attitude. He had a stance which I often used in drawing Superman. You'll see in many of his roles—including Robin Hood—that he always stood with his hands on his hips and his feet spread apart, laughing—taking nothing seriously." Andrae, Thomas. "Of Supermen and Kids with Dreams". Nemo: The Classic Comics Library (2). Gary G. Groth. August 1983. 6–19.
Andrae, 1983: Siegel: "As a high school student, I thought that some day I might become a reporter, and I had crushes on several attractive girls who either didn't know I existed or didn't care I existed. […] It occurred to me: What if I was real terrific? What if I had something special going for me, like jumping over buildings or throwing cars around or something like that? Then maybe they would notice me." Andrae, Thomas. "Of Supermen and Kids with Dreams". Nemo: The Classic Comics Library (2). Gary G. Groth. August 1983. 6–19.
Andrae, 1983: "I also had classical heroes and strongmen in mind, and this shows in the footwear. In the third version Superman wore sandals laced halfway up the calf. You can still see this on the cover of Action #1, though they were covered over in red to look like boots when the comic was printed." Andrae, Thomas. "Of Supermen and Kids with Dreams".
