Did you know that Superman's original origin, as pitched to Flash Gordon artist Russell Keaton in 1935, was that of a time-traveling baby sent back from the future just as Earth exploded?
Me neither, at least until reading this letter from Superman creator Jerome Seigel.
Imagine how different the Superman mythos (and our culture today) would be if Superman's origin hadn't been as an alien from Krypton?
Fascinating.
