Adventures of Superman SSSR



Have you ever wondered what would happen, whether communist superman? The answer was provided a well-known British comic book author Mark Millar comic book in his "Superman: Red Son».

Total this superhero was written three editions, published by «DC Comics» in the year 2003 and became a real gem among the comics. The idea of ​​the Red Son came up with Millar, when he read fanfic about six years Superman. It was an imaginary story in which Superman's rocket landed in international waters between the United States and the USSR, and both sides claimed the child.





Millar, as a person growing up in the Cold War, the idea of ​​the Red Superman seemed amusing. After ten years of work in the field of comics, he was finally able to publish the "Superman: Red Son».

In the story, Superman actually landed in the Ukraine, but not in Kansas. He was raised as a proud Soviet man, whose communist ideals taught to love and serve him, but he remained the same compassionate, fair, courageous and fearless superhero who loves humanity more than anything else. He still has his supersluh and he responds to any call for help, and the beloved "habit" is still saving lives.





Despite the similarities between the characters, there are significant differences that can not be overlooked. For example, he did not become a journalist, and a career high-ranking KGB officer. His personality - not just his personal secret is a state secret, and it helps to hide the identity of the government. His suit is not the symbol of Superman instead painted on it the coat of arms of the Soviet Union - the hammer and sickle.





Superman fights for "truth, justice and the American dream" and becomes the ideal "ordinary worker who fought for Stalin, socialism and the international recognition of the Warsaw Pact." At one point, Red Son becomes the undisputed leader of the Soviet Union, and then the whole world.
