In Ten Steps to Flying Like a Superhero, Lava Boy teaches his superhero action figure, Captain Magma, how to fly in Deb Pilutti's soaring picture book companion to Ten Rules for Being a Superhero. Lava Boy and his favorite toy, Captain Magma, have saved the day many times. But there’s one superhero skill they haven’t mastered yet: the ability to fly. It shouldn’t be too hard for Captain Magma and Lava Boy to figure out. But it’s going to take a new set of rules and some help from the brave Star Girl (and her action figure, Meteor Shower) before these superheroes actually reach new heights. This clever gender inclusive story takes young readers on an adventure—learning lessons in friendship and how to fly like a superhero. Christy Ottaviano Books

The iconography and mythology they created flourishes to this day in comic books, video, movies, fine art, advertising, and practically all other media. Supermen! collects the best and the brightest of this first generation, including Jack Cole, Will Eisner, Bill Everett, Lou Fine, Fletcher Hanks, Jack Kirby, Jerry Siegel, Joe Shuster, and Basil Wolverton.
