yeah, the whole origin of how Superman came to be the first super hero is fascinating. I know a lot of creators take into account personal experiences when writing and/or drawing their stories just like regular filmmakers or authors do.
One very good example is The Crow, which was written by a guy who was dealing with the death of his fiancee who died in an auto accident. I've seen the guy, James O'Barr talk about it in person and there's no doubt it was more therapeutic than creative but ended up as so.
Neat article CP - "Best article EVER!" says comic book guy.
