Have you ever wondered what Superman and Marilyn Monroe might have in common? This spirited true adventure shows how the birth of the comic book and the magic of movies intersected with the lives of WWII Jewish refugees and real-life heroes. The spark for these stories is Jules Schulback, grandfather of one of the authors, who snapped one of the century’s most iconic photographs of Marilyn Monroe.
