that's what they say: that Superman was modeled after the story of Christ. by two Jewish boys, nonetheless. i guess that makes Kal-El Jewish, technically

Maybe that is why they had to digitally downplay Brendan Routh's package in the last Superman movie.

"El" is also a common suffix in angelic names (Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, etc.)

Not only two Jewish boys but one was a Canadian Jewish boy. It's no wonder Superman was the ultimate immigrant.

"man" is also a common suffix in Jewish names: Kaufman, Peterman, Superman... see?

Therefore Superman is a Jewish Canadian immigrant who moves to Metropolis and makes it big. That's why we all feel good about Superman.
