Superman was not born on Krypton, but in a small nondescript house in Cleveland Ohio. Inspired by Brad Meltzer, the Siegel and Shuster Society is working with OrdinaryPeopleChangeTheWorld to hold a Superman memorabilia auction with the benefits earmarked to restore and preserve the home where a teenaged Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster cooked up the Man of Steel in 1932. Its a nice gesture, I hope they have luck with it. I wish I could afford to bid on the Jason Palmer piece.

Here is some artwork that will be up for bid during the month of September. Auction items include artwork, rare t-shirts, a spot on the cover of the Brian Michael Bendis comic - Powers, tickets to the Colbert Report and a walk-on role on Heroes. Check the complete list of items up for auction.

Meltzer’s involvement ALMOST makes me want to take back the harsh things I said about Meltzer’s creation Dr. Impossible getting Action Figure immortalization when far more deserving characters are ignored. ALMOST.
