Gladiator by Philip Wylie served Siegel and Shuster with narrative inspiration for their creation of the Man of Steel.
Readers of today will recognize the genesis of Clark Kent in the character of Hugo Danner, immediately. A small town boy imbued with superhuman powers by his scientist father, Hugo longed for a life of importance where he could demonstrate his unique abilities without the fear of being discovered or accused of being an abomination created by forbidden science.
