Up, Up, and Oy Vey! How Jewish History, Culture, and Values Shaped the Comic Book Superhero by Simcha Weinstein
I liked it. An intriguing look at the origins of superheroes, most of whom were created by Jewish artists and writers, and how that informed their work.
New comic sensibility with Jewish reference
