    Jordan, I appreciate seeing the birthplace of Superman. Hats off to the current owner of the house in continuing to pay homage to the super hero. Seeing the original illustration by Joe Shuster was a treat.

    I Loved Superman when I was a little girl.. My uncle told everyone, my children included, that when I was little swinging high in the swings, I looked at him and said, "Look Uncle Buddy, I'm Superman!".. Thank You, Jordan, for bringing back sweet memories!

    At 10:22, you have Joe Simone and Jack Kirby, the creators of Capt. America! They also did work for DC. The Boy Commandos is page on the table!

    As a kid in the 1950's, I looked forward to every new issue of the Superman comics. I remember friends with foot lockers filled with issues and we'd read through them over and over. Just plain good fun experiencing them.

    Very cool Superman Vlog Jordan! I was never into comics either, but started watching the Superman series growing up with George Reeves. I have seen all the Superman movies and Smallville. It was great and interesting seeing the humble beginnings of a "Super Hero". Loving the "Travel Vlogs". As always.... Thanks Jordan! Keep doing what you love!

    Pretty cool vlog! I grew up watching Superman on TV since I have an older brother who was into that. Like you I was never that into him until I saw Christopher Reeves in those tights!! Whoa! LOL! Hard to believe he and Margot Kidder are both gone. Christopher will always be my Superman. Some of those homes were beautiful in their prime and now are so hard to look at. So sad. Thanks for another great history lesson from Ohio!

    This was such a treat! Brought back many wonderful memories. I clearly remember watching Superman in the 1950's on the black and white TV set. We looked forward to seeing that every week. All went well until we tied on our capes and proceeded to try to fly off the high porch. As we were very small, even though it was only four feet up, the fall down came pretty hard. Didn't try that again. 😭😭😭

      @esthergarcia1373 2 роки тому

      @@esthergarcia1373 I took my uncle's huge black umbrella outside in a wind storm after hearing the story of Mary Poppins. I got in trouble when it turned inside out and was ruined. I was disappointed I couldn't fly in the air like she did. I think that was the last silly thing I did as a little girl. 😊

    I used to love Superman comics, and I never kept them because my mother was an anti-hoarder. If you look up kryptonite, you would discover there were many different colors of kryptonite. Those yellow things could be gold kryptonite which would have taken Superman's powers away permanently. Yikes. I sure enjoyed this vlog. Thanks, Jordan.

    What's very sad is that while this is a good piece you showed the worse houses in Cleveland. Right around the corner and in many of this great Glenville area are still homes that are beautiful. There are a lot of homeowners living in the Glenville area. The city of Cleveland have been tearing down homes by the hundreds in order to rebuild the city but again right around the corner were beautiful homes and streets full of beauty especially with Bratenahl's mansions less than 120 seconds down the street closer to the Lake and East Boulevard full of lovely majestic homes. I currently live in the neighborhood and my grandparents were one of the first black families to purchase a home on Kimberly in 1944. My mom went to school with a majority Jewish population so I have seen the beauty and the destruction and now the revitalization of this great area in Cleveland.

    Really loved this vlog, Jordan! I lived near Cleveland during the 70's and enjoyed your "Adventures of Cleveland landmarks". I believe a Max Fleischer "Superman" cartoon, "The Mechanical Monsters"(1941), was the first time Clark Kent went into a phone booth to change. The comics started showing this about a year later. Still iconic though. My first Superman exposure was the old George Reeves' "The Adventures of Superman". The "planet" storage room or an alley was often used for the "transformation". A very good vlog, Jordan!
