It has been a long time in coming, but Superman creators Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster have been honored with a new plaza in Cleveland.
A new statue of the Man of Steel was unveiled yesterday in the plaza.
According to News 5 Cleveland:
In the city that brought him to life, Superman now stands tall in the center of Cleveland after months of anticipation.
On Saturday, community members, comic book fans, county leaders and members of the Siegel & Shuster Society gathered downtown to celebrate the unveiling of the new Superman statue and the newly named Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster Tribute Plaza, according to a spokesperson with Cuyahoga County.
The Man of Steel, quite literally made from stainless steel, sits in the plaza on an 18-foot pillar alongside bronze statues of Siegel, Shuster, and Joanne Siegel, who was the original model for Lois Lane, the county said.
