| dbo:abstract | Iron Munro, real name Arn Munro, is a superhero character appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. Roy Thomas created the character in 1987 for Young All-Stars. He largely served to replace Superman in stories set during World War II after the Crisis on Infinite Earths storyline eliminated continuities in which Superman was active in this period. After DC cancelled Thomas' World War II-set comic All-Star Squadron in the wake of Crisis on Infinite Earths, the company charged him with writing a follow-up series with a new superhero team, Young All-Stars. Iron Munro was one of several new characters Thomas created as analogues for popular superheroes written out of the continuity; he stood in for Superman, with comparable powers and appearance. He was inspired by two 1930s pulp fiction characters who in turn prefigured Superman: John W. Campbell's science fiction hero Aarn Munro, who appeared in comics as "Iron Munro", and Hugo Danner, the protagonist of Philip Wylie's 1930 novel Gladiator, who had powers similar to Superman's and is sometimes seen as an inspiration. Young All-Stars did not achieve the popularity of All-Star Squadron, which had featured better known characters from the Golden Age of Comic Books. The series was cancelled in 1989. Iron Munro continued to make occasional appearances in DC Comics. (en) Iron Munro è un personaggio dei fumetti dell'Universo DC comics.

Tuttavia, Iron Munro non fu descritto, né gli venne concesso un ruolo nel romanzo originale. L'inabilità di Hugo di passare i suoi poteri ai figli fu spiegata dal suo padre scienziato, «l'effetto del processo non verrà ereditato dalle future generazioni».

Ele serviu em grande parte como substituto do Superman em histórias estabelecidas durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial após o evento Crise nas Infinitas Terras, que havia eliminado aparições do Superman nesse período. Ele foi inspirado por dois personagens da literatura pulp da década de 1930 que, por sua vez, prefiguraram Superman: o herói do romance de ficção científica The Mightiest Machine de de John W. Campbell, Aarn Munro, que nos quadrinhos era chamado de "Iron Munro" e Hugo Danner, o protagonista do romance Gladiator de Philip Wylie, que possuía poderes similares ao Superman e às vezes é visto como uma inspiração. Em uma assentimento à dívida de Superman a Gladiator, Thomas fez Iron Munro ser o filho de Hugo Danner. (pt) |
