The Untold Story of Superman’s Commercial Takeover for Just $130 #shorts #shortvideo #hollywood #hollywoodhistory #hollywoodmovies

🦸‍♂️ SHOCKING: The creators of Superman sold their idea for just $130 and died broke while DC Comics made BILLIONS! This isn't just another superhero story - it's one of entertainment's biggest betrayals.
Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster were just teenagers when they created Superman in 1930s Cleveland. After years of rejection, they finally sold their 13-page story to DC Comics for $130. But the contract had a devastating clause: DC owned ALL rights to Superman forever.
While Superman became a global phenomenon earning billions through comics, movies, TV shows, and merchandise, the creators watched from the sidelines, struggling to pay rent. It took decades of legal battles before they received any recognition.
