Writer and #Superman creator #JerrySiegel corresponded often with a #Chicago newspaper reporter and #ScienceFiction fan named Walter Dennis in 1930. Co-creator and artist #JoeSchuster used Dennis' likeness to create #ClarkKent, alter-ego of #Superman in the 1938 first issue of #ActionComics. (Per #DCcomics veteran #JuliusSchwartz.)
