Schenck, Ken. Superman: A Popular Culture Messiah. New York: Peter Lang, 2005. Print.
A Popular Culture Messiah goes into depth on the topic of the similarities between Superman and Jesus by analyzing the "eight Christic personalistic traits" and ultimately concludes that Superman is a replica of Jesus. Schenck covers Superman's divine paternity, earthly existence, divine naming, and divine calling among other things which prove the parallels shared between Superman and Jesus.
Great summary! But how will you use it?
