The Gospel According to Superman and Postmodern Theology
This is not about Judaism, per se, but it is about comic books and religion: a recent post on one of my favorite blogs, Killing the Buddha, about an old book called The Gospel According to Superman, with further reflections using some theory and postmodern theology. It's an interesting read and it mentions an essay by Umberto Eco that I've really got to get sometime.

To be completely honest I'm not sure if I quite understood that article. I did however like the analogy with how all of America's superheroes have pretty much been killed off and reborn in one way or another and how we lose interest and relating that to Jesus.
