Paper: You can get special drawing paper from
art supply and hobby stores. But any type of blank,
unlined paper will work fine.
Pencils: Drawings should always be done in
pencil first. Even the pros use them. If you make
a mistake, itll be easy to erase and redo it. Keep
plenty of these essential drawing tools on hand.
Pencil Sharpener: To make clean lines,
you need to keep your pencils sharp. Get a good
pencil sharpener. Youll use it a lot.
Erasers: As you draw, youre sure to make
mistakes. Erasers give artists the power to turn
back time and erase those mistakes. Get some high
quality rubber or kneaded erasers. Theyll last a lot
longer than pencil erasers.
Marker Pens: When your drawing is ready,
trace over the final lines with black marker pen.
The dark lines will help make your characters stand
out on the page.
Colored Pencils and Markers:
Ready to finish your masterpiece? Bring your
characters to life and give them some color with
colored pencils or markers.

heroes and sinister villains. But youll need
some basic tools. Gather the following supplies
before starting your awesome art.

up there. His parents, Jor-El and Lara Lor-Van, knew that Krypton was about
to be destroyed. To save their baby son, they sent him to Earth in a special
spacecraft. When young Kal landed near Smallville, Kansas , he was found by
Jonathan and Martha Kent. The loving couple named him Clark and raised him
as their own son.

sun gave him powers such as super-strength and speed, heat vision, flight, and

and protect its people. He became Superman, the Man of Steel!

Powered by the suns yellow light, there
is almost no limit to Supermans strength.
Even the strongest chains ever created
would be no match for his mighty muscles.
However, the Man of Steel is powerless
against Kryptonite. This radioactive material
robs him of his super-strength and other
powers. Supermans powers are also useless
against magical attacks.

of Steel picking up a plane,
train, or other heavy vehicle!
