The powers are exactly the same. I've read essays that compare the two and one of the most striking arguments is that even if Superman was based on "John Carter of Mars", who was super strong and could leap long distances because of Mar's lesser gravity, where did the concept of Superman's invincibility come from. Not even Arn Munro from the "Mightiest Machine" was invincible. Not only was Danner strong and fast, he was also invincible with a reported "greater density" than normal humans. So, no, Superman is not Hanuman (who is still a kick ass Hindu figure).</p> <p>Here is one that might throw you guys for a loop. The original Superman did <b>not</b> fly! He didn't fly until 1941, 7 years after he was initially created and 3 years after his first appearance in print. An interview with the original animators of the 1940's Superman Cartoon revealed they requested DC Comics give him the power of flight because it was difficult to animate him constantly leaping from place to place.</p> I just finished reading Philip Wylie’s 1930 novel “Gladiator” and, knowing of Superman’s early powers, I believe Kal-El is nothing but Hugo Danner with a red cape!

No archeological, biological or evolutionary evidence supports the existence of any such being. It is possible that Rama and his brother ran into some wild monkeys while looking for their princess and got fascinated by them. Maybe they were a different species of monkeys than what these folks had seen before. Of course this is assuming that Rama and the whole story was real. The story in its stripped down version seems plausible, but all the extra mythical stuff added to it like the flying monkey gods etc. are pure fiction. Conservative hindoos to me seem very similar to the Bible thumping christians who think God literally made this whole cosmos in 7 days and refuse to listen to any logic. There is a need to not take the religious books literally and think in a scientific manner.</p> Hanuman, like most of Hindu religious charachters is a creation of fiction and imagination.
