Best Answer

The word 'superhero' is merely a 'modernism' for what has historically been simply termed, "comic book heroes".

As such, a crime-fighting adventurer does not have to literally have some "super" power to fit into the crime-fighting adventurer mould. This means that comic strips, such as Flash Gordon, The Phantom and 'Mandrake the Magician' existed well before Superman, for instance.

Superman (1938), on the other hand, is called the "prototypical superhero" possessing or acquiring paranormal or parahuman powers, which makes him the first of the superheroes.
