Revolution in San Monte was a story published in Action Comics #2, by DC Comics (then known as National) sometime in July 1938 and written and drawn by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. It's the second story to feature Superman and it continues where the story in the previous issue left off.Superman learns from the now-terrified lobbyist that the person behind starting a war is Emil Norvell, well-known munitions magnate. The Champion of the Oppressed decides to teach Norvell a lesson by sneaking into his apartment and, after taking care of his hired goons, threatens him to take a trip to San Monte on the steamer Baronta. The next day, Clark Kent decides to follow Norvell to San Monte, but is surprised to see Lois Lane coming aboard as well. Other guests on the Baronta include mystery woman Lola Cortez and a gang of wannabe paid mercenaries. Once the passengers reach their destination, the adventure is only getting started...This story was reprinted in Superman #1 a year later. | |

Karmic Butt-Monkey: Emil Norvell goes through a lot throughout the entire story, thanks to Superman. One would feel for the guy if not for the fact he's a greedy, backstabbing, cowardly weapons-maker who wants to instigate war just to make more money. | |

Corrupt Corporate Executive: Emil Norvell is a greedy and cowardly munitions manufacturer who plans on starting a war in San Monte, which would lead into an even bigger war, just to purchase off of making and selling weapons. Superman makes him see the error of his ways by forcing him to enlist in the San Monte army and make him experience how deadly and dangerous war truly is. | |
