What superheroes are there in the Jewish community, aside from the odd golem ("Hulk smash!")? (There was once an Indian version of Spider-Man.)

Since I'm free-associating in this comment, here's a very odd Jewish connection: on Swiss TV, years ago, I once saw a parody titled "Bite Man et Rabbin." "La bite" is French for "the dick," so the title was basically "Dick Man and Rabbi." The eponymous heroes ran around town doing good, with Rabbi often blessing the deeds of Dick Man, whose shirt showed a silhouette of, uh... King Richard, for lack of a better term.

On the golem-as-superhero note... have you, as a sci-fi fan, ever read the Jewish SF novel He, She, and It by Marge Piercy? I'm going to assume you have, but on the off-chance that you haven't, here's the Amazon link. It was a compelling read and, a bit like Neuromancer, ahead of its time in describing adventures in both robotics and cyberspace.
