2006, the court decided in the Siegel family’s favor regarding ownership of the Superboy character. As of 2007, there had yet to be a family settlement with DC on Superman. After the success of the first Superman movie, Warner Communications put “Created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster” on the credits of every following Superman movie.
