During the 1940's there was a boom in the number of comics and superheroes. The success of Superman caused a number of companies to jump on the band-wagon and create their own crimefighting heroes, and then when America joined the War there was clearly perceived to be a need for patriotic heroes fighting the evil Axis force
Historical - superheroes become more popular during the war, as it indicated they needed to be saved, also showing unity within America.
Similar to Heroes, during the election, when Nathan Petrelli is running for congress, shows a very patriotic ideology.
