Anyone use this legend from history

For some reason I remembered the story of the Golem of Prague.   Anybody ever write that one up?

 

Obviously,  would be perfect for WW2 era supers (if not needing to tread lightly on certain RL WW2 elements)  Any other ideas for use?

 

 

Note: I probably do need re-read the tale, to freshen up my memory.

I referenced the legend in my "Fantasy Europa" Fantasy Hero campaign. Instead of Prague, though, the point where the campaign history openly diverges from real history is the siege of Toledo. A Jewish resident of the city creates a golem and sends it out to defeat El Cid -- a sufficiently spectacular feat of magic that gets a lot of people looking for the arcane lore of the ancient world, along with the math, law, medicine, and other scholarship.
