I hope there's a purpose for that belt.

Itd be ok if they kept the belt yellow and the texture didn't seem so much like an armor.

That looks pretty cool, glad they ditched the panties.
It'd be awesome if Snyder's Superman has a similar suit.

Every time I see Cavill he looks more and more like the John Byrne's Man of Steel so I'm hoping for the classic look for the movie.

isn't one of the factors of superman's outfit that it's supposed to be conceiled under his normal clothing? How does he hide the boots, armor, and such?

is that armor ? why does superman need armor ?

this suit looks like shit.

why does everyone think it looks like armor? i don't see it. there's no reflection or anything to show that its hardened. it just looks like a suit...

Yeah I hate the belt the most. If they took away the red underwear, why leave the belt?

Needs more yellow. the knee pads over all have me fried. Brings to mind the famous quote by ZOD if this sticks. Just make his blue undies red again and change the belt to yellow as it should be and ill accept the rest,,,,yes even the knee pads....

i mean he looks like a freaking xmen.

i like it! especially if it is armor... but i'd like a yellow belt buckle...

Whats the point of giving him an underwear line? Also, whats the point of having the diamond shape on his belt without it having the "S" on it? The suit in Superman Returns had it.

I LIKE IT!!! just the artwork on the face looks a bit odd

Looks rubbish, surely it wouldn't take too much just to make the classic suit a little more updated without making wholesale changes to it. Is he planning on spending a lot of time on his knees hence the pads?

Looks more like one of Luthor's clones. I know they want to get rid of the red panties, but did they have to add so many lines to the rest of the suit to make that happen? And OMG! Where did those outdated robo-boots come from?

Anyway, if you look closely, it looks as if he's still wearing the panties, but with the blue color.

i'm 99% sure this is fan art. first i saw this on the boards of superherohype, and then i found it on deviant art by the person who created it. i wonder how close he is to the comics. i think it looks pretty good but still don't like the collar.

@TABOO13 & Arminies

thanks...im sure anyone with a better program to render it would have done much better but at least this looks like superman.

FAIL. And the art sucks culo. They're tryna make Supes have the Arkham Asylum/City design Batman has. Yet Supes IS his own armor. How retarded...

I honestly don't mind the look, but I do think it looks a bit clunky it needs to be more smooth maybe. I guess we'll have to wait and see how they explain the costume change and everything else. Wonder if we'll get another take on the origin for supes

It's fake it seems. Chappy on deviantart made it.

it's funny. I read all the "experts" and their comments. You can never make someone happy.

Like the old one better.

The costume is immaterial – just make the character relevant to 2011+ I’m sick to the back teeth of the origin/Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen, Perry White, Lex Luthor circus of endless clichés. We need NEW blood in the writing pen

The lines just seem pointless, but that boot and knee is what really bother me. They could just clean up the old one and it would be better.

They did that style to wolverine sometime ago and I also thought it seemed stupid.

Ehhhhhh.. The distinct separations in the suit to his arms and legs from his torso just makes him look like a life-size action figure. Fail I.M.O. The NO PANTIES might work though. MIGHT

I wouldn't hate it if they didn't put so many stupid lines and make it look like a suit of armor. This is just fcking stupid!

he's the [frick]ing man of steel, why in the hell does he need an armor suit?

also, what is this popped collar crap on all the new envisionings of the male characters? what is this 1987?
