UPDATED: Smallville Super Suit a Fake!

The visual of that rumored Smallville super suit, has turned out to be a fan rendition.

CBM scooper "Samboy" sent us in yesterday what he said was a flyer being handed out at comic-con of the Smallville Superman suit. Well, thanks to another CBM reader, we've gotten more information on it. Turns out this ain't even close to official...

Hey guys. Just wanted to leave you with some info about the Smallville supersuit you are showing.

I am the original creator of that image. Somebody has taken my design, slapped their name and some text that makes it look real, and passed it off as real. The sad thing is that I didn't even draw the body to begin with! Over in a thread at Super hero hype, a bunch of us were wondering what the suit might look like based off descriptions we heard, and I simply colored in my design over a Gary Frank Superman drawing. I even did 3 different versions according to the feedback I got on the height of the collar. I would be more than happy to send the original files as proof, as the one you have seems printed out and scanned, further adding to it's shodiness, or believability depending who's story is believed.

Again, not blaming you for believing it or anything, but that is my FAN IDEA SPECULATION design, just wondering what the smallville team has cooked up.

Here's the superherohype.com thread where I posted this and 2 other variations on the design, along with many other people's guesses at what the suit may look like :

http://forums.superherohype.com/showthread.php?t=325503&page=6

It's about 2/3 down the page, with the other designs on the next couple pages.

Just wanted to clear that up. Love your site!

Oh well, that is what you get for being trusting. People are just evil. Here's what it we THOUGHT it was going to look like anyway.

Sweet! I heard it's made entirely of leather. Hopefully they'll toss a gimp mask in there.

I think it looks cool. Gives a different twist to the man of steel.

is this even real, where did he get a sketch of the suit from!? im guessing that this might be fan made!

However, if its not - its ok i guess! it would have made more sense to just have the original suit but maybe this is their way of keeping Smallville seperate from the Superman movies. I would have liked a cape at least though! this suit might just end up looking a bit stupid in reality.

It would be better if they spent more time finding better writers rather than a lame Smallville version of theSuperman costume!!

Capes get old after awhile. Its nice to see something new.

yeah, it's modern, yay *yawn*....why do we feel the need to modernize everything? 50 years of Americana, a 50 years I might add that has never been without Superman, should prove something about his staying power and the red and blue tights.

It's a fact that his black and white suit was sold down the river quick, and the attempt by Brian Singer to rewrite it with his laser-etched costume brought a huge fan blow-back, but this? This is too much. So much for Martha presenting the suit to him. So much even for Christopher Reeves donning it from the Fortress of Solitude. Let's just throw out the whole story line and rewrite history. He got a form-fitting leather outfit that he made in Smallville, yea, that's the way it should be now.....Who cares about the past anyway, that's for our granddads, isn't it?

captainamerica@ I noticed that. good catch lol

Supermike@ Your a asshole!!!!

I like the new suit. Just think about every other comic book person who has had a change in costume. It will come over time and honestly i think superman is long over do for a change.

I keep expecting the Robinsons to pop up at any moment! This looks like Smallville meets lost in space. Next, they'll have a micro-fibre cape unfold everytime he's flying...and, one point guys, where oh where is he supposed to stuff his clothes when he changes? I have an idea, but PULEASE>>>LOL.....In the comics he could at least supercompress them into a pocket in his cape....on this? Supercompress your buttcheeks maybe......

What a crock! I HATE Smallville! They have taken well known Superman FACTS and fcuked em up! And people actually love this crap? Am I the only one sane enough to boycott this show? I've watched quite a few episodes, and was like "what the hell is this?"...Then when I saw Lex Luthor I quit. And now this? Someone needs to spank these people and take their creative rights away for a long time, hell maybe even their birthdays while we're at it.

Exactly what I was looking for the show to do since it cant use the original suit.

looks like that fan made photoshot i posted up a while ago...

still ultra cool and fits the looks of the justice league from the show.


The more I look at it the more they can say its just like a normal suit from Krypton that he is wearing. like a sporting suit.

The original can be his earth styled suit (styled after earth vision of a hero).

Just my opinion of course, so all you Smallville wagon riders don't need to jump down my throat.

be careful WulfComicFan, I have learned on this site that opinions are like groceries, they'll get shoved down your throat. If you disagree with someone here, they are likely to buy publishing rights on the abuse they can shower on you. Oh well, everyone has their own style. By the way, I TOTALLY agree with you.

Okay what do you guys think, I tried to make it as close to the pic above. I dont know it looks like his suit sticks out to much, you would almost think it would be more leather like the others.

Looks like they took the suits from the Xmen films and recycled them with a new paint job.
