Superman is the world's greatest superhero, and law-enforcement across the globe has come to rely on the Man of Steel, but when his powers are almost eradicated he must overcome many obstacles to try and get those powers back, all whilst an evil mastermind plans to wreak havoc right in front of a fallen Superman's eyes.

This story takes place in the Donner-Reeve universe, and loosely follows on from the events of Superman (1978), Superman II (1980), and Superman Returns (2006), and is set approximately three years after the events of 'Returns'.







So what do you guys think about the suit and does this guy look like Clark kent/Superman?

Wow. Gay.

The people of metropolis have to be the dumbest people on earth. Why? how can they not tell that Clark Kent is super man? I mean really...is secret identity is concealed by a pair of geek glasses.

But the man does get pussy so i guess he's alright

This is so absolutely terrible, no amount of CGI can fix that. Fan film or not, how hard is it to find a tall pretty boy wannabe actor to play Clark Kent, not this Ogre. I can't believe they would actually put out an interview for this that said,"When we met Martin Richardson, we knew he was Clark Kent". I hope Warner Bros sends them a cease and desist, this can only ruin Superman for a lot of people before The Man of Steel comes out.

All you Routh haters, please direct your attention skywards and see the atrocity that is Martin Richardson. I have seen homemade Halloween costumes that look way better than this. And, do you think Martin has ever been on the inside of a gym or does he just drive up and watch chicks run on the treadmills from his car while he eats sausage mcmuffins? Jeeesh.

@superman78- Yeah I see your anger, this looks [frick]ing stupid and disgraceful. But you gotta remember, this is ONLY a fan-film. Routh was in a BIG BUDGET failure...making Superman look stupid worldwide. That is faaaar worse.

But between "Stalkerman Returns" showing us a weak, pathetic and boring Superman...he never even threw an f'n punch..."Waterville" showing us a Clark who never actually BECAME Superman and this crap...it's no wonder people can't take Supes seriously.

Oh and this actor looks like utter shit. Too skinny and creepy-looking from the face.

He seriously looks like the local child-molester.

I can just hear him now....."Thith lookth like a job for STHUPERMAN!!!" He looks like a pederast crossed with one of those guys who hangs out by Universal Studios, trying to get money for pictures.

Lord Loki has spoken

This is exactly why some of you out there are hating Supes original threads. Because of horrors like this! Just because this was bad, doesn't mean to count out the classic.
