Without a doubt Shannon looks to be the baddest ass as far as CBM villains, that we have seen so far. I have to say as much as I have liked the portrayals of George Reeves and Chris Reeve as Superman, the two best IMHO.Cavill seems to really embody Superman and looks like the one who all others will be compared to.

He was born to do a lot of things, playing Superman is just a perk.
