"Sarlac"

The Sarlacc is not a worm.

THE NEW SUPERMAN LOOKS LIKE ULTRAMAN

So all us Geeks n' Dorks have been talking about the new SUPERMAN costume in Zack Synder's upcoming Super-Attempt. I'll spare you all my thoughts on the, dark color scheme & lack of red pants...

...but I did want to post something about how the new costume not only looks like in-line with the new Jim Lee designed NuSuperman (New 52 Relaunch)... ...but it also looks like ULTRAMAN, the EVIL Superman from Earth-2:

Honestly, the new [comic] costume is growing on me... despite the fucking armor and lack of red pants... but hey, I've decided to roll with it (Stage 05: Acceptance).

I just find it odd that they'd reboot Superman for a new Generation, Century & Millennium in a costume that looks extremely similar to a pre-existing, psychotic, parallel world, evil Superman. Weird, kinda funny... and perhaps a bit telling.

I put together some more comparisons between ULTRAMAN and the NuSUPERMAN:

I'm curious how the New Superman will be... he hasn't been that great these last 25 years, really (with a handful of exceptions)... so I'm open to some Super Change, I guess. As long as he's still true to the CORE OF SUPERMAN and the stories are GOOD. We'll find out soon enough....

Thankfully the DC Reboot is being handled by all the same creators who have been steering the DC Ship these last 10 years+ into a state... where... they felt a reboot... was necessary.... ah, crap.
