Greg Pak's Action comics run during the new 52 was one of the few bright spots in an otherwise failed 52 reboot.
I loved the way Pak wrote the N52 Clark as a highly intelligent individual (something that most writers tend to ignore) who sometimes does rash things because his compassion is so great that it can even overwhelm his great intellect. As opposed to most other writers at the time who just wrote the N52 Clark as a rash, moody guy because he's "young and hip" and that's what young and hip people do.
I would love to see Greg Pak write more Superman without being bogged down by cross-overs with Superman, Superman/wonder woman and Batman-Superman. The same goes for the other Greg (Rucka) who had end his run prematurely because of all the infinite crisis nonsense.

I like how nerds still ***** about the nipples and say almost nothing about the perfectly sculpted voluminous asses on the Schumacher suits.

I hate how they dialled up the fake muscles on the BvS / JL suit, it always looked so rigid and unnatural, and seeing it in the daylight just highlights it more.

MoS suit was superior in every way, even if the colours were a bit more muted.

Da **** is the point in the actors bulking and putting on all that real muscle, when you put those things over the top. I get you need definition through the material, but there's got to be a better balance.

The one in Forever even had a zipper.

 

[Boom]

Chris reeve had almost zero padding with a relative cheap suit ( compared to today's hero suits ) and it still holds up.
In this case, less is more ( on the padding )

De Vito's in Returns was just a rip.

Yeah, it looks like he has metal plating all over his costume like Captain Power or something. Talk about taking a good costume design and totally ruining it.

"alright everyone, if the costume scenes in Batman & Robin led to your sexual awakening, please raise your hand"

Greg Pak’s Action Comics run from the new 52. This arc/trade is called “What Lies Beneath.” Wonderful story, and highly underrated run imo, probably because he was following Grant Morrison’s instantly iconic run. But he had another arc in there called “Under the Skin” that was not only a good “spooky” Smallville story, but it had a very cool take on the Ultra-Humanite imo. I agree with @Superchan that it’s really unfortunate the later part of his run got bogged down by forced crossovers with the inferior main Superman title, because he was cooking.

Sawyer ruined many VHS tapes replaying this again and again.

Hot Take: Padding a Superman suit is the dumbest thing in the world.

Never understood why Barry's suit was so terrible and why Superman's suit has the puzzle pads from TDK.

Always thought Supes looked like Adam Baldwin in these shots.

I wish that were the case. I only started to get a vague sense that something was up when I saw Colin Farrell in Daredevil and that’s far more embarrassing.

Everybody was doing this in the 90’s

By and large, I’m not a fan of most New 52 Superman, but I do have a soft spot for Gene Luen Yang’s short run on Superman. Yang knows how to bring the fun back into comics and he especially is talented at writing Superman.
