Whatever he fought shot the symbol...which is partially why it is there. (see also: Batman yellow oval)I think the thing that's throwing me off is Superman only looks dirty from the waist up. The legs, the boots... They're still clean for this most part.
And as far as him not looking heroic, the vibe I get from this pic is that we just caught him in the middle of getting dressed. Meanwhile, there's a WHOLE invasion going on outside.
So does Superman 💁♂️Pete should smile more.
I actually thought it was a manip too.One thing that's kind of throwing me off is the whole composition of the pic. When I stumbled upon it on Twitter, I thought it was a manip at first.
The thing that gets me is that it's perhaps misreading the general mood of the fans when they've been moaning and raging about a joyless Superman who's always moping...and your first suit reveal shows him to be looking a bit joyless and mopey lol.I think the thing that's throwing me off is Superman only looks dirty from the waist up.

Personally I like it so far. Not enamored with the collar or how the cape attaches, but otherwise I love it.
Hopefully everyone grows to love it with a change of perspective.

My favorite Spidey suit.It reminds me of Garfield's Spidey first pic, with him not in a heroic pose and looking tired/pissed off.

Wasn't it a few days ago (and most of the wait for the reveal) where people were saying they trust Gunn because his GOTG suits looked so good...now he gives you the Superman version of that and you are all lamenting that Gunn gave you a GOTG style suit? Never change DC fans! (note: I see in this in pretty much all fandom and as a DC centric fan myself I just see it more here)
Then again I am old enough to remember when all the fans loved every aspect of the Snyder Suits...until they hated the movies and all of a sudden the suits sucked too And the S&L suit was crapped on too until people liked the show. Same thing happened (in reverse) when MR revealed the Batman screen test suit and everyone talked about all the cliche things they didn't like (the ears, the symbol, how the cowl fit...etc) and then all of a sudden as soon as it came out it was amazing! Fanatics (fans) are by their very nature very reactionary.
I honestly didn't even notice the collar...it is just not that pronounced. Certainly not like in the Nu-52 when it went halfway to his ears. And I liked that it was battle tested as there was definite damage to it on the chest while the pants look much cleaner. And that cape is ginormous! And @Black Narcissus will be happy he isn't bald
But how about the fact that he apparently has an apartment in Metropolis...and something that is definitely not Lex Luthor is about to destroy it? I mean Gunn is giving you so much to feast on and you are missing it because of some lines on a suit no one will notice when he is moving. The only time I ever notice piping in action is when it is as noticeable as Black Panther. Still pictures just push that to the forefront more IMHO.
I friggin love it and will take it over the MOS suit (which I also still love) 10/10 times.
I absolutely hated it at first, but in the movie it looked great. It looks very different from the traditional comics suit, but it still maintains the core elements that identify Spider-man... just like Battinson and even TDK suit. Maybe that's the case with this, it has the very classic elements but still looks different and I'm sure in motion will look great. Well, I hope so.My favorite Spidey suit.
They dont seem to realize that this picture would not change one bit if Cavill were in it. They'd just cry "James ruined Snyders Superman!"Twitter continues to be a cesspool. Comments all over the place saying “bring back Cavill”
I literally thought it was another AI generated thing.One thing that's kind of throwing me off is the whole composition of the pic. When I stumbled upon it on Twitter, I thought it was a manip at first.
Posting a rugby player every day until the suit reveal Day 49:
I just prefer my superhero costumes to have that “lived in” feel, I guess. Which this one also does.I absolutely hated it at first, but in the movie it looked great.

Part of the problem is we built it up too big in our head. There was no suit that was going to meet that expectation. And while I am sure some will disagree...Gunn is getting exactly what he wants. He will have fun with the detractors a bit but he wants (some) people to care so much they hate it and will rage on it because as long as they dont pull a Michael B. Jordan and antagonize the fans they will still show up and see it no matter how much they protest on X or messageboards like this.Nah, it looks like a more huggable material than CW Supes. I like Superman looking huggable. That’s extremely important to me on a personal level.
I can already feel myself warming up to the aspects that caught me off-guard. By this time next week I’ll be in love. Just takes some adjusting lol.

Okay, I'm glad it wasn't just me! Admittedly, I missed the first drop and when I went to social media, I thought maybe it was just really good fanart.I actually thought it was a manip too.
