DC Comics Ditches Superman’s Costume

DC Comics Ditches Superman’s Costume

Check out preview pages below to Action Comics #41 which apparently reveals DC Comics ditching Superman’s costume.

When the New 52 was launched in 2011, DC Comics did way with the classic look of Superman’s red tights and replaced the costume with something more in line with what eventually Henry Cavill wore in Man of Steel.

For fans following all the movie and comic book news, the move shouldn’t have come as a surprise as it’s known Warner Bros. executive had a say in how Superman (and probably every other DC comic) was handled (is handled?) – just ask George Perez.

Now we see in the preview pages below, the Superman costume is no more.

Action Comics #41 hits June 3rd.

Writer: Greg Pak & Araon Kuder
Art: Aaron Kuder
Description: The epic new storyline “TRUTH” begins! For Superman, there’s no more holding back!
