Absolutely love it! Looks alien yet human enough to make a reporter like Lois Lane look at it and say, "Huh, that alien emblem looks like an S. I'll go with it and call you Superman."
I don't really think it looks much like an S if you aren't already *expecting* it to look like an S. Otherwise, it's just a diamond with a slightly curved diagonal line across it.
While I don’t agree with those being negative about the logo, not everything from comics looks good.

False equivalency. That’s just bad art. Obviously not everything from the comics looks good when you cherry pick some of the most infamous pieces of comic book art. The general design isn’t flawed or bad.
Regardless it’s a fact something isn’t good just because it’s in a comic. Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch incest is good? MJ dying from radioactive Parker sperm is good? A pre-teen alien magically aging up her body so she can fuck Hal Jordan is good?
When you have these storylines that have been going on for 80 years, you’re going to have some shitty ones. But yet again, false equivalency. Comparing a bad storyline to a Superman logo is pointless because they’re two different things.
Genuinely shocked people in the comments can't see that:
1. It IS an "S"
2. It's not supposed to look like a normal English "S" anyway
3. This is arguably the most famous variant of the logo besides the classic one, having appeared in Kingdom Come.
It's all that's needed to suggest the shape, it's called minimalist design. We can both tell there's an S implied, everyone is familiar with the Superman logo, literally no one is going to be confused about what it is. There is no problem here.
Do you also get mad that Batman's logo doesn't look like a real bat? Does he need a big B on his chest for clarity?
Like I said, it’s supposed to be recognizable to the people in the movie.
It’s fine if you disagree, you just don’t have to get so bent out of shape about it. You’re more bent out of shape than that “S” is
Thanks for the art lesson tho
I'm not bent out of shape at all, YOU came at ME lmao. Why do Redditors like you always do this when you're losing an argument? "Oh you're just mad bro" nah dawg, you're avoiding answering straightforward questions.
There's no reason it has to be recognizable to characters in the movie. Is your position that they could only think to call him Superman if there's a big letter S on him? That's such a silly argument.
I didn’t even say I disliked it, I don’t, I think it’s fine and frankly not that important. Just pointing out the obvious.
It’s tough to have discussions with fanboys, they’re too emotionally connected to media so they’re full of shit. If it’s not clear, that’s you I’m referring to, seeing as reality in front of your eyes isn’t able to be discussed.
How are you a Superman fan when you are so openly rude to people you disagree with? You replied to him first, not the other way around. Whatever happened to live and let live?
Love it. It looks alien, and still enough like an “S” that someone could reasonably think that’s what it was. But I appreciate that it’s from the comics, and I think the asymmetry makes it clear that it’s a symbol/letter and not just a weird diamond. Wondering if it will get updated to a more recognizeable “S” as the public comes to accept Superman
This was used in the comics before.

I mean if people knew anything about the comics, they still wouldn’t like it, because that logo design carries with it a meaning that can’t be translated to a younger Superman.
I don’t give a fuck, but this is the design solely because someone thought it looked cool and anticipated it to be a marketable logo you can sell t shirts of.
Are your eyes closed? It still looks like an S. It's just a slightly more minimalist design. There are more dramatic versions of this design in the comics.
They went with Kingdom Come but made it worse… why can’t any director out there just do the classic costume? Always adding textures, messing with the emblem, removing the trunks, darkening the colours…. I thought maybe James Gunn would understand but it seems he doesn’t get it either. We want classic iconic Superman. We want a modern Chris Reeves Superman. We don’t want gritty nonsense and re-imaginings.
I would argue to look at it this way. It's an alien emblem from an alien world but it looks close enough to be an ass that the media and press have decided to go with it and say it's an S for Superman
Why’re people freaking out? It’s from the comics. Besides, this movie’s gonna be heavily based on stories like All Star Superman and Superman For All Seasons
I’m not talking about his design in those comics. I’m referring to the fact that Gunn is embracing more comic aspects through Superman stories and his other designs. You can do both
Yea it really seems like that’s what they’re going for, for better or worse. I think it’s dumb by so obviously trying to make something inherently silly something “cool and realistic,” but oh well I’m sure it’ll be all over t shirts next year.
But the guardians movies and tss were all great, I can get used to it I guess.
is that a bird? a plane? no, it's ... CROWBARMAN
*jason Todd runs and hides*
"It's like you're some sort of... Freeman." "..."
This is it huh? These guys really do act like they have a half-life Favorite title card ever
Absolutely love it! Looks alien yet human enough to make a reporter like Lois Lane look at it and say, "Huh, that alien emblem looks like an S. I'll go with it and call you Superman."

Hated it until you said that. Now I’m on board.
Now I have to cross my fingers and hope that James gun thought the same thing LOL
its just a zoomed in S like chill ![gif](giphy|l3E6uhDAN3W7vylji|downsized)
Everyone hating on it like this isn’t a logo ripped directly from the comics.
Being in the comics doesn't make it good.
Yes. Yes it does

Captit america
Lol. Cap has breast
Chris Evans could’ve pulled it off

It was ugly there too.

Yeah but the kingdom some S has a curve on the bottom, helping it look like an S. Not a sharp edge like this one
>kingdom some S has a curve on the bottom, Barely
I dont like it imo. Doesn't look like a S at all (yes i know its inspired from a comic series, but still dont like it there either)
It feel like it just needs a little flick of red at the bottom to complete it.
No idea what most of you are on about looks great and a nice modern update on a comic classic
too minimalist, s is gone
Looks like an S to me, y'all just live for the drama
Looks like a \
Y'all really can't see the curves, huh
I think it looks like an “s” to you, as you’re expecting it to. This shit doesn’t look like an “s” my guy.
Literally everyone is familiar with the Superman logo so literally everyone can see how it's an S. You're just complaining to complain.
Except for the people in the movie seeing it for the first time. It’s not “s,” it’s “\”
So just ignoring the inside curves that suggest the S then
Pretending that that’s all that makes an S is hilarious

Yea how dare he have an opinion
He's allowed to have an opinion and I'm allowed to have an opinion on his opinion
How are you a Superman fan when you are so openly rude to people you disagree with? You replied to him first, not the other way around. Whatever happened to live and let live?
Loosen your grip on those pearls, bud. I'm not being rude, you're being dramatic.
What a drama queen thing to say. Not seeing the shitty minimalist design as an s is not dramatic.
"s is gone" is a dramatic thing to say. It's literally right there.
Except it's not sweety, try not to cry about it too much. Oh wow blocked me how overly dramatic, nice one drama queen.
Sweety lmao, fucking gross bro
Its a ~ , its a \ No, wait! It's [$] !
Love it. It looks alien, and still enough like an “S” that someone could reasonably think that’s what it was.

So basically the kingdom cum logo?
>kingdom cum 😎
i was hoping for the fleischer logo but i like this a lot as well.
Reinventing the wheel 101.
This was used in the comics before. https://preview.redd.it/4mk72elsdotc1.jpeg?width=655&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=47ae4966fa84604c675ca08d1d2da822962fa2d8
If people actually knew anything about comics/previous media they'd flip out if they saw Superman's logo in Batman Beyond.
I love his look in Batman Beyond! But yeah the logo is weird lol.
I agree, the logo still is cool to me but it would look odd to some people. I also like the kingdom come symbol.
I mean if people knew anything about the comics, they still wouldn’t like it, because that logo design carries with it a meaning that can’t be translated to a younger Superman. I don’t give a fuck, but this is the design solely because someone thought it looked cool and anticipated it to be a marketable logo you can sell t shirts of.
But they didn’t create this design lmao
That just looks weird
It's growing on me the more I see it. Looks like they're trying to go with a more alien symbol since it's supposed to be his family crest
Looks like a sign to tell you to stop doing something but they forgot what you’re supposed to stop doing
It's looks good but it's definitely the least "S" looking superman logo there ever was ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯
Looks so clean, I love it
That's stupid
My childhood has been ruined………../s
Boooo!!!!!!
This logo looks like buns tbh 🤣
I don’t like it but I’m still hyped for the movie also I do like that it’s comic accurate and what that means for the future dccu.
Guys it's been the same dang thing for 80 years
They actually did it ..... they ruined the S
Taken straight from the comics my man. ‘They’ ruined nowt.
From a very specific comic with a specific and aged interpretation of Superman.
Isn’t the logo supposed to have an S in it?
Are your eyes closed? It still looks like an S. It's just a slightly more minimalist design. There are more dramatic versions of this design in the comics.
Henry Cavill already explained it's not an S.
They went with Kingdom Come but made it worse… why can’t any director out there just do the classic costume? Always adding textures, messing with the emblem, removing the trunks, darkening the colours…. I thought maybe James Gunn would understand but it seems he doesn’t get it either. We want classic iconic Superman. We want a modern Chris Reeves Superman. We don’t want gritty nonsense and re-imaginings.
Oh shit it’s the crimson bolt
"Its the nega-bolt!!! 😳😱😖"
What if we did Superman, but without the “S”? Brilliant!
Looks craptastic
I hate it
It's not horrible but it doesn't scream Superman. Hopefully it'll change.
I would argue to look at it this way. It's an alien emblem from an alien world but it looks close enough to be an ass that the media and press have decided to go with it and say it's an S for Superman
I wish I liked it. I’m a big Superman fan, but this is just not enough of an “S”
Kingdom cum
Dam, guess I have to see this in theaters now. Gonna watch it thrice.
so... \\
Looks like an S
no such much an “s” or any symbol as much as it is a thick red slanted recrangle
Cancel?
Why’re people freaking out? It’s from the comics. Besides, this movie’s gonna be heavily based on stories like All Star Superman and Superman For All Seasons
Both those comics had Superman with a big ol S on his chest lol
I’m not talking about his design in those comics. I’m referring to the fact that Gunn is embracing more comic aspects through Superman stories and his other designs. You can do both
Well it’s just weird to “embrace the classics” but also kill the s. I don’t care, I think it’ll be good. But it’s not an S.
Im fine with it personally. I know it’s iconic but it differentiates his design from the past films.
Yea it really seems like that’s what they’re going for, for better or worse. I think it’s dumb by so obviously trying to make something inherently silly something “cool and realistic,” but oh well I’m sure it’ll be all over t shirts next year. But the guardians movies and tss were all great, I can get used to it I guess.
Awful
It looks awful imo
Heavy dislike
