Whenever someone calls for help, famous reporter Clark Kent immediately runs to the nearest phone booth, rips off all his clothes when no one is looking and changes into Superman. Ta-daa: instant superhero! But what about when Superman wants to revert back to his alter ego? Does he make a quick trip back to his apartment in Metropolis for a change ...
Batman has a giant bat symbol on his chest. Green Lantern has a giant green lantern symbol on the front of his costume. The guy's name is Superman, so naturally he's going to have a big letter S on his chest. S stands for "Superman," right? The S in the insignia is actually a Kryptonian symbol for "hope" and is also used by any and all members who ...
The S-Shield is one of those icons that can be recognized, even if you're not a die hard comic book fan. When X-Men director Bryan Singer left X3 to direct Superman Returns, he added a variety of elements that were controversial. Fans had critiques about the movie ranging from the plotline involving Kal-El's potential son to the size of the S-Shiel...
Superman is nearly indestructible, but what about his clothing? Given all of the battles Superman engages in and all of the punishment he takes from his enemies, does he have a closet filled to the brim with spare costumes? In some iterations of Superman's origin, his iconic costume was made by Ma Kent from the material that he was found wrapped in...

If you do a screen grab of the suit that Henry Cavill wears in Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justiceyou'll see that there's Kryptonian writing on it, but did you know that if you took the time to translate it there's a hidden quote on the S-Shield and cuffs? Director Zack Snyder was a fan of t...
Sometimes we need to make a radical change in our lives. That change could come in the form of a haircut, quitting our jobs, or moving to another country. Or, your change could take the form of a complete redesign of your costume and obtaining completely different powers. In 1998, Superman lost his cape, traditional uniform, and his ability to abso...
You should feel lucky, Superman, because in this day and age there aren't any more phone booths for you to use. In the comics, Clark Kent would famously sneak off to a phone booth to do a quick change into his Man of Steel uniform. However, the Man of Steel's quick change today looks less like something Superman would do and something Tony Stark wo...
Besides super strength, heat vision, speed, and a slew of other powers, there's one superpower Superman has that's so unbelievable, you literally won't believe it when he uses it. You also won't understand it. In Superman II, starring the late, great Christopher Reeve, Superman fights General Zod (played not by Michael Shannon but by Terence Stamp)...
Just how many variations of the Superman S-Shield have there been over the years? The very first symbol at first glance resembles a police officer's badge (which would later become the shape of the shield used by the street-level hero known as The Guardian). Most of them have kept the pattern of the red S with a yellow background, although some ite...
Christie's is a world-famous auction house that has sold a variety of high-priced items since they first opened in 1766. Among other rarities and gems (many of those being actual gemstones, by the way), Christie's has sold a rare Stradivarius violin for $3.5 million and a Picasso painting for $106 million to name a few items. What probably interest...
In several 'dress changing' scenes in the original Superman movies starring Christopher Reeve, we can see that the movie director opted to show the audience that Clark Kent's ordinary clothing gets visually morphed or faded into his Superman uniform right before our eyes.
With Man of Steel, director Zack Snyder will be dressing Henry Cavill in a cutting-edge concept for Superman's suit and cape - but how did the transformation from Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster's circus strongman to a soldier from another world take place?
