This image of Superman seems to be everywhere on Wikipedia. I've found this image on Wikipedia pages in Castelian, Danish, Interlingua, and Malagasy. Also on an English Wikimedia page with cosplay characters and German YouTube page where geeky things are discuss such as who is better: Superman or Iron Man? Who knew?
Cosplayer: Monkey of Steel
Superman's barn at Breeza. The American style barn is all that remains from the 2005 filming of Hollywood blockbuster, Superman Returns, which aired in 2006.
I had to put these two together and showcase some of the differences! The MOS figure is a bit taller and has a more athletic build! The BVS figure has wider lats and beefier shoulders and thighs! I plan to do some customizing on the BVS figure once the spare one I purchased arrives! The head sculpts are both excellent like most head sculpts from Hot Toys but also very different!
Please don't scream at the horrific faces on the left. Seems that while I was drawing them, they got hideously deformed. One's supposed to be based on Justice league: The animated series, and the other on Justice league: Doom. Or it might be young Justice, they both have similar art styles.
Now, the big one, the best of the three, isn't actually based on Superman. While looking for something to mimic, I stumbled across an image of Aquaman, from Superman: The animated series. So, I set at drawing him and wallah! Don't look too long at the eyes, they'll only upset you.
Now, the next bit is the shields. I somehow managed to draw six. Just experimenting with different styles, kinda got carried away. I'm quite fond of the Kingdom come shield, as you can probably tell.
As always, feedback is appreciated and I'd love to hear what you guys think :D
Probably the best superman cosplay I've ever seen! Taken at Starfest 2015.

Mr Fraser’s kidnapper ends up taking his victim to the outer limits of the city before deciding on a suitable location. One of Lexcorp’s old research and development labs before they had to expand and acquire a new facility. The site is still fairly well equipped to perform all manner of horrific actions against someone, as well as offering the benefit of privacy. This part of town is the old industrial district and there’s never anyone here after 9:30 pm. Much to this kidnapper’s benefit….or at least so he believes it to be.
The reality of his situation is that he’s currently having all of his actions recorded by my drones that are surveying him from a distance. Some people will no doubt question the ethics of such a matter, after all the justice system is always uncertain about using evidence which has been recorded without consent, much to most people’s surprise and or horror.
A quick scan of the facility exterior shows that even though the facility is state of the art, the fact that it has been abandoned for well over five years has allowed it to fall into considerable disrepair. Most notably the roof has collapsed in on the warehouse section of the building as well as visible signs of rust beginning to appear on the main entrance doors. It would appear Lionel had this facility built for as little money as he could spare, including the unnecessary cost of acquiring a Steel or Aluminium door. He really was a business man first and foremost and a scientist second. How often that’s overlooked given the amount of money Lexcorp now pours into Research and Development under his son’s guidance.
You’d be foolish to claim this wasn’t all in response to Clark’s appearance a few years back. After all, there’s nothing which stimulates scientific intrigue quite like witnessing the unexplainable first hand. Hell, it’s probably because of Clark’s appearance that the children of Metropolis seem to have taken such a keen interest in their studies. Attendance in almost every school has reached just shy of 95% a month, that’d be consider impossible just a couple of years ago. You can claim this is due to the Mayor’s newest policies, but this climb has been occurring well before he took office and not too long after Superman spoke about the importance of education for the young.
Who’d have figured that the big red and blue boy scout, who many go so far as to call the symbol of America, would be such a liberal.
As I narrow the distance between myself and the old facility, I take a brief glance at the live video feed from my drone that’s following the kidnapper and notice him storing Mr. Fraser in the lab’s controlled dispersal chamber. That certainly doesn’t bode well for Mr. Fraser, nor does the fact that his abductor is wearing an oxygen mask himself. Clearly this isn’t simply an abduction in the hopes of obtaining a ransom from relatives or acquaintances, but a targeted murder of Mr. Fraser.
Why? I cannot be sure. But it’s clear that the assailant intends to make his death look like an accident caused by Mr. Fraser accidentally wandering into the dispersal chamber. The proximity sensors would automatically reactivate the dormant computer systems and, in theory, disperse whatever residual gas was present in the system. At least, that’s what the authorities would assume had transpired. Fortunately, my drone tells a much different story.
“Why are you doing this? Who paid you?”
”No-one paid me. At least not yet.”
”Listen! I can pay you more! I get paid royalties because of this patent I own!”
”You mean the patent for the electrum alloy that your trust owns?”
”….How did you know about that?….Are you with the Court?”
”Court? What the hell are you talking about? I know about electrum because it’s what I’m rightfully owed.”
”Rightfully owed? Nothing in that trust belongs to you! The royalties it collects belong to me and me alone!”
”That’s not entirely true now, is it? The trust doesn’t belong to just you. It also belongs to someone else. Doesn’t it?”
”Y...Yes….it belongs to my former lab partner, Franklin Jones. He passed away two years ago.”
”And now you collect his royalties for the patent as well as your own, without any consideration for Franklin’s family? Not even for his son who recently returned from that mess we made in Kahndaq?”
”Rudy’s back here in Metropolis?”
He’s a lot closer than you think.”
”….You’re Rudy!?”
”The drink must be good if you only now recognise me.”
”You’ve changed so much since I last saw you! You’re even taller than I remember!”
”I’m also a lot poorer than the last time we saw one another Vernon. But I’m about to rectify that.”
”Rudy! What are you doing?”
”The trust is in both yours and my father’s names. To ensure that neither one of you screwed over the other you both agreed to mutual agreement clause, meaning there can be no change made without permission from both you. Then, when my father passed away it prevented any changes being made until you pass away.”
”What the hell are you talking about?”
”You probably didn’t read the fine print on your agreement. But when both you and my father are longer with us, the patent defaults to descendants.”
”But….I don’t have any children….”
”Oh, what a shame. I guess the royalties will get paid only to me.”
”This isn’t right Rudy. We both know this.”
”Nor is it right that you’ve been profiting off my dad’s hard work for the last two years whilst I’ve been forced to fight for my life on the streets! Abandoned by the very country I claimed to be protecting when I went into Kahndaq!”
….I’m sorry. If I had known….”
”You’d have done what anyone else would have done. Turned your back, and pretended that I didn’t exist.”
One kilometre and closing. Worst case scenario I’m there in four minutes. Just got to hope that Mr. Fraser can stall his kidnapper for just a little longer so I can get there to stop whatever it is he intends to do with that equipment he’s picking up.
June 12 Is Superman Day
Faster than a speeding bullet!
More powerful than a locomotive!
Able to leap tall buildings at a single bound!
"Look up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's Superman!"
"Yes, it's Superman, strange visitor from another planet who came to Earth with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men. Superman, who can change the course of mighty rivers, bend steel in his bare hands; and who, disguised as Clark Kent, mild-mannered reporter for a great metropolitan newspaper, fights a never ending battle for truth, justice, and the American way."
"And now, another episode in the exciting Adventures of Superman."
The first television actor who remains the benchmark of all the Superman shows is George Reeves, born as George Keefer Brewer on January 5, 1914, and died on June 16, 1959. The series featured him from 1952-1958 on the television program “The Adventures of Superman”.
Superman was created in 1933 by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster met in 1932 while in high school in Cleveland and bonded over their mutual love of fiction. Siegel aspired to become a writer and Shuster aspired to become an illustrator. Siegel wrote amateur science fiction stories, which he self-published as a magazine called Science Fiction: The Advance Guard of Future Civilization. His friend Shuster often provided illustrations for his work. In January 1933, Siegel published a short story in his magazine titled “The Reign of the Superman”.
It wasn’t until April 18, 1938 that the Superman we know of today appeared, and made his debut in Action Comics #1. It was so popular that Superman got his own comic book the following year.
Superman Day itself was started in 2013 by DC Entertainment, two days before the release of the Superman film, Man of Steel. At this time it was known as Man of Steel Day, and it was not until subsequent years that the day simply became known as Superman Day. Both the name change and the continuation of the day seem to have happened organically. On the inaugural day, DC Entertainment partnered with comic book retailers and bookstores across the United States to celebrate the day, and gave out free copies of All Star Superman #1 Special Edition.
How to Observe
Celebrate Superman Day be doing all things Superman related. Watch Superman movies and TV shows. Read Superman comic books. Listen to songs that reference Superman. Have a Superman themed party. To get more ideas it may be a good idea to read this book. This day could also be used as a day to help people who are in need, as that is what Superman does with his time.
How many of you remember that old Black and White series starring George Reeves as the original Superman?

Superman stood outside Union Station on the south side of Adams Street. He used a cane for support and was standing in the middle of a river of commuters. He's been out here 30 years. When I first asked what his name was, he said "Superman", with a smile. I asked him why he called himself that and he replied, "because of all the things I've been through and overcome". He stays in a shelter, but is out here 7 days a week. Other than shelter, he needs food. He has a small locker at the shelter, but can't keep too much in it because of it's size. He was a very gentle kind soul, with the strength...of Superman.
Κατά παραγγελία του γιου μου! Είναι ο αγαπημένος του ήρωας επειδή βγάζει φωτιές από τα μάτια. Πρώτη φορά που τον ζωγραφίζω, οπότε, Καλ Ελ σορυ για την όποια παραμορφωση! 😜💪🌎
Based on his New 52 appearance... I felt the cape looked sooooo good, it deserved a photoshop just so you could see XD
Ordered him to become part of my dollie world, as a very special character... Loyal followers of my stream may have an idea of who Superman Ken could represent.
As a side note: I decided to name him Gaston (so he is of French ancestry... ;-))
Bit of a cliche I know, but when you have got the T-Shirt its time to do the shot. We all have the hidden super-hero inside us (don't we??)
