So sorta like when they started Ultimate Spider-Man.



Superman has a new look, and the redrawn Man of Steel now more closely resembles a a vampiric Robert Pattinson or a sulky member of My Chemical Romance than a hunky matinee idol.



The new Superman will appear in Superman: Earth One, a graphic novel by writer J. Michael Straczynski and artist Shane Davis that retells the superhero's origin story. While the iconic superhero retains his dark mane and defined six pack, he now has a decidedly more emo vibe -- pale, leaner, and brooding. (No need to get too worked up, Superman loyalists: This new graphic novel series doesn't replace the original comics, but rather will serve as a reinterpretation of his younger years.)

Yeah, I'm not a Die-Hard Superman fan so it doesn't bug me as much as it does the actual Die-Hard fans. Hell if what Marvel did a few years ago worked for them. Then this is liable to work for DC.
