Good cover. Nice to see Frank can draw a Superman that doesn't look like creepily like Christopher Reeve.

I liked Frank's Chris Reeve Superman but it'd be nice if he drew interiors again.

Too bad Johns is hogging him for Earth One and will likely hog him for the sequel books too.

I like it. Makes Jim Lee's atrocity look good and pretty cool. I'm just having a hard time excepting that Superman has to wear armor and clunky-ish things. But it does look kinda cool atleast when drawn by the right person. Even the S symbol looks cool.

On one hand, yeah, it is cool that he's drawing a slightly different face for this take on Superman. On the other hand... Originally Posted by jloder24

I think he looked more like Henry Cavill this time.

Love Gary Frank's art.
But that costume is an eyesore. Superman's costume was perfection. Not anymore!

jim lee's superman suit is awesome,cant see anyone would think otherwise,merino does a good job on it,even scott does it well.Frank's superman is amazing,its not the suit that sucks,its the artist drawing it badly.

You can't? Really? Maybe it's because the classic costume was loved for 75 years, and this looks like a reject from the early days of Image Comics?

Gotta do something about that hair, its looking like a high fade or something. But he draws the costume great.
