So apparently a comic book artist wants to try and appeal to the new (Twilight) generation being more hip and what not. Saw this on yahoo, your thoughts?

[QUOTE="frostybanana"]He was always emo. He was just a closet emo the entire time and nobody paid attention because he's boring.Vader993
im emo too then:cry:
you're not an emo if no one pays attention to you. you're just more likely to start a rap/rock band and sing about how nobody likes you.Epic fail who wrote that article. The story is similar to marvels ultimate books. Classic heroes being retold for modern audience, I have not read the story but they explain this is Clark kent(21) just moving to the city and he wears layered clothes to hide his uniform.
Great. What'll be next? A depressed vigilante who dress like a bat at night?Tweetie-Pot
Batman is getting a similar book under this imprint so hopefully.
Hahaha i totally agree with you. Also agree with the comments on the page...he looks evil.Disgusting
People have no respect for characters these days
First it was the awful Wonder Woman makeover that goes against everything that the character is about and now this goes against what Superman was founded on.

The person who wrote this artical has no idea what he is talking about, not to mention this is not even main DC superman. It is a new imprint, new continuity, altered but fundamentally the same charachters.
By the way, this link is seeming less and less like a joke :oxaos
That spiderman did not seem that different.
It reminds me of Superboy-Prime (also known as Superman-Prime).Yagr_Zero
He is a more badass superman, he owned everybody, sadly he was a little EMO but I guess you mean him using the black armor

Can't get to be more of a whiny emo loser than Superboy Prime.Some great quotes
I'll kill you! I'll kill you to DEATH!
You fooled everyone into thinking you're actually Superboy. You don't even have a cape!
I'm not stupid
Stop hitting me Cold?
Cold is being the lone survivor of a dead universe! Cold is being imprisoned when you tried to make things better! Cold is what this universe has made me!
You can't get rid of me! When I grow up, I'm gonna be Superman! Don't any of you understand?!
I am special!
I'm the only one who can rescue this messed-up universe. I'm the only one who knows how to make it right. I will be its greatest hero! When you're gone... I will be Superman!
Oh, great. The robot. The buildings. Yeah. I'm in the stupid future.
It doesn't matter. My parents are dead.
They think I'm powerless. They think I can't do anything from here. They're wrong. (starts typing on a computer) They'll never get rid of me. I always survive. (I image he was updating his blog)

We must have different definitions of badass.
I meant pretty much from all the emotions Superboy-Prime went through reminded me a little how he looks at times in comparison to the new picture of Superman in the Yahoo link.

Despite all that, he was a tough son of a gun.Yagr_ZeroAnnoyingly tough, though; not excitingly tough :P
In terms of power well yeah he is quite evil and beat superboy, green lantern among others In terms of character, he is as gay as the guys from queer eye for the straight guy and as EMO as the guys from southpark so yeah, I think I overestimated him, reading the quotes again he doesn't sound so menacing. But the pics are pretty :)We must have different definitions of badass.

[QUOTE="xaos"] Annoyingly tough, though; not excitingly tough :PYagr_ZeroHe cut a swath through the Legion in the Legion of 3 Worlds title.
Yeah and he scratched the superman S into his own chest, how come only wolverine can cut himself and be cool. :cry:
Not only this Twilight issue is afecting superheroes from DC universe it is also affecting videogames
Take a look at this and then compare it to the pic in the link given by TC

Dante, true badass demon hunter extraordinare

Apparently he is even more emo than I thought.I like how most people aren't very knowledgeable on Superman: Earth One, calling him emo. The people that wrote that article were being stupid. It's just an elseworlds reimagining story of Superman's origins in a modern setting.

Thank you for actually knowing what you are talking about. I felt like the only comic nerd here.
I forgot to say, it really doesn't matter. There are a lot of hacks out there writing and drawing comic books. At least this is just some book that won't effect anything, it isn't as bad as Spider Man One More Day with him making deals with the devil and having him no longer be married.Legolas_KatarnI wasn't too sure where they thought doing that was a good idea. If they wanted Gwen to be his, then create a new universe. It's not like the Marvel Universe isn't infinitely large already :roll:.
The article is a poor attempt to gain views, the image is of a young superman similar to the marvel ultimate universe with a young peter parker. This is what he looks like when he really takes on the role of superman.

Good post, and first I thought I was going to skip this books. But considering how I just spent 4 posts defending I might fork up the cash. Curse you bad internet article writers.

They said in an article back then they just wanted him single again thinking it will attract new readers. Most of the comics I have that have him with a woman have been him and Black Cat.
Wow not emo at all, guess it isn't that bad Besides, clark's nerdy look was starting to look like a cliche, is a good updateDarthkaiser
Meh I like it more then spidermans, Hip modern mid twenty something apparal. He still comes off like a highschooler sometimes.
