Yeah, one is colorful and actually looks like Superman, the other is a colorless mess that has nothing in the middle to break it up.
Always rely on you for the absolute worst possible takes when it comes to Superman!

Zack doesn't care if the new suit is more or less quality than his version. He is focused on releasing extended versions of his new projects. I recommend you do the same. because walking around as a crybaby for dead universe is pathetic.

A lot will be done in post production. I do like the colours actually. Very comics accurate.
