The Superman Story I Plan on Making in the Future

Just a few months ago, I become interesting in making my own version of the Last Son of Krypton, Superman. As I mentioned many times before, I am not the biggest buff when it comes to The Man of Steel, but I do like the character a lot and I am certainly looking forward to The Man of Steel movie by Zach Snyder in 2013. But I have always invisioned a version of Superman far different than any other. This Superman is darker, edgier, and much more contemporary compared to the other versions of Superman out there, which were a bit dark and moody to their own extent. My version of Kal-El from Krypton does not bare the classic, oversized red cape with the yellow S on the back of it, instead wearing a red coat that is much more modern and sophisticated in my opinion. However, the jacket does carry the yellow S on the back of it just as the original cape did, and the red, blue and yellow costume that makes Superman Superman is also intact, although I have given it a more technological appeal. This new suit is like a mini suit of armor, although we all know Superman really doesn't need armor, unless he is bombarded by an incoming kryptonite shower, and Superman has no more bare hands, a thick pair of red gloves covering them up like the gloves of both Batman and Spider-Man.

And the most unique thing I have done to my version of Superman is that he sports red eyes, obviously due to his laser vision. I envision Superman's eyes bursting into flames as he shoots laserbeams from his eyes, giving the character a much more menacing and supernatural look. It's also very different and makes this version of Superman stick out from all the rest. The city of Metropolis and the planet Krypton before it's destruction I also envision being a lot shadier, a lot more gray and somber looking, similar to what Gotham City looked like in Tim Burton's Batman films. But I am really looking forward to working on this story in the near future, and as I increase production of my upcoming film, Star Trek: Quest For Krypton, I will definately be looking into this and making a version of Superman's tale like no other. I envision it as somewhat of a Close Encounters of the Third Kind like story, with Superman nearly loosing his mind over the thoughts of the aliens, the kryptonians, and once he finds out who he really is, it is a groundbreaking moment, and you can really feel the shock and wonder within the character, something clearly displayed in Richard Donner's 1978 film.

I am not exactly sure what I will call this Superman story, maybe Ape Crazy Supes or something like that, but whatever it is, it will entitle a great story, a story that I have always wanted to do. After all, I have been writing stories all my life and it will be interesting how I tackle such a powerful icon like the guy in the blue spandex.
