Jim Lee famously hates Superman’s costume. Particularly because his ugly ass new 52 redesign was so thoroughly rejected by fans.

Jim hates all golden age relics; solid color blocks, 3 colors, limited accessories. He prefers lineslineslines and so as publisher he loves when redesigns pander to this retarded sensibility.

Yeah but then added lines lines lines with all of the armor plates. Lee has ZERO concept of color which is why he sees no problem with Sinclair destroying everything. He sees designs in black and white and so lines matter more to him than color blocking. Even if the lines do nothing to break up color.

This one's fine since it's specifically for an alternate universe.

Superman's costume is fucking stupid.
It's practically victorian. Back then the only muscular people were literal circus athletes, and so Superman's outfit is a circus strongman outfit.
The colours chosen have no significance, they're just the only colours available to extremely limited printing technologies of the 1940s.
The S doesn't mean hope, it means Superman, it's a literal S

When they made Terminator in the 80's they weren't so limited in creativity and technology and they created a outfit that actually looks good for the character. Putting Terminator in a circus outfit would be ridiculous. Putting Superman in a circus outfit is equally ridiculous.

They're ashamed of the source material. It really is that simple. Which is also the problem. They HATE simple costumes. There must be a need to modernize or revamp in some significant capacity. Enough for artists to say they put their mark on it. That said, there was a specific time where they revamped the costume and I thought it was great. The first costume worn by Superior Spider-Man - Spock. Kept to the classic setup so at a difference he's recognizable, but with enough little flourishes to make it stand apart from any other basic varoatopms when you get a good look.
