"Say Jim! That's a bad outfit! Whooooaa!"

From George Reeves’ classic TV look, to Christopher Reeve’s timeless movie costume, through to the modern designs worn by Brandon Routh, Henry Cavill, and Tyler Hoechlin, we are diving deep into the evolution of one of the most important aspects of the Man of Steel myth, the suit itself!

This week Rob and Alan are joined by Rob’s old friend and Superman expert Parker Johnson for the first episode of a two-part special where we discuss and rank every live-action Superman suit put to screen.

Which designs stand the test of time? Which ones took bold risks? And how have these costumes reflected the changing times and changing interpretations of Superman himself?
