    He should wear the suit designed by Micheal Turner he wore in the Godfall arc covers.

    No. Every time they tried to change it, it sucked. I don't mind them experimenting from time to time, but the costume is good as it is.

    @Primmaster64: 
    1. Too manga.
    2. Too blue.
     
    The original has just the right mix of red and Blue (and yellow) which conveys both a sense goodness and responsibility and inherent badassery. Any alteration to it would make Superman look either too meak or too psychotic.

    No, absolutely not! Superman's costume is iconic. You don't mess with success. It'll be like painting a mustache on the Mona Lisa.

    They should never change it. No one is getting bored of it. At least not that I can tell. Wonder Woman only got a new costume because she has an on again off again title. They were just trying to get people to read her again. It's not the same problem with Supes.

    Did you not read the other posts in this thread then?  I've been bored with Supes's costume for quite a while, and I'm definitely not alone in that opinion, but I understand if it's not gonna change due to its iconic status and all.

    from the images of the "new" Batman costume that I saw....there was absolutely no differences between it and the one he wore prior to his death
     
    Superman's costume is perfect....for all of you saying how the underwear on the outside is stupid then look at Batman's...he does it but no one complains about it

    Michael Turner's Superman suit is pretty bad-arse, but it's not Superman.  
     
    Batman is dark, Superman is pure.  
     
     
    Keep Supes the way he is.

    @danhimself: It's because Batman is 'cool' and Superman is too pure to be considered 'cool'.  
     
    I bet if Superman had a bad attitude and acted like a complete d0uch3 people would love him. It works for Wolverine and Batman.

    I believe his costume is very iconic but it can be changed. It just has to be done little by little, change the belt a little, next month change the boots a little etc. Although keep the original colors.

      Excuse me, but I believe you should never ever compare Wolverine and Batman.  I like them both, but don't compare them.  Batman is to cool to be compared to anyone other than Batman.
     
      Superman's costume is fine, I have no problem with it and there isn't anything wrong with it.
