Description
My version of Superman inspired by the legendary Action Comics No.1 comic book.
I´m planning to do a series of illustrations with a more realistic/down to earth approach of these first appeareance designs of many popular superheroes. Most people recognize the more recent interpretations but there are fascinating aspects from a design and also storytelling point of view of these early works.
Here we can see the suit made of cloth with noticeable seams, and a human body inspired by B/W photos of bodybuilders from the 30s.
You can check an alternate version that matches the design of the suit that appeared on the cover of that story, where you can notice a different shield and a different accesory in his legs here -> fav.me/d71b28r and anooother version, first approach, available on My Scraps, here -> fav.me/d7146rj
*update* you can check a tumblr with the series here: superherofirst.tumblr.com/

Awesome take on Superman's first appearance look. I know you did one with Batman, are we going to see more of these for other heroes? I'd love to see your take on Golden Age Wonder Woman.
