Will Superman Wear the Black Recovery Suit in “Justice League”?

The blue turned black and the red turned black while the yellow turned silver. And the toy is just a toy, if there were more collectables like the pop figures, in black I’d be more convinced. Then in the trailer we can see the bit of… Read more »

None of the colors Superman has weared in these movies is his color. But wearing (the 1st minutes we see him in JL) the black recovery suit is the only hing this Superman has in common with the comics.
