    Default Bring back the Rebirth costume.

    Okay, enough already. They brought back the red diapers for old nostalgia people, and that's fine for a little while. But now it's starting to get irritating. There was nothing wrong with the Rebirth outfit. When are they bringing it back?

    I understand you don't like the outfit, but being wildly inaccurate (calling the trunks a diaper) to promote your opinion just makes me take your opinion far less seriously

    That's fair, perhaps over the top on my part. But again I ask when are they bringing it back? It was a great costume. A perfect compromise between the new 52 costume and the old costume. A perfect upgrade.

    Here's a way to bring it back that's both practical and pleasing aesthetically. Kryptonians are vulnerable to magic and other things, so suit could provide protection where other Kryptonian vulnerabilities can't defend, what do you think?

    The Reborn suit (not with blue boots, the one after the fusion) was a perfect update, I'd agree. I hate that we suffered through some really badly designed costumes, and just as we finally hit the jackpot with a perfect new look, it gets reverted to the classic.

    Alas, I doubt we'll see the Reborn suit again, outside of easter egg shots of it hanging on a wall in the Fortress.

    Still, I'll take the classic suit over the New52 version any day. Lee's great for pin ups and splash pages, but there are some serious flaws in his design aesthetic.

    I agree. Enough of the blue cough with red trunks abomination suit that is being used. Bring back the reborn suit. I miss the belt buckle.it was different and very much superman.

    It lives on in animation. JLA, YJ, and the DC Animated movies basically have it as their Superman design.
