Michael Wilkinson and
James Acheson are responsible for controversially updating

Superman and superheroes in general, and I'm more than willing to suspend my disbelief at the impracticality of the design. If you like an outfit closer to the colourful original suit, be sure to click through to check out
Brandon Routh's Superman Returns movie costume, which I thought was a really fantastic update.
