And I can say more Snyder's Superman was our introduction to the actual Superman, the comic accurate Superman.
SNYDER'S SUPERMAN IS NOT A DECONSTRUCTION.
This is a lie that have been spreading around the internet for too long and it is time to spread the truth.
Henry's Superman is nothing but a faithful adaptation.
MoS and BvS were (not only, but mostly) based on John Byrne's Man of Steel and Birthright. And guess what, these are the canon origin stories of DC's main canon Superman story after the Crisis on Infinite Earths.
You have been lied to.
Everything they say that is a deconstruction or subversion is nothing but Snyder adapting Superman's main storyline. Som3 examples...
Picture 1: Snyder adapted Krypton very well, from it's visuals (the towers, even the flying creatures), to their culture and lore. The artificial baby facilities that you see on the movie and their cold and detatched society comes directly from the comics. On the movie Zod calls Jor-El's act of having a child out of that system an heresy because it was a taboo for comic Krypton as well. And, funnly enough, even when Kal appears as a baby he is already said to be like a god, just like on the movie... Superman is god-like, this wasn't invented by Snyder, this was on the comics.
Picture 2: Johnatan has asked Clark to hide his powers as a kid since the oldest comics. On the post crisis reboot this was kept, and even more emphasized. On Byrne's Man of Steel Clark goes on a quest to save people anonymously, always hiding his identity, just like on MoS. It is further explored on Birthright, were he is shown having to flee whenever someone discovers his identity, and even tells Ma not to to tell Pa Kent when he used his powers... Later on Byrne's Man of Steel when Clark makes his first public appearance as a super Pa Kent sees this on the journal and explicitly says "this is something we never wanted to see".
Picture 3: Johnatan was right. Clark would face a lot of struggle if his powers were made public, Snyder didn't invent this, this was on the comics and he was right. As soon ws Superman is revealed, both on comics and movie, he becomes a polarizing figure, bringing the worst and best in people at the same time, as it was shown on BvS; his iconic scene with the crowd was taken directly from the comics. Lex Luthor is the best example, he tried to control Superman on comics and came to hate him, and on BvS he manipulated evidences to falsely incriminate Superman and make Batman want to kill him and the world hate him.
And you know what? This was true even in real life.
When the actual faithful Superman came to the big screen he was s polarizing figure. Just look around, even though we are here defending Snyder's work and Henry's accurate Superman there was and still is an ocean of posers and normies who didn't read anything about the character but hated him when he ess faithfully adapted, and who hated Snyder for daring to show to us all Superman as he really is.
They around lying about Superman, trashing the character and advocating that it be turned into a ridiculous joke.
But I know that I speak for many here when I say that Henry was our introduction to Superman...
To the actual...
Faithful...
Superman.
I know that I speak from people from all over the world, people from Brazil like me such as @AbsoluteBostil and @StranikLuxin , people from the USA such as @jkbaker1117 and @JohnWarpower , people from Canada such as @BobDigi69 , and many more.
Zack Snyder brought Superman from comic to life and showed us what the Man of Steel really is.
Not a bland and boring scout.
But a great character.
@DCStannn Snyder is not coming back, we need Gunn to make Luthor turn Superman gay using Kryptonite, that would be real representation.
Plus, Superman made 800M profit with 600M BO, of course they wanna keep him.
