How would the world react to our savior if he'd actually appeared as something completely inhuman?
Would he still be so widely praised and accepted by humanity as its savior?

For example if he looked something like this or even worse!

He does apparently...

Whatever issue he fought Kilowog...

I think a flashback in TheNail showed a Superman that looked slightly purple when he came out of the pod that brought him to earth.

Kent tried to shoot him before his wife grabbed the shotgun.

If he looked like that, he'd be a very, very different person now.

He wouldn't have been able to be raised with humans. He wouldn't feel the attachment he does.

Who knows how he would have turned out ?

I hardly believe humanity would love him so much if he didn't look like the perfect man.
Even saying some how he was able to be raised by the Kent and then changed to look like something entirely different form us right before he became Superman I still can't see him being anything like he is. And humanity surely wouldn't accept him half as well regardless of his actions.

Sad but true!

We probably would've cheered for Doomsday.

He wouldn't be a white man and you know they would find that unacceptable.

He couldn't be - if only because he was created in 1932.

No, because I never liked Superman to begin with, but looking more alien would be alright, imagine the immigration though.

Like Supes wouldn't be able to put on costume with superspeed and that vibrating thing he does, he could be one of those heros with masks and nothing would have changed much.

Wasn't there a whole arc in Batman/Superman about this?

Yeah I mean the elseworld story. Maybe it was from something else I read around the same time.

The Black Rock saga. It's a decent question, but a better one is, would he still want to be Superman if Lois hadn't reached out to him?


V: One drunk and stoned bad joke and everyone thinks you hate black people. roll eyes (sarcastic)

BA: Oops. stick out tongue .........I wish Farscape was still on. sad
