It’s contest time here at Comic Booked! After seeing DC’s New 52 panel at San Diego Comic Con, I had an idea… an idea that could spread across the comic book community and unite DC fans both new and old. I said to myself, “What if we had a contest where the fans got to create their own reboot suits?” This could either make fans feel worse about the new costumes, or leave them feeling grateful for Jim Lee’s designs. But most of all, it would be a lot of fun to see what sort of designs our readers can come up with.
Onto the contest rules! We are going to progress through the contest one hero at a time, and first on the list is my personal favorite, The Man of Steel himself… Superman!

Too cool pumped to see what people send in!
Wicked cool contest!
Thanks James! I hope you enter.
It's too white-washing, Superman does NOT wear knee pads, he is not suppose to wear them, he's the man of steel, he doesn't need them! I hate the collar, it's a sign of arrogance and the suit looks a little too armor-like!
Wonder Woman is NOT suppose to wear black or wear black pants or any pants! It doesn't look right with her outfit.
She need back her blue shorts with patriotic stars!
Dan Didio's to blame for this. I don't care what other people say. Some thing are best left alone!
