Welcome to the Superman Super Site
Superman is the brainchild of Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster who first envisioned the character in 1932 and later had his first appearance in Action Comics #1 in June 1938. What Jerry and Joe did not know at the time was that they had created a character that would become the signature icon of DC Comics and the most universally recognized hero in human history.
Since 1938, the character of Superman/Clark Kent has appeared in every imaginable media form including television, film, novelizations, and even a Broadway show.
Being Superman is the childhood fantasy of every little boy and girl (they of course want to be Supergirl). He is an enduring emblem of the American dream, the young immigrant who comes to the United States, embraces the culture and makes something of himself and enriches his adopted nation. He is a classical hero in the modern age who fights criminals, rescues the helpless and has a sense of morals and justice as strong and unshakeable as he is.
Since 1998, the Superman Super Site's mission statement has been to bring you all the latest news, updates, and information pertaining to the Man of Steel and the Superman universe in general.
It is a mission we are proud to maintain for all the fellow Superman fans of the world and everyone who visits our site because, without you, we would not exist.

DC Studios has announced that actor Jimmy Tatro will portray the legendary DC Comics villain Gorilla Grodd in the upcoming HBO Max series focused on Daily Planet photographer Jimmy Olsen.
Tatro, known for his roles in "American Vandal", "Theater Camp", and "Home Economics", will bring the fan-favorite supervillain to the screen as part of the expanding DC Universe. Gorilla Grodd, a highly intelligent and telepathic gorilla with a long history in DC Comics, has traditionally served as one of The Flash’s most dangerous adversaries, though the character has also appeared throughout the broader DC Universe as a threat to multiple heroes.
The upcoming series will feature Skyler Gisondo reprising his role as Jimmy Olsen, first introduced in DC Studios’ "Superman" (2025). The project follows Olsen and his Daily Planet colleagues as they investigate extraordinary events involving metahuman activity, blending elements of investigative storytelling with the larger superhero world established under DC Studios.
The casting continues Tatro’s ongoing collaboration with American Vandal creators Dan Perrault and Tony Yacenda, who are developing the series and serving as executive producers. The project is among several television offerings being developed as part of DC Studios’ interconnected slate overseen by co-chairmen James Gunn and Peter Safran.
Gorilla Grodd’s inclusion marks another major addition to the growing lineup of DC characters being introduced within the new DC Universe. Additional details regarding production, supporting cast members, and release plans are expected to be announced at a later date.

Nearly five decades after the original first edition was released as a mass-market paperback in 1978 alongside the theatrical debut of Superman: The Movie, David Michael Petrou’s The Making of Superman: The Movie – Limited Second Edition Hardcover finally receives the premium presentation it has long deserved. This beautifully produced collector’s edition transforms a beloved behind-the-scenes classic into a definitive hardcover volume, preserving the historical importance of Petrou’s original work while offering fans an expanded and enhanced look at one of the most ambitious productions in Hollywood history.
The Limited Second Edition Hardcover elevates the original publication with a large-format design, 22 pages of previously unpublished photographs, and an extensive collection of authentic production imagery that provides a remarkable window into the making of the film.

Petrou’s firsthand perspective remains the book’s greatest strength. With unique access to the production—and even a brief appearance in the film as the Smallville football team manager—he delivers an engaging account of the challenges, triumphs, and collaborative spirit that defined the filmmaking experience. His detailed narrative explores the massive sets, groundbreaking visual effects, and extraordinary efforts of director Richard Donner, the cast, and the crew, while also capturing the heart and sincerity that made Superman: The Movie such an enduring classic. Beyond the technical achievements, Petrou preserves the passion and optimism that continue to distinguish the film nearly five decades after its release.
The Limited Second Edition Hardcover is more than a reissue; it is a fitting tribute to a landmark film and the creative team that brought it to life. Combining historical significance, stunning archival photography, and Petrou’s insightful storytelling, the book is an essential addition for Superman fans, film historians, and collectors alike.

The limited-edition releases expand the company's Dynamic 8ction Heroes (DAH) line with premium sixth-scale figures inspired by Superman's classic comic appearance and his black-suited return in Justice League.
The first release, the DAH-142SP DC Comic Superman: Son of Tomorrow, presents the iconic superhero in his traditional blue-and-red costume with metallic accents, a detailed head sculpt, the signature "S" shield and a wired fabric cape designed for dynamic posing.

A screen-used costume worn by Christopher Reeve during his memorable portrayal of the corrupted Man of Steel in "Superman III" (1983) is set to cross the auction block later this month as part of Heritage Auctions' Hollywood/Entertainment Signature Auction. The iconic "Evil Superman" ensemble, one of the most recognizable costumes from Reeve's tenure as Superman, will be offered during the July 13th - 17th event with an opening bid of $100,000.
The five-piece costume consists of the signature blue tunic and tights, maroon trunks, gold belt and flowing red cape worn by Reeve after Superman falls under the influence of synthetic kryptonite in the film's pivotal second act. Distinguished by its darker color palette and weathered appearance, the costume was worn during several of the film's most memorable sequences, including the character's increasingly erratic behavior and the climactic junkyard confrontation in which Clark Kent battles his darker Superman persona. Heritage Auctions notes that the ensemble retains production markings from renowned costume house Bermans & Nathans identifying it as having been made for Christopher Reeve, while visible harness openings and other production-specific details further support its screen-used history.
According to the auction house, the costume originated directly from Warner Bros. before entering private ownership and was later sold through Profiles in History in 2011. The lot is accompanied by a Heritage Auctions certificate of authenticity and extensive catalog documentation detailing its provenance. Original costumes worn by Reeve during the production of the four Superman films remain among the rarest and most sought-after pieces of superhero film memorabilia, with comparatively few complete ensembles having surfaced on the public market.
Released in 1983, "Superman III" presented audiences with one of the most psychologically complex performances of Reeve's career, as the actor portrayed both the heroic Superman and his morally corrupted counterpart following exposure to synthetic kryptonite engineered by the film's villains. The performance culminated in the celebrated junkyard battle between Superman and Clark Kent, a sequence widely regarded by fans as one of the franchise's defining moments and a showcase of Reeve's versatility in the dual role.
The offering is expected to draw considerable attention from collectors of Hollywood memorabilia, Superman enthusiasts and film historians when bidding opens. With Christopher Reeve's enduring legacy continuing to resonate more than four decades after the film's release, the costume represents a rare opportunity to acquire an authentic artifact from one of the most influential portrayals of the Man of Steel in cinematic history.

"Supergirl" is a bold but uneven expansion of the DC Universe that shifts away from the hopeful tone of Superman in favor of a darker, more emotionally fractured cosmic adventure. Directed by Craig Gillespie, the film follows Kara Zor-El as she navigates a hostile universe shaped by loss, survival, and reluctant responsibility. While its ambition and visual imagination stand out, the film struggles at times to balance intimate character storytelling with large-scale space opera spectacle.
At the center of the film is Milly Alcock’s performance as Kara, which serves as its strongest element. Her version of Supergirl is hardened by trauma and isolation, yet still capable of humor, compassion, and strength when needed. Even when the screenplay feels rushed or uneven, Alcock’s performance maintains emotional consistency and helps establish Kara as a distinct hero within the DC Universe rather than a derivative of Superman.
The story is emotionally anchored by Ruthye Marye Knoll, played by Eve Ridley, whose quest for vengeance after the murder of her father by Krem of the Yellow Hills drives much of the narrative. Krem, portrayed by Matthias Schoenaerts, is a grounded but somewhat underdeveloped antagonist whose cruelty propels the journey but lacks deeper complexity. The film also takes a notable tonal shift when Krypto is largely removed from the story early on, leaving Kara and Ruthye in a more isolated and somber narrative space.
Visually, Supergirl is consistently striking, with imaginative alien worlds and strong production design that help establish a distinctive cosmic identity. Jason Momoa’s Lobo adds bursts of chaotic energy, but is used sparingly to avoid overshadowing Kara’s arc. Despite occasional pacing issues and uneven action, the film delivers a meaningful emotional conclusion that emphasizes consequence, resilience, and the difficult distinction between vengeance and justice, ultimately earning a solid but imperfect 3.5 out of 5 stars.

WaterTower Music is proud to announce the release of Supergirl (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), featuring the original score composed by Claudia Sarne for DC Studios' Supergirl, in theaters now from Warner Bros. Pictures. The digital soundtrack release is available now at Amazon.com, with the 2LP vinyl and CD versions available for pre-order soon.
Composer Claudia Sarne had this to say on creating the music for Supergirl: "Scoring Supergirl has been a wild fever dream. I particularly connected to the messiness and complexity of her as a character and loved the range that the film demanded. The opportunity to go from dirty synth bass lines and sequences to big thematic orchestral pieces and mournful solo piano cues has been an incredible ride. Craig asked for music that would speak to the emotional life of the characters, from Ruthye's heartbreak and idealism, Kara's devastation and rebelliousness, Lobo's nihilism, and the terror of Krem; all bound together around the love story between Kara and Krypto."
Mutant, in partnership with WaterTower Music and DC Studios, is proud to present the premiere physical release of Claudia Sarne's original score to Supergirl. The release features artwork by Bilquis Evely and is pressed on 2x 140gm color vinyl with a UV-printed D-side. Also available on CD.
