Oh anon...
They're BOTH pitiless psychopaths.

>>80737557

>psychopath

They should just stop putting these in comic books and comic book adaptions.

It's just a lazy way to write a two-dimensional villain and half the time psychopathy isn't even portrayed correctly. The vast majority of psychopaths are sex-obsessed drug addicts who just wander around like mindless vagabonds exploiting people for money and maybe committing the occasional rape. They aren't particularly intelligent, they aren't strategic masterminds (though they may fancy themselves such), and they don't have any real beliefs or values (i.e., their "opinions" are completely fucking dull, uninteresting, and almost universally used as a manipulation mechanism).

Anyone know if Cyborg and Green Lantern Corps are going to have cameos before Justice League Part 1?
>>
>>80737700

In fairness, the Superman with glowing red eyes shot IS typically used to show a scarier/angrier/out of control Superman in the comics. Red, glowing eyes are typically associated with demonic, inhuman entities.

I can. It just shows him as being angry, and either before/after using his heat vision. Out of context, anything can look evil when they have red eyes because red eyes usually symbolize evil.

So, basically Purple Man?

>>80737994

It's kind of an overplayed visual at this point. It's the go-to visual for any kind of angry/crazy Supes now. I'd like to see something else now and then. I'd love to see some visual parallels to Darkseid when he gets mad - cold expression, highly visible gritted teeth, more imposing physical movement. Or alternately, don't see him at all - Superman's speed is nearly on par with the Flash. If you ever seriously pissed the man off, you might not ever see more than a blue and red blur smacking you through walls and cars.

>a scarier/angrier/out of control Superman
it's a big jump from that to pitiless psychopath.

No he looks like a angry but focused Superman with his Alien nature emphasized.
Menacing doesn't equal evil.

Altho to be fair, I am probably bias as Lee Bermejo is my favorite Superman artist and he does the red eye menacing Superman better then anyone.

Not that big. Whenever Supes goes bugfuck or dictator in the comics, red eyes are usually pretty prominent. Superboy, too - the shaved head, embracing his Luthor DNA Connor Kent? Red eyes constantly. Superboy Prime? Tons of shots of him with the toasty oculars. Not so much when Supergirl goes bad, but I think there's a bit of an unconscious bias against depicting women in Western comics at "pitiless psychopath" level, so I'm not surprised there.

All those saying it's just the red eyes, look at this, Trump with red eyes doesn't automatically look evil. Supes in the OP looks legit like a relentless psycho, not only because of the red eyes but the facial expression, body language, etc.

Yeah, Superman looks evil as fuck up there. He's SUPPOSED to in order to continue the retarded "But in a real world he'd be a threat and ambiguous" narrative from the lat movie.

But rather than just admit this we gotta do this song and dance crap. Because to entertain any other idea might mean admitting that this wasn't a great direction to build the character on.
