Superheroes have many different versions, which I found out while researching their look for this project. The comic book versions evolve through the years, and then the movie versions change them even more so they look more, erm, cool. Their costumes change. Did you know that even the parting of Superman’s hair has variations? Some pictures show it parting left, and some parting right! (I decided to part to the right, following an older version)
The different actors also lend a different look to the image – when I was making the Batmans, the shape of their chins had variations (well, it is handmade), and I thought, “This one is George Clooney. This one is Michael Keaton. This one is Val Kilmer.” (yes, I know the fact that I cited Val Kilmer so shows my age). Incidentally, that movie was showing on TV last night.
