Fantastic Five: Worst Superman Costumes
If there’s one thing we’ve learned from our years on the Internet, it’s that there’s no aspect of comics that can’t be broken down and quantified in a single definitive list, preferably in amounts of five or ten. And since there’s no more definitive authority than ComicsAlliance, we’re taking it upon ourselves to compile Top Five lists of everything you could ever want to know about comics. Superman is responsible for laying the foundation for what we would come to know as the "superhero costume", so it stands to reason that every time anything about his changes; it makes headlines and gets people talking. But for a character that’s been around as long as Superman, it’d be silly not to expect him to mix it up every now and then and try on a new outfit. But they can’t all compete with his classic look.

With so much going on, many fans probably didn't realize what they missed out on: A ninja-piloted Party Wagon toy that "mutated" into a giant mecha warrior suit.

I know that not everybody is into the 'X-Men' cartoon from the 90s, and I can understand why -- there's a lot of cheesy dialogue, chopping plotting and blah blah blah. I don't care. The 'X-Men' cartoon was what got me into comics, period. I was 11 years old, and every single Saturday I had a whole ritual that involved eating chocolate chips and watching 'X-Men' and screaming bloody murder at anyon
