The New Superman is My Kind of Superman

Let’s be real it’s everywhere right now. Categorized as action sci-fi movie, Superman is a super hit.

Though I love Henry Cavill and I have nothing against him, in previous Superman editions, it did not give the best impression, for it was too dark, unsmiling, lacks fun and was too serious and too introspective. I did not like it also because I had to bring my brain inside the cinema to know and feel what message the movie wants to convey.

I love the new edition of Superman because he is not a god-like untouchable symbol of perfection.  He felt like he was human. And this is one of the reasons why it worked for me.

And in the latest edition, after learning David Corenswet is the new Superman, I was excited.  I knew him as River from the Netflix series The Politician.  He did look so much like Superman in that show that the character of Ben Platt could not resist saying it in the series.

Let’s talk about other things about this movie… This movie is bright and visually colorful which resonates joy, fun and happiness. One upsetting circumstance in the past was how people especially the American media mocked the costume of the new Superman.  But after seeing the movie, I love love love the costume especially the red trunks.  For me it symbolizes that Superman is not that serious and could really be sunny, campy and fun at times – thus, personifying a real person and not somebody who is so serious and above human.

I also like this movie because it doesn’t require you to be a DC expert.  I am definitely is a proof of that.  All I knew before watching the film is that Superman is not from earth and I actually am not familiar with other semi-popular and unpopular meta-humans, superhumans and superheroes of DC comics. 

You may want to ask me what is my favorite scene of the movie? No not the big action-packed scenes, not Superman kissing Louis Lane floating on air.  It was the scene when Superman was in his fortress and he is just surrounded by his childhood memories in Kansas.  I love this scene because there was no hifalutin speech but a series of simple adorable-ness.  It was so heartwarming, it confirmed that his endearing adoptive parents are the ones that planted his moral backbone, his beautiful persona and his being a kind human being.

I love the new Superman because it is heartwarming, it made me smile, it made me happy and made me feel like a seven-year-old by again.

My Superhero Action Figure

Majority of the present male human specie – young and old – grew up playing with superhero action figures.  Every one of these dudes can gleefully recall which among these animated crusaders was their favorite.  I am part of the unfortunate, luckless and deprived minority.  I never got the chance to play with a mini-Superman, Batman or the Green Lantern.

that’s me! hahaha! had a pretty twisted set of toys yet with awesome childhood

Instead, I can clearly recall that I and my siblings would play with canned goods and variety of grocery items of Nengkoy (my mother) from her pantry storage at the second floor of our house.  We enjoyed rolling cans of Hunts pork & beans on the floor with the aim of hitting unopened plastic bottles of Jergens body lotions and Gee Your Hair Smells Terrific shampoos.  We find excitement in stacking weighty tins of Spam luncheon meats. And we adored imagining fragrant boxes of Dove and Ivory bath soaps as mini cars. 

Miniature sports figures (not the Hulk, Captain America nor other superheroes) would be so infrequent to come by because we would have to wait for the next can of Milo or Ovaltine to finish because the free promotional mini-sports figures are buried somewhere within the cans of these powdered choco drinks.

Don’t get me wrong.  I actually had a balanced and awesome childhood.  But unfortunately, I could not contribute or share a fun childhood experience when asked which among the superheroes did I grew up having as an action figure. 

But now that I am old, people would seem to start contemplating whether they had a cool childhood as I did when I dare answer such question because my reply now would no longer be a boring “none”.  It is only lately that I figured out that I actually grew up having a superhero action figure! It’s the supreme crusader in bright red imperial regalia that would beat even the chief, topnotch and paramount superhero a human animator has created.  Nowadays – though I did not played with it, I actually prayed to it – my simple answer to this question is the little Santo Niño (translation: the image of The Child Jesus).

My very own Santo Niño in green imperial regalia was gifted to me by my mom more than 25 years ago when I decided to live on my own and be independent.

Superman Ceased Wearing Briefs While A New Superhero Wears Panties

superman costumeI’m a bit disappointed when I saw on screen the changes in the Superman costume. He has gone commando (sort of) and no longer wears with those red little briefs.  But with or without the red underwear, the Man of Steel will always be my favorite superhero.

But wait.  In the midst of giving up the red briefs by the western-made superhero, a new superhero emerges from the other side of the planet.  He’s Hentai Kamen.  The eastern-made forbidden superhero!  He’s not wearing briefs but a pair of panties.

Unlike the old-fashioned and non-sense red briefs of the Superman, the panties for this Japanese superhero, I guess, would be very essential. Why?  It is used not to cover his golden balls but to actually conceal his face and his identity.

Watch this and behold the hero of Japan…

Hentai Kamen is no ordinary panty-masked hentai for he is the Hentai of Justice!

I would die and go to heaven in case a movie would be made starring the Man of Steel and Hentai Kamen.  Imagine two super powers from the east and west??? This dream of a movie will definitely give the Avengers a run for their money.

Kayanin kaya ng mga cosplayers ang kostyum ni Hentai Kamen???
