The trademark Superman costume one of the most popular Mens Superhero Costumes and it consists of a blue, red, and yellow outfit, a red cape, and a capital S printed on the chest.

Superman's story begins on his home planet, Krypton. He was born Kal-El but was sent to Earth by his father, where a Kansan couple adopts and names him Clark Kent. Clark grows up confused by his superhuman abilities, but it is his powers and sense of morals that propels him to become Superman and protect those in danger. He goes on to work for the newspaper, The Daily Planet, and has a relationship with fellow reporter Lois Lane.
