It wasn't an "S" at all, but a Kryptonian symbol that served as a family crest for the -El family. In December 1978, "Superman: The Movie" provided a new explanation for the "S" emblem.

super man" so, if Ma Kent designed the emblem, it is coincidence that ultimately earns him the name-he-travels-under. Strangely, the first man rescued by Superman refers to him as "this. Ma Kent (known in this episode for some reason as Sara Kent) asks if Clark remembered to bring the costume she made for him out of the blankets he was wrapped in when she and Pa Kent found him.

19, 1952) - the introductory episode of "The Adventures of Superman" - Clark's adoptive mother takes Clark to the Smallville bus depot after Pa Kent's death so he can move to Metropolis and start being super full time.

This is consistent with the explanation that Clark designed the emblem later in life - and also explains why Beppo the Super Monkey has no "S" on his costume either since he began as Superbaby's contemporary.Įven if you didn't read comic books, by 1952, anyone with a TV could have told you that Ma Kent made Clark's costume and therefore presumably designed the "S" emblem. However, the Superbaby costume has no "S" on it. The same blankets are used to fashion Superboy's costume. These stories explain that Martha Kent, Superbaby/boy/man's adoptive mother, sewed together Superbaby's play suit out of the blankets that accompanied baby Kal-El in his rocket ship to Earth. Subsequently, mostly in Superboy comics, baby Clark Kent has adventures as Superbaby. Superboy muddies the waters a bit when he declares that he "chose" the "S" emblem - not designed or drew but chose - "to stand for Superboy, and later Superman - it will also mean Saving lives, Stopping crime, and giving Super-aid wherever it's needed." It can be assumed that Superboy's use of the word "chose" can be attributed to an error in word choice, rather than an attempt to claim someone else designed the "S". In "More Fun Comics #101," the narrative explained that Clark "secretly fashion a colorful red-and-blue costume - and thus born - Superboy." Though the "S" emblem isn't mentioned explicitly, it can be assumed that its design was part of the "secret fashion" that Clark did in making that first Superboy costume. The earliest comic references seem to indicate that Clark designed the "S" logo along with the costume itself. While the comic book explanation for the "S" differed from the movie's explanation for most of the 67 years of Superman's adventures, Mark Waid's recent revamp of Superman's origin in "Superman: Birthright" tied the "S" to Krypton, effectively unifying the different media interpretations for the "S". Singer's film will fit within a "vague history" of the 1978 movie's plot.

But how do the comics, movies, and TV shows explain the origin of the "S" emblem - is it an extraterrestrial symbol or just something Pa Kent dreamt up while harvesting a field of poppies? As with most things concerning an eternally young 70-year old character, the answer is that it depends who you ask.įor instance, ask Bryan Singer, the director of 2006's "Superman Returns" and he'll tell you what he recently told Wizard Magazine in its Spring 2005 Mega Movie issue - that the Superman suit "he (Supey) wears is a remnant of that world (Krypton)." Singer apparently bases that opinion on 1978's "Superman: The Movie" in which the costume is Kryptonian fabric and the "S" emblem is a family crest worn by Superman's biological father, Jor-El. Well sure, Superman creators Jerry Siegel and Joseph Shuster created the "S", the spit-curl, and even the red undies. But who created it? Who came up with that eye-catching design? Superman's "S" emblem, the stylized red S on a yellow diamond-shaped shield with the red border, is likely one of the most recognized icons in both our world and the fictional Earth-DC.
