What"s up with Superman's hair?

Don't get me wrong, i have nothing against superman it's just that i noticed, with the cartoons, the previous superman and now with the new one..they always have that piece of hair thing that's on the forehead..what's up with that? a symbol or something that they are the real superman and not an impostor?



What"s up with Superman's hair?

It's a carry-over from the comics. Originally, the forelock was considered a kind of rakish touch for men at the time. So in the comics of the time, Kent was always tightly buttoned up, and when he changed into Superman, he was drawn with the forelock to suggest the loosened up, slightly disheveled look that the times considered a positive thing.



It is hard to imagine nowadays that something so minor would have so much meaning, but it was not really at the time so minor.

That is a Gay Superhero thing it lets other gay Superheros know that he is a bottom.

Apart from the fact that here is a manly kinda guy who wears a blue spandex body suit with red tighties, the design is COMIC BOOK, not reality. The LOCK of hair, to the designer of the character gives him a boyish quality, a purity, an innocence, even as someone faster than a speeding bullet.



I have not seen the latest, out of deference to Mr. Reeves and his wife, but it is eerie that this new guy has adopted Chris's mannerisms, even to voice and inflections. Certainly that was by design too.



The thing I enjoy most about the character, as well as others in the genre, is that they became icons, much as Santa Claus has, and offer us alternative realities. Hopefully that doesn't relate to anyone attempting to emmulate those features, attire, or abilities, but I gotta tell ya,,,, as a kid, I did try flying off our barn roof,,,and outta no where,,,,,, Slam,,,, Kryptonite happened!!! Smiles.

Well he is stuck with it. He is unable to cut it off unless he uses Kryptonite scissors. In Smallville they tried to cut his hair once and it broke the scissors.

Also notice that in the comics that the curl is in an "s" shape and in the movies they try to keep it in an 's' shape
