Description I am tired and it's late, so I won't say much about this work.

I wanted to do something completely different than the Spider-Man posters I have mixed feelings about. I tried to do as professional style poster as I could, to get to the level that a lot of posters are here in DeviantART. The Spider-Man posters were very stylized and not very professional looking and as I said I'm not sure what I think about them. It took two hours plus to make this poster. As always, I'm glad to hear your opinions and feelings, so please express them with a comment!

I think the story of this possible movie is pretty much summed up in the tagline. The movie would tell mostly about Superman living on earth after mankind has gone extinct by some way or another, the tagline hinting to nuclear holocaust. It would be cool if the concept of Superman living forever (if he doesn't do suicide with kryptonite I guess) was explored, how he outlives all his loved ones and even humanity and ultimately is alone with everyone he cared about being dead.

I thought that meant Superman was the last being from Krypton, and he was carrying their memory.

Hello, to be honest with you, my idea for this is that Superman is the last man on Earth. Of course he'll still be the last man of Krypton as well. In my concept he has become the last man of a planet two times, and I tried to capture the tragedy of that in this poster.

Thanks. The people at Comicbookmovie seemed to hate the idea with a passion, but I'm glad to hear you like the idea. Each to their own!

Hahah, yeah, that is a bit crazy.. Although I fleshed out the idea as you can read from Superman Salvation II. There are still human survivors left.

I wonder which will be the villain in this story?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

misterhessu In reply to mandarinmannen [2010-10-30 08:21:07 +0000 UTC]

Good question, I haven't thought about that much Well, what I was thinking is that Lex Luthor would organize a nuclear war. This would be because he wants to finally break Superman, by destroying humanity, as Superman loves and wants to protect humans. Luthor would escape to space himself. Luthor's main motivation to me has always been destroying Superman, so he would take it to the extreme and destroy all mankind.. Just to finally reach his goal.

Yeah, I know it's far-fetched, but it's all I got..

mandarinmannen In reply to misterhessu [2010-11-02 11:06:40 +0000 UTC]

I thaught it should be Lex Luthor again too! But it would be interesting to see another villain in in the sequel like Brainiac, Bizzaro, Parasite, Toyman, Metallo, Livewire or Lobo?

But I think it would be Lex Luthor.

misterhessu In reply to mandarinmannen [2010-11-02 11:37:53 +0000 UTC]

Haha, to be honest I'm so noob with my Superman knowledge that Lex Luthor is the only villain I know properly from Superman's villains. I haven't read many Superman comics.. But I sure would be interested in seeing some other villains in the movie! I just don't know them well.

I think Darksied would be a good villain and he has the motivation to do it.

something similar to this happens in DC 1Million. After everyone superman cares for dies, he flies into the sun and lets the world take care of itself, only to return from his self imposed exile when the ultimate enemy appears.

misterhessu In reply to 12thlord [2010-10-29 14:00:10 +0000 UTC]

Oh, sounds cool.. I haven't really read too many Superman comics. But he has very interesting qualities as a character, and I loved The Four Seasons from Jeff Loeb and Tim Sale. ^^

Thanks for the information, it's cool to know DC has tried this path!

Oh, and cool Death quote, it's probably from the Neil Gaiman's character?

Yes the quote is from Death of the Endless. Brief Lives, if I'm not mistaken.

Thank you very much! Very very much! I really appreciate it when people take time to comment on my works!

You are right.. Actually I heard this idea floating on a Finnish forum, this is what I know: apparently Mark Millar has planned on doing a Superman trilogy with probably the last movie being Superman after humanity has gone extinct.. I really loved the idea, so I ran with it!

And yeah, Hollywood will NEVER DO THIS..
