With only a month and a few days before we get to see the version of Zack Snyder's Justice League, a sneak peek of the new look of Superman has been revealed in a snippet posted by Justice Con on YouTube.

One of the things that didn't make the cut to the 2017 Justice League is the Black Suit of Superman featuring the Man of Steel in his all-black suit which first appeared in the 1993 Reign of Supermen. It is one of the personal choices of Zack Snyder to give Superman a whole new look, different from the classic red and blue we are all familiar with.

In the snippet posted, Superman finally meets Alfred who was working on a car when he heard a sonic boom nearby. Superman enters the scene in his fine new black suit saying "I'm assuming you're Alfred," and the butler was left in awe.

The Black Suit of Superman is also known as the Last Son of Krypton's black suit, and Snyder himself admitted that he is a "very strong advocate" of the said suit of Superman. Snyder wanted Superman to have a level up with something different than that of the old classic one.

Snyder also said that the black suit of Superman would make sense because "Superman is a character notoriously who does not grow. He is like a rock and everything just smashes against him," and Snyder added that Superman, like us, had to learn about our own selves "by trying to change a thing that's unchangeable."

The Black Suit of Superman would also be playing a particular role as to time because it would let the viewers know which arc is the scene in making the suit a time delineator.

Superman's Black Suit was designed by the Superman: Man of Steel artist Jon Bogdanove which made its debut in Action Comics #689 by Jackson "Butch" Guice.

Henry Cavill will be wearing the Black Superman Suit in Zack Snyder's Justice League alongside Ben Affleck's Batman, Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman, Jason Momoa's Aquaman, Ray Fisher's Cyborg, Ezra Miller's The Flash, Amy Adams' Lois Lane, Jeremy Irons' Alfred Pennyworth, Diane Lane's Martha Kent, Jesse Eisenberg's Lex Luthor, Ciarán Hinds' Steppenwolf, and J.K. Simmons' Commissioner Gordon.

Zack Snyder's Justice League premieres on March 18, 2021, via HBO Max.
