NOTES ON COSTUME The Man of Steel's costume has been subtly altered many times over the past 60 years. For the purposes of this three-screenplay story arc: SUPERMAN'S COSTUME: Superman's BLUE JUMPER (made from Kryptonian wonder-fabric TRIPLAR) is the same outfit worn by 2 year-old Kal-El the day his father sent him to Earth. Incredibly light, durable, and elastic under normal circumstances, upon prolonged exposure to yellow solar radiation Triplar (due to its trace residual Kryptonian organic components) becomes both nearly indestructible and incredibly elastic, almost to the molecular level. Kal-El wears his father's CRIMSON CAPE (red outside, darker inside) which Jor-El used to help wrap and pad his son into the spacecraft's seat. Jor-El also used his BELT (black with circular plain gold buckle) and several RED PLASTI-STEEL STRAPS (another remarkable Kryptonian wonder-substance, later fashioned by Kal-El into his RED BOOTS) to help secure his son into the mini-rocket's cockpit. Before sending his son to Earth, Jor-El removed the KRYPTONIAN FAMILY CREST from his chest and placed it in the ship with his son. Consisting of TWO BLACK FIGURES (representing his parents Jor and Lara) against a RED DIAMOND background (the symbol of the House of El); it is frequently mistaken for an "S" by most people from Earth.
