Was there a deliberate effort made to make Kal-El's descendants resemble the 3 Kryptonian villains from SUPERMAN 2?
Why are they so sullen and terrifying?
Wearing the "S" and being of Superman's lineage should come with his optimism, charm, and charisma or it means nothing.

So much of who Superman is and has always been is how we relate to him. We're HAPPY to see him. When he arrives, everything is going to be okay. We trust him.
The Snyder movies failed artistically because they failed to capture the almost Christlike purity of Reeves portrayal.

I understand that these aren't "Superman", they're his offspring, but like the Snyder version of the character, I don't trust them. They look angry and menacing, like they aren't here to help and sacrifice themselves if necessary for humanity.
They're here to destroy.

Why would readers want to see themselves like that? Especially long time readers of SUPERMAN? Are we really just feeding people a skin color or gender with an S on it and hoping that's the extent of who they feel they are inside?
I worry for the future of this character.
