So after finally coming across the Christopher Reeve-inspired Superman char for MUGEN, and experimenting with some cheap palette swaps, a twisted idea came to me, kinda like the Johnny Cage "movie pack" I did a while back (which I need to redo after the Photobucket cataclysm). The gimmick, of course, is that the original Superman film series continued, with some additional villains from the comics.
Given that these are supposed to be movies from the 1980s/early 1990s, the lazy palette swaps actually work, looking like the cheap effects we likely would have seen from future movies, given how SUPERMAN III and SUPERMAN IV turned out.
And so I give you...
