I like it.  It's different, but not too different.  Certainly not like the revamped version they planned to use in Tim Burton's aborted Superman flick.

Well, they didn't use the trademarked/copyrighted/whatever version of the "S" the first four times...why expect them to do it this time around? At least they're not using the screwed up Lois & Clark version...

Something seems wrong with the bottom "fish" -- that they cut the
"tail" too much, perhaps?

Also, the 3-D effect within the swooping areas doesn't seem to flow
very well.

Despite my nitpicking on the logo, I'm really excited about the new
movie anyway. The nods to the Donner film(s) I've seen so far
suggest they are going in the right direction.

It could have been soooo much worse! (I think Bryan Singer ordered
Jon Peters locked up until the premiere.)

This is closer to the original.

Page 13

Action Comics #1 cover

As long as there is a Luthiac or a giant spider involved I'm there!

Seriously though they seem wishy washy about the chest emblem even in the 1st issue. For the most part they avoid drawing the darn thing clearly!

I hope that we won't have to deal with the yellow shapes in negative space from the logo being Kryptonian letters that happen spell out El or pictograms for House of El or anything complicated like that. "S is for Superman" is good enough for me.

Looks like we'll be getting used to another variation on the "S". Personally, I don't see what's wrong with the one used in DC's marketing and licensing.
