Watching Man Of Steel, it was clear the creators were keen on pulling from the whole 75 years of comic book history to craft their large-scale tale of Superman's origin. Geoff John's Superman: Secret Origin, John Byrne's Man of Steel, and J. Michael Straczynski's Superman: Earth One can all be seen as vital influencers in the origin tale between the Pa Kent-Clark relationship, the Kryptonian birthing methods, and Superman revealing himself in order to combat an alien invasion, Man Of Steel borrowed heavily from ideas and concepts from some of the modern and more popular Superman stories to tell their introductory superhero film. Where the franchise goes next is anyone's guess, but if Man Of Steel is any guide, the story won't be shy to rely on some higher-selling Superman comic storylines to bring Superman back for Part 2 of Man Of Steel. So, with that, let's check out five potential comic book adaptations for Man Of Steel 2 based on popularity in recent years as well as making sense in the reality-based world created by Zack Snyder and company in their origin.
