Regardless of stylistic choice, that is a kick-ass rendering. Reis is so much better at conveying action than Jim Lee.

I love Reis' art so much I want to take it behind the building and get it pregnant.

Superman's costume looks okay.

Otherwise, that looks horrible.

I would still rather see JSAers like Jay and Alan be on E-1, as characters that fought evil in the shadows years before the current heroes came around.

Nope. Batman looks like some sort of Elseworlds version as does Wonder Woman.

Supes... looks like something Byrne would have come up with, since it reminds me of the all yellow Vision. Also, reminds me of Victor from Hero Alliance.

Combining the cape & shield has been played with over the years, including Pre-Crisis Supergirl's last costume:

and the Eradicator in Reign of the Supermen:

Was Supergirl the first costume design to do that? I always liked Eradicator's costume, just thought it needed tweaking (no yellow Cyclops glasses, lose the black stripe).

I really liked the Eradicator's Kryptonian inspired costume.
