Great work as always, emmshin! I always love a good Superman picture, and this is one fine Superman picture. The way that you show him walking on the air with a sense of purpose, how the clouds seem to part around him is just amazing. I also like your choice of showing him out over the ocean rather than, say, the Metropolis skyline.

That said, there's a couple of things that don't entirely do it for me; they're little things, but they stick out (in my mind, at least). First is the choice of costume, but that's mostly a complaint towards the New 52 look than your work. The lines on the "armor" are very difficult for even great artists to capture, and here it doesn't quite work; they look less like separate pieces of armor than they do grooves in a rubber suit.

The second and less nitpicky is the perspective. Superman's looking a little bit crooked in his walk, but the big thing is the way he seems to be walking above the Earth at an angle. It adds a kind of awkward angle to the picture, which throws me off a bit.

That said, it's still an awesome picture and one that really helps capture a little of Superman's essence. Great work!
