How Man of Steel Paid Tribute to Action Comics #1

I love Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel. Despite the internet rallying against them as if it were a Star Wars Prequel and they it makes them feel cool for bashing it, we’ve written a lot about how great the initial movie in the DC Cinematic Universe is. We reviewed it when it came out, then explained why it’s the best Superman movie yet, and then pointed out why the haters are completely wrong.

Now and awesome video has hit YouTube giving side-by-side comparisons displaying exactly how Man of Steel paid tribute to Superman’s very first appearance in the comics. For those who like to claim that Man of Steel is nothing like the comic books, this is some strong evidence that they’re wrong.

Here’s the video that just hit YouTube this weekend. It’s a good education for those who are unfamiliar with how the movie referenced the source material.
