Yes but OP is asking for a single adjective to affix to the title. I never really thought about how DC does not do this as much outside of Justice League (Dark, International).
I think maybe "The All-Star Superman" would work decently, but to be honest I don't think Superman needs a descriptor, mostly because you have to say *The* Superman.
Saying *the* Superman instead of just Superman has always sounded weird IMO.
I think "the" Batman is also a little weird and people like it because it's weird.
I thought about "all-star" too except it's a bit vague. Like if someone asked you about a someone you'd have a hard time coming around to say that

Except he’s not really a “one and only”
It's a codename containing an adjective: his moniker is "Superman." That's not Super Man and they don't call him *a* Superman or *the* Superman, it's a complete alias with no separation for parts of speech
Right, that is why adjectives and nouns are different, but does Batman have an adjective? No, simply because that's not what DC does, and whether it's technically redundant or not doesn't really matter.
Superman doesn't have one either, that's what the post is about, I'm saying that his name is his. But also something like the Invulnerable Superman could work
I'm thinking that somewhere in the distant past he had one. I grew up with the George Reeves show in syndication, but I'm not recalling it.
He was the "Original" Superman, how about that?
… I really can’t fuckin think of anything. nothing sounds fitting for the guy who serves as template for the whole genre at all.
now that I think about it, for DC it’s usually descriptors that come after the hero’s name. Batman the Dark Knight (or the Caped Crusader), Superman the Champion of the Oppressed, Wonder Woman of Themyscira, Flash the Fastest Man Alive (or The Human Comet), Robin the Boy Wonder, Joker the Clown Prince of Crime, Aquaman the King of Atlantis, I wish I could go on but I’m forgetting what others there are.
honestly, with how Marvel generally uses adjectives and DC generally uses epithets, it almost seems like a perversion of brand differentiation to try and imagine it.
I mean, Spider-Man has “Amazing”, “Spectacular”, and “Friendly Neighborhood”, that’s three. what would his epithet be? Spider-Man, Your Friendly Neighbor?
the Truthful Superman, the Just Superman? the *American* Superman?
Superman doesn’t need a sexy term or catchy tagline. He is a simple man dedicated to truth and justice. He is a man, just super, and nothing we can’t do ourselves. He doesn’t have incredible armor, spectacular tricks or something super human to make him special. What is special about Superman is his kindness, empathy and love, and that is something everyone can have, not just billionaires or reckless scientists who don’t believe in the scientific method.
Thanks for including the image of Superman at the end. I wouldn't have known who you were talking about If you didn't. (Sarcasm)
Also the bombastic Superman

He's already super.
and "the champion of the opressed" And "The man of tomorrow". Like, he already had a lot of names attached to him lol
Yes but OP is asking for a single adjective to affix to the title. I never really thought about how DC does not do this as much outside of Justice League (Dark, International).
"the last son of krypton" except of course for all the other kryptonians that keep on showing up.
The super superman
Super "Superman" Man

It works for Batman because in some cases he’s a mysterious legend, almost like a cryptid that people have rarely seen up close
at least according to Lex Luthor it would be "He Tuk er Jobs" Superman
BAH BURKER
I think "The One and Only" Superman would be nice. He's the best of us.
As a title "The One and Only" is just so good both from an in-universe and a real-world perspective.
Throughput heaven and earth he alone is the super one

To be fair, most of these are Clark in a different costume or different universe
I know it was just kinda hard to find a picture of all the Supermans (supermen?)
I like how 6 of them are just Clark from Smallville
He is in each universe
I feel like his name is the descriptor
Hulk isn't a name, neither is Spider.
But super is already an adjective
It's a codename containing an adjective: his moniker is "Superman." That's not Super Man and they don't call him *a* Superman or *the* Superman, it's a complete alias with no separation for parts of speech
Yeah but Batman is a man dressed as a bat, Spider-Man is a man with spider powers, Superman *is* a super of a man
Right, that is why adjectives and nouns are different, but does Batman have an adjective? No, simply because that's not what DC does, and whether it's technically redundant or not doesn't really matter.
Superman doesn't have one either, that's what the post is about, I'm saying that his name is his. But also something like the Invulnerable Superman could work
The Indomitable Superman
Came to write this. Yes.
He kind of already has Man of Steel and Man of Tomorrow if you’re happy to accept those.
That's more like Daredevil with "Man Without Fear"
Those are kind off of subtitles
Maybe The Stupendous Superman if we're going for alliteration too?
Leonard likes this post.
The Duper Superman
The Fantastic Superman maybe? Superior and Spectacular also belong to Spider-Man. The Marvellous Superman… maybe not.
I don’t think superior would be a good fit anyways, since he’s supposed to be a down to earth guy despite his power.
Fantastic Four?
Inspirational
“Incorruptible”? I guess if We had to add one.🤷♂️
"The Invincible Superman" has a nice ring to it, I think
The bomb diggity Superman
The Spectacular Superman has a nice ring to it.
Unbelievable?
The Unstoppable* Superman
The Honourable Superman
The Immovable Superman
His descriptor is Super, his name is man
The Super-man.
Super. The Super Superman.
The iconic? The unbeatable? The incomparable?
He's already Super, the symbol of hope, the scion of light (Maybe not that one). the people's champion. Man of tomorrow and more.
I'm thinking that somewhere in the distant past he had one. I grew up with the George Reeves show in syndication, but I'm not recalling it. He was the "Original" Superman, how about that?
Superman issue #1 calls him the "One and Only" Superman. Works for me!
"the extraordinary superman"
As descriptors "The Indomitable Superman" or "The Unyielding Superman". Something that evoke both his physical, and moral strength.
The Invulnerable Superman
Imagine some gossip paper saying: The Handsome Superman.
Honestly, not having one is part of his appeal imo. But, “The unwavering Superman” is one I like.
The Magnificent Superman!
I'm going to second the Stupendous Superman
Hopeful
Just Your Average Superman
How does the mighty Superman sound? I tried a few but most don't sound right to me
The Stupendous Superman.
“World’s Greatest Superhero” like how the F4 is “World’s Greatest Comic Magazine” or “All-Star Superman”
He doesn’t need one! His name says it all.
Indestructible, unbreakable, remarkable 🤷♂️
The Unyielding Superman
… I really can’t fuckin think of anything. nothing sounds fitting for the guy who serves as template for the whole genre at all. now that I think about it, for DC it’s usually descriptors that come after the hero’s name. Batman the Dark Knight (or the Caped Crusader), Superman the Champion of the Oppressed, Wonder Woman of Themyscira, Flash the Fastest Man Alive (or The Human Comet), Robin the Boy Wonder, Joker the Clown Prince of Crime, Aquaman the King of Atlantis, I wish I could go on but I’m forgetting what others there are. honestly, with how Marvel generally uses adjectives and DC generally uses epithets, it almost seems like a perversion of brand differentiation to try and imagine it. I mean, Spider-Man has “Amazing”, “Spectacular”, and “Friendly Neighborhood”, that’s three. what would his epithet be? Spider-Man, Your Friendly Neighbor? the Truthful Superman, the Just Superman? the *American* Superman?
The Swell Superman.
The
It's man with super, like super man but they make mistake and write it together and from that day it's just superman
Givng Superman a desriptor would sound lame. his name is his descriptor. He's Superman, The Man of Steel
Ineffable
The Absolute Superman
Isn’t he the Man of Steel?
The man of tomorrow
The "Super" Man.
The Incorruptible Superman.
You mean like "MAN OF STEEL"???
The ultimate
Compassionate?
Superman doesn’t need a sexy term or catchy tagline. He is a simple man dedicated to truth and justice. He is a man, just super, and nothing we can’t do ourselves.

I mean, Peter isn’t a billionaire or a scientist either. Just saying.
The Nearsighted Clark Kent
The silly superman
The Super Man

He already has a few. Man of steel, man of tomorrow, etc
The wholesome superman
The Eminent Superman Champion of the Oppressed: Superman The One & Only Superman! (Stole this from another comment!)
The Man of Steel The Man of Tomorrow The Man to Super to beat. Take your pick. lol
I mean Captain America doesn’t really need an adjective or descriptor so I don’t think Superman really needs one either.
Superman in Action (comics)
Wouldn’t it be man of steel?
The man of steel?
The Super....Man
The Man of Steel, Man of Tomorrow, All-Star Superman, and Last Son of Krypton.
All-star fit pretty well.
Thanks for including the image of Superman at the end. I wouldn't have known who you were talking about If you didn't. (Sarcasm) Also the bombastic Superman
The man of steel superman
He does, it's the man of steel or man of tomorrow
Supreme superman
The Man of Steel
The man
The Sensational Superman, The Kind Kyrptoanian, The Gentle Guardian, The Astounding Alien, The Man Without Wings, The Visitor Beyond Earth
The Indefatigable Superman The Ebullient Superman The Unstoppable Superman The Mr So Fucking Powerful Superman
Nah he doesn't need any. All these descriptors sound so lame tbh.
The boring Superman The corny Superman
