These Images of How Superheroes Have Changed Are Rather Scary

Last Updated on 2023-04-27 , 1:26 pm

When we talk about superheroes, all we think about is how cool and sleek they look on the big screen. However, this is definitely not how they look like in the past. Their pictures in the past will probably give you either a shock, or a good laugh.

Now you know why superhero movies didn’t take the world by storm in the past!

Superman

We have always known that Superman wears his underwear on the outside but this picture from 1948 still amuses us due to how comical he looks with that oversized underwear and that awkward pose.

Thor

The Thor we know of today is strong and steady but the Thor from 1978 looked a little feminine and probably comical with those furs and threads!

Hulk

It is incredible how the hulk from 1978 even had green hair and looked a little stout. In fact, anyone can be the old hulk as long as he’s willing to dye his entire body, including da hair, green.

Fantastic Four

I have to say that this picture of the Fantastic Four in 1994 looked like a rather cute family photo.

Wonder Woman

The Wonder Woman of 1975 certainly looked more kiddy with her red and blue cloth outfit, like it was designed by a bored student in a fashion school, whereas the outfit of Wonder Woman of 2016 resembles armours worn in ancient Greece and Rome.

Doctor Strange

Somehow, these two look a little alike and even the costumes with a red cloak. The only three differences? Benedict Cumberbatch, Benedict Cumberbatch and Benedict Cumberbatch.

Iron Man

To be honest, the Iron Man in 1977 simply looked like an alien and thank you to whoever created the red metallic costume for current-day Iron Man. In fact, anyone can be an Iron in 1977 by putting a rubbish bin on top of himself. What were they thinking?

Joker

It is funny how the Joker from 1966 painted his moustache white because he was unwilling to shave it but I must say this Joker looked really fitting for the role.

Nick Fury

The one from 2012 looks a little tougher and more ready to fight. The one from 1998 looks like a form teacher who’s hard on the outside, and soft on the inside. #justsaying

Or maybe…he’s just a shape-shifter? #OMG

Spiderman

The Spiderman from 1977 will probably give nightmares to people rather than impress people, because of his legs. It’s skinny jeans pants!

Batman

The Batman outfit from 1943 looked like a Halloween costume gone wrong.
