Rubie's Superman Clark Kent Glasses Standard

Product Information

However, an interesting aspect of the introduction of the Glass character is one of the partial origins for the character. Cast alongside Teri Hatcher as Lois Lane (who went on to be cast as Desperate Housewife, Susan Mayer), was actor Dean Cain, who played a sexier, 90s hunk of a Superman and Clark. She also informs young Clark that the two of them came up with the idea together for a dress code for work at the planet to separate his two identities.

They were the perfect glasses for a typical 1950's journalist and helped him to blend in with his fellow reporters. Gerard sold his glasses to a collector who has generously taken photos attached below of the original screen used glasses. Maybe at the time, at the dawn of the 80s, his glasses too would have worked as an extension of his playing of Clark’s geeky character but now, in a world of post-geek chic, in a world post one - or is it two now?As for the design, The classic square Clark Kent glasses frames have slightly rounded edges and a saddle bridge that is sophisticated and distinct, perfect for a bold and confident look. The glasses’ material also came with another benefit in that they are indestructible, like the man himself. We just think that, from Reeves to Routh, the actors that have played Superman have always looked that little bit sharper, better looking, more super-stylish behind a pair of specs as Clark Kent, the supposedly bumbling alter ego, than squeezed into a Super-Suit. In Smallville's continuity, It appears as though Lois Lane is partly responsible for helping Clark Kent create his mild-mannered reporter disguise at the Daily Planet.

Man of Steel actor Henry Cavill plays our hero as a grittier, darker character and it is channeled through Clark Kent as well. When Superman goes back to being Clark Kent, eyeglasses are part of his persona no matter where he goes. Images were shown in three categories – pairs of faces that wore glasses, images where neither wore glasses, or only one image wore glasses. As the episodes go by, you’ll also see Clark Kent in a sleek pair of browline glasses with tortoiseshell upper rims. For the first time in cinematic history, Clark Kent adorned his signature thick-rimmed glasses which quickly became synonymous with the super hero's alter ego.

Although we're not presenting you with horn-rimmed glasses, the Euphoria Gold eyeglasses will give you a similar look to the man of steel's glasses. Unless you’ve been under a rock for the last pop culture century, then you probably know that all three of these names refer to the same heroic guy: Superman. In the movies, the superhero gets his first pair of glasses from his dad (see: Man of Steel), which seems pretty ordinary.
