That is a fact!
If I had to draw Zod?
All black with a goatee and greasy hair. Maybe a Z which makes no sense that Zod's alien house symbol is a Z.



We didn't get a proper Zod until 2006. Let that sink in. Oh we got numerous iterations of Zod but they weren't a definitive Zod. We've had fake phantom zone Zods, alternate universe, and russian born Zod's. But we didn't get a proper General Zod until 2006.

Even then the consistency was that he had a goatee. He had a new uniform in every new encounter with Superman.

Before the films, Zod was a minor forgettable villain. I'm surprised Donner went with this guy(or maybe that made him easier to use). DC clearly didn't want a definitive one even with the Post Crisis reboot.

New52 had introduced a Zod with a uniform artists have generally stuck to. I think it's clear Man of Steel Zod influenced the new52 design.


So yeah, given the current design. Mcfarlane has made a pretty comic accurate suit.
Though they gave him little hands. I think the small head in relation to the armor is realistic but maybe they should have taken artistic liberty and pumped up the size.

Also I swear the face looks like Dylan McDermott
