The first image of Brandon Routh suiting up as the Man of Steel in The CW's upcoming Arrow-verse crossover has arrived. In the five-part Crisis on Infinite Earths event, the Legends of Tomorrow star will appear as a version of Superman inspired by the Kingdom Come storyline.

　　Routh first teased his playing this role at San Diego Comic-Con, but this is the first time we've actually seen him in the costume. That said, it's not his first time playing Superman. He previously played the character on the big screen in 2006's Superman Returns.
