What’s Cool About This Doomsday Design?
Honestly, we’ve already seen dozens of concept arts for what Doomsday could look like in Batman v Superman. However, this one is definitely worth showcasing, as concept artist Jerad S. Marantz did an incredible job with this version of Doomsday, which is its own live-action adaptation of the character. It’s also a pretty fitting ode to Doomsday’s comic book counterpart. What’s cool about this design is that way it invokes Michael Shannon’s General Zod look from Man of Steel.

It was Zod’s body that was manipulated by Lex Luthor to create Doomsday. This version of the creature looks like it’s body is mimicking the space suits of Krypton that Zod and his team wore. This would’ve been a cool thematic way of having Superman’s betrayal of Zod in Man of steel come back to haunt him.
