I like this outfit. It maintains the Kryptonian nods to you-know-who, while freeing him up to be his own person.

Now, I will go on a tangent here. In my opinion, not exactly his own person, but following on the footsteps of another. Kallark seems to be stuck in the role of another gladiator: General Maximus Decimus Meridius, had he survived when Commodus fell. The political aftermath and the dealing with enemies and allies alike, and how delicate everything is. And to hear that the Shi'ar are in civil war again (as Vulcan came to power) it really sets up interesting political intrigue in future Marvel cosmic issues.

Would Maximus take up the role, if Gladiator doesn't accept it? Ronan? One of the Royal Family?
