An excerpt from May's issue of Empire Magazine is making the rounds today, most likely because it contains the most comprehensive take on J.J. Abrams' lost Superman film from the man himself. Comic Book Movie states that the treatment was delivered to Warner Bros. in 2002, when the most impressive items on J.J. Abrams' resume were "Felicity" and "Alias." The project, called "Superman Flyby," contained a more psychological take on the hero.
"The thing that I tried to emphasize in the story was that if the Kents found this boy, Kal-El, who had the power that he did, he would have most likely killed them both in short order. And the idea that these parents would see – if they were lucky to survive long enough – that they had to immediately begin teaching this kid to limit himself and to not be so fast, not be so strong, not be so powerful."
Check out the rest of Abrams' pitch, as well as some concept art, below.

SPOILERS AHEAD.
