"It's not an S. It's my family's coat of arms: The House of El". Iconic words spoken by both Superman and Supergirl during their on-screen appearances, as they proudly sported their iconic uniforms.

The Kryptonians have been a part of the pop-culture landscape for decades, with the Man of Steel starting it all with his comic book debut all the way back in 1938. Since then, he has gone on to become a legend, with appearances on television, in movies, books, video games, and just about all forms of media. He's that popular and that Super.

One of the things that makes Superman stand out from the crowd is his iconic S symbol - or, as we just highlighted with that quote from Supergirl - the House of El symbol on his suit. It inspires hope and love, ensuring that the Man of Steel will always respect his family's legacy while fighting for truth, justice, and a better tomorrow.

Clark Kent doesn't just wear that suit in the comics, though. He has brought it with him in his many live-action appearances on both the big and small screens. But which iterations of it captured the triumph and hope of Superman's suit the best? Which ones stood the test of time, and which ones missed the mark a little?

Let's rank them all and find out. Up, Up and Away.
