Supes grew it when he came back from the dead; could be just cause they were in style (well, not really) or more literally because he'd been in a pod regenerating his life force or whatever for months and just hadn't had a haircut in a while, then just kept it for that rugged Ka-Zar manly man sort of look. (At the time I also got the impression it was DC's version of changing his look in an ever so tiny way without really changing his costume or trademarked image, cause it's sort of a comics tradition to tweak a costume slightly - but not too much - when a major storyline change happens for a character, like, say, coming back from the dead)
As for the cosmic universe Egg from Busiek's stories, good question, I'd forgotten about that....time will tell if DC forgot about it too or if it will come into play in Infinite Crisis. Certainly, no one in the DCU has mentioned it since Busiek's story arc in the monthly JLA book, to my knowledge. |
