47 Years Later, Superman's Hypno Glasses Are Canon. Again
Briefly

The new DCU Superman movie uses 'Hypno Glasses' that employ Kryptonian technology to create a less recognizable image of Clark Kent. This concept was drawn from Superman #330, where Clark's glasses are made of Kryptonian plexiglass that amplifies a constant 'super hypnosis.' This hypnosis causes people to perceive him as frailer and less attractive. The original storyline, titled 'The Master Mesmerizer of Metropolis,' highlights how Clark manipulates his appearance through these glasses, presenting a humorous take on identity and perception in superhero narratives.
