Ever since reports came out about Henry Cavill‘s conflicting schedules for the production of Mission: Impossible 6 and reshoots for Justice League, fans have been in a frenzy. Why? Well, it all has to do with a mustache.

Cavill grew out a mustache for his role in Mission: Impossible 6, and the actor is not allowed to shave that mustache while that film is in production. To accommodate, Warner Bros. will use special effects to take out Cavill’s mustache of the new Justice League footage.
This has caused quite a stir among the internet as many fans clamor for WB to leave the mustache alone. Professional comic artists have even taken to providing their own renditions of a mustached Superman.
All in all, it’s provided some hilarious responses among people who believe the Man of Steel should have some facial hair in the new movie. While Warner Bros. is unlikely to succumb to the fan pressure, the fans have made some amazing images.
Cavill himself even got in on the action with a good Instagram post:
