What stained glass changes
Bold dividers that make colour blocking easy. For superhero that means thick leading lines, which holds up at ages 8+ and still reads after photocopying.
When this style is the right call
The honest trade-off with stained glass: it looks better on the wall and worse on a photocopier. Use it for one child who asked for detail, not for a class set of thirty.

About superhero pages
If a child already owns three superhero pages, the stained glass version is what stops the fourth feeling like a repeat — same subject, different demands on the hand. Worth knowing while you colour: Superman first appeared in 1938 in Action Comics. Capes are a comic invention, not a historical garment. The superhero genre grew from pulp magazines of the 1930s.
Colouring tips
Work from the largest area to the smallest and leave fine detail for last so it does not smudge. With thick leading lines, a fineliner gives the cleanest edge; coloured pencil is more forgiving and easier to correct.
Printing notes
A4 and US Letter both fit the same layout. For classroom sets, print one master and photocopy it — photocopies hold the line weight better than a second print run.
Questions
Is the stained glass version harder to colour?
It changes line weight and detail density, not the subject. Ages 8+ are a rough guide; anyone who prefers thick leading lines will get on fine with it.
What paper should I print a superhero page on?
Ordinary 80 gsm copy paper is fine for crayon and pencil. Use 120 gsm or heavier for marker pens, and print at 100% scale so line spacing stays correct.
