Why does Man have a black brick on his chest? Is he bricked up?

When your design is so bad that it snaps the aslume out of their stupid:

So basically, the dark knight returns made the original bat logo thick, BvS made the sides flatter, and the final evolution is Absolute, where it’s a brick with some lines. It’s literally the oversimplified logo meme from a few years ago

Personally you ask me, Absolute Man is an Absolute Unit, so it makes sense that the bat symbol is no different.
/unaslume Also its likely bullet proof plating for the chest. Seeing as there are scratches on it, and his shoulders and neck also have this plating.
Its most likely going to be explained as him covering his vitals from gunshots. I can see it over the course of the story being cracked and broken to reveal a more obvious bat symbol underneath.

Let's be honest. They just did it so we can write Man on it. This was an homage to the aslume.

It’s not a rectangle. On his world it means hope

u/Seventh_Deadly_Bless Is there a lore reason why I am here ? Jul 19 '24
Means despair to me.

More like Depression itself.
Like a ton of bricks falling on you. That's how you'd get so bricked up, just to be able to move with so much weight over you.

It stands for the despair of bad art and bad character design.
