Former Superman Dean Cain was blasted as “disgusting” after making “cruel” remarks about “Supergirl” newbie Milly Alcock’s appearance.

The “Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman” alum, 56, took to X Sunday to reshare a photo of Alcock, 26, dressed up as Supergirl but with several ear piercings.

“Wait … if Supergirl’s skin is bulletproof, how does she have ear piercings?” the user wrote, as Cain responded with a thinking face emoji.

The user then followed up with a photo of Cha-Ka from the 1970s series “Land of the Lost,” writing, “And why does she look like this guy?”

“Dang it … I laughed,” Cain candidly commented back.

“you are shallow and cruel,” one critic wrote in response to the actor.

“Some ‘Superman’ you turned out to be, huh?” another added, as a third chimed in, “You are old enough to be her father and have a big voice. Maybe don’t empower her bullies.”

“What a shame, I used to admire you,” a fourth wrote.

“How unprofessional and disgusting of you to say that,” another agreed.
