In this second render, Kal-El is now sporting a new hair style which really consumed some render time because it was visible in raytracing.  Also notice, his skin is no longer casting that blue tint, it is now quite normal.  That is the skin template VSS applied to the skin texture.  It not only corrected the blue tint, it also enhanced it's appearance and improved it's response to different lighting conditions.  Also, cast shadows and raytrace has been activated in the render settings.
