Superman Cruise Ship

A friend on a European vacation was recently in Rome and spotted this interesting cruise ship.

He didn't say who owns the ship, but it features a familiar comic book character.

UPDATE:

I did some checking and found this information on the ship:

MS Athara ferry is a Ro-Ro passenger vessel owned and operated by the Italian company TIRRENIA Navigazione. The ship has a max capacity of 2700 passengers and 820 cars (or 69 trucks). The vessel was launched in 2003 and currently operates on the Italy-Sardinia ferry route Genoa-Olbia-Arbatax (crossing time 10 hours). On rotation schedule, the boat also serves the routes Civitavecchia--Cagliari and Civitavecchia-Olbia-Arbatax, with crossing times 5,5 hours (day crossings) and 7 hours (night crossings).

Other ships by Tirrenia feature DC Comics super-heroes such as Batman and Wonder Woman.
