It's my recollection that Superman's logo is on his chest, not his cape.
Here is my alteration of your  "It would take a superhero to fit the
jigsaw of life together."

          .-.
         (   )
     _____) (___
    (          /
     \.-.     (_.-.
     _   |         |
     )`-' __  |`._/
   .'    (  )  \  
   `- m`.'  `-m' 
     /|       |\
     \`.  _  .'/
      \ )(_)(_/ 
       \ \    `.  
       |  )     \ 
        `(       )
         )\     (
        / ,\.-.  \
       /,    \`='
      / )    ( \
     /,       ` \     AsH/ejm
  _ -_         _-`_


As to the logo, I can't seem to improve upon yours in only two lines.

Here are my tries:

5 lines:
 _______
/('___`'\
\ ,___))/
  \ _ /
    V

4 lines:
        __
      / (` \
       \,)/
        \/

3 lines:
       ___
      /(` \
       \)/

2 lines:

 /5\
  V
