Batman Vs Superman: 5 Reasons Cyborg Sucks More Than Aquaman
4. His Costume is Awful
Looking like a cross between Robocop, Steel and the bad robo-Superman who went rogue following the Man of Steel's death in 'The Death of Superman', Cyborg's costume is a busy, ugly mess. The New 52 has decreed that excess lines and armour are the order of the day (and also a lack of outer underpants) but Cyborg's suit takes it to the extreme. Compare that with Aquaman, who has a classic, retro-aping look, perfectly in-keeping with his royal heritage. Yellow and green should never be seen? Tell that to Aquaman, whose regal gold chainmail and green leggings have made him one of the better-designed characters in the new Justice League. It hasn't always been this way (his shirtless, hook-handed beardy phase was an ill-advised attempt at making the character more 'serious') but, largely, Aquaman has a good look. ... well, for the most part, anyway.
