Batman Vs Superman: 7 Things You Need To Know About Cyborg
4. His Appearance In The Comics Has Changed Drastically Over The Years
Any comic book fan will tell you that over the course of thirty-plus years a character will have his or her share of costume changes (remember 1990s mullet Superman?) Since Cyborg has numerous robotic parts, his form has undergone numerous upgrades over the last three decades. Though Cyborg's silver form is his most familiar, there have been numerous variations on this form in both style and size. At one point Cyborg was infused with alien technology and he became Cyberion, an unrecognizable digital robot-creature. That form didn't last long, and Cyborg's next body was a gold liquid-metal form not unlike the T1000 in Terminator 2. Cyborg's teammates even found a way in which this version of Cyborg could morph into his human Vic Stone form. He also briefly wore a gold version of his classic form. Cyborg returned to a bulkier version of his classic silver look in 2002 and has looked that way ever since in the comics with slight modifications to his overall form. However, today's Cyborg design features noticeably less "human" skin than his original design. While Cyborg will likely be portrayed in some variation of his familiar silver body in Batman vs. Superman, it'll be interesting to see exactly what version of Cyborg's body we will see in the movie universe.
