I really did hated the costume for Green Arrow on the show but it seems popular for some reason after a new tv show or film is made for a superhero I think to capitalize on it's look to maybe appeal to it's fans or maybe just cause the artist likes the look.
I say this because a few months ago when a Green Arrow storyline was launched called Fall of Green Arrow the promo for the cover featured Green Arrow wearing the Smallville costume
http://www.comicvine.com/green-arrow...l/105-1057351/ Even though in the actual comic book Ollie was wearing the classic Silver Age design http://www.comicvine.com/green-arrow...2/105-1164415/
I thought cool okay it was just a cover then the new Green Arrow series launched this week and it seems to be a blend of Green Arrow's eighties design and the Smallville look
And now in the animated short on Superman/Batman it looks like the same Smallville costume http://www.supermanhomepage.com/imag...alypse-DVD.jpg
It seems all the new merchandise is making use of this design and the older cool look is being phased out. I was kind of upset that they were making so many changes based on the show it's something that just bothers me since I think changes for the sake of movies and shows are short sighted. But after thinking about it maybe Green Arrow's costume doesn't bother me as much as his treatment and a few minor things on the look. I thought about it the costume it not bad just needs improvements like sleeves, a mask instead of glasses and Justin Hartley needs a goatee this last season after looking at the cover towards this week's issue Green Arrow looks cooler then if he didn't have it. Just thinking out loud?
Does anyone else think some things from the comics could improve the look on the show?
