The 8 best (and 6 worst) Arrowverse suits
Cyborg Superman
On the surface, Cyborg Superman might be a bit of a cheat entry considering he never really had a suit, but that right there is more than enough grounds for including him. Yes, it’s great that Supergirl followed through on its adaptation of Hank Hensaw after the Martian Manhunter reveal, but the story itself was let down by the uninteresting character and the poor design.
In the source material, Hank goes insane after the loss of his loved ones due to a solar flare caused by Superman. As a result, he creates a cybernetic body that is identical to Superman and transfers his consciousness into it.
None of that comes into play in Supergirl‘s adaptation. Here, he was simply a modified Hank – and by “modified”, we mean Hank Henshaw but with a metal disk on his face. Okay, maybe that’s a bit extensive, as he did initially have some convincing CGI to highlight his metal endoskeleton when he debuted in season 2. However, every time he returned after that, he had an awkwardly large metal plate strapped to his head (presumably for budgetary reasons).
Aside from the fact that there was no reason for him to be called Cyborg Superman, the bad design and uninteresting character just made him a complete miss on all fronts.
Verdict: WORST
