Nathan Fillion’s Green Lantern Costume Comics Inspiration Explained

:0:1

Summary

Nathan Fillion's Green Lantern suit in Superman set photos is quite different from Guy Gardner's traditional DC Comics costume.
Guy Gardner and Hawkgirl's DCU uniforms share elements with Mr. Terrific's comic book costume, which hints at a possible superhero team that may be the Terrifics or an early version of Maxwell Lord's Justice League International.
Guy Gardner may wear a more traditional Green Lantern suit when he's fighting independently, and the other Green Lanterns may wear their own cosmic jumpsuits.

Action-packed Superman set photos reveal Nathan Fillion's DCU Green Lantern suit, which looks surprisingly different from Guy Gardner's traditional costume from the comics. New details about James Gunn's Superman surface as filming continues, from the apparent confirmation of Krypto the Superdog to a first glimpse at the main heroes' official DCU costumes. Apart from David Corenswet's Superman, the metahumans Mr. Terrific, Hawkgirl, Metamorpho, and Guy Gardner have been spotted on set. However, only one of them is wearing a comic-accurate costume.
In DC Comics lore, Guy Gardner is Oa's first choice for Earth's Green Lantern, replaced by Hal Jordan seemingly by chance. After years of waiting for his opportunity to shine while Hal Jordan and John Stewart protected the Earth, Guy earned his right to wield the power ring. However, Hal Jordan and John Stewart kept upstaging Guy, which exacerbated his volatile personality. Guy Gardner has continued to be a hero since then, however, becoming one of the Guardians of the Universe' best soldiers and a respected former member of the Justice League. Now, the DCU is adapting Guy Gardner to live-action with an interesting twist.
Nathan Fillion's Green Lantern Costume Draws Inspiration From Guy Gardner's Comics Design Guy Gardner's DCU Uniform Shares One Major Element With His Comic Book Costume

Superman set photos show Nathan Fillion's Guy Gardner wearing a white and black uniform with green stripes and the Green Lantern logo on his shoulder. This is a big departure from Guy Gardner's all-black jumpsuit with a puffy, collared, green leather vest. However, the Superman team jacket's leather material does bear a resemblance to Guy Gardner's iconic vest. Guy Gardner has worn several costumes in the comics, and most of them have included a leather jacket, often oversized and with a large popped collar.
Why Nathan Fillion's Green Lantern Costume Is So Different To The Comics Guy Gardner May Be Wearing A Superhero Team Uniform Not Connected To The Green Lanterns Close Guy Gardner's suit seen in the Superman set photos doesn't have a direct counterpart in the comics. However, Guy's suit looks almost identical to Hawkgirl's and Mr. Terrific's. The only difference is that Guy Garner's stripes are green while Hawkgirl's are gold and Mr. Terrific's are red. This similarity between their costumes suggests that all three heroes — and Metamorpho, who's played with motion-capture — are an official team at this point in the DCU's Gods and Monsters chapter, and that Guy Gardner wore his original Green Lantern suit before joining or co-founding the team.
Superman's new superhero team might be the DCU's version of the Terrifics — DC's response to Marvel's Fantastic Four.
Curiously, the team seems to be wearing uniforms inspired by Mr. Terrific's costume, which looks like an exact adaptation of the hero's comic book look. Therefore, Superman's new superhero team might be the DCU's version of the Terrifics — DC's response to Marvel's Fantastic Four. The original Terrifics line-up is composed of Mr. Terrific, Metamorpho, Phantom Girl, and Plastic Man, but the DCU seems to be replacing the latter two with Guy Gardner and Hawkgirl. This possibility is supported by the appearance of a Stagg Enterprises logo on the Superman set. In the comics, Stagg Enterprises is owned by Mr. Terrific's boss and Metamorpho villain Simon Stagg.
