looks too much like superman. pre new 52's henshaw was more distinct. and that ridiculous hand is just that. ridiculous. wonder what his new origin is going to be....
No matter how you look at it history has changed! Superman has a costume change too and he was part of some major Green Lantern events too! I say events have not change but perhaps maybe the details of said events might have changed.
@kriminal: he is from the reign of the supermen storyline the aftermath of death of superman back in the early 90s. his body is made up of superman's clone dna and mechanical parts. usually he's depicted older and more menacing looking then superman. here he looks like a pretty boy in a bad halloween costume
Cyborg Superman is one of the greatest DC characters of all with such an interesting story in that all he really wants is to die, I love it. I also don't think he's had such a standard look and by that logic it doesn't matter if he changes. This is awesome! Go Hank Henshaw!
Okay, this is the first redesign I'll admit I like. Most others either suck or have so few changes I wonder why they even bothered to make said changes to begin with. This looks good to me. A pity I shan't be reading whatever he's in
Rocafort is just great. I like that suit better then Supermans, but I'm just not sure about the arm. If it's a normal arm that turns into that, then cool beans, I'm down.
@k4tzm4n, I think you're forgetting that Team 7 take place in the past like before the new 52 actually starts for everyone else. I do like the design though a little bit. I just dislike the arm because it's too big for him to be carry it along all the time.
@k4tzm4n: Well, assuming that the events of Team 7 took place years in the past, then it could be assumed that Henshaw still played that role in the Green Lantern books.
That looks sick, like really bad a**! I love the arm, it just looks so darn sinister, as somebody said. And Rocafort is the best artist in the game right. I am posting this all over the web.
@kriminal: hank Henshaw go check out his background in the search box, but be warned. He has a lot of history so I hope you got a few minutes. Interesting character tho.
Preferred his old jaw where you could see through into his mouth. Now it looks like he has a metal beard from the future. Yes, in the future we will have metal beards.
The last paragraph is spot on (except that I choose to not accept it & move on). I'm happy GL's history is continuity, but the fact that it "hosted" multiple large events that featured many other main characters shows how stupid (& confusion-inducing) the changes in the reboot were.
Personally I'm not happy that it looks like Lobdell will be doing something with the character. We all know Lobdell's run isn't anything special. It might be good to some but it's nothing unique. And a unique storyteller is needed to depict Cyborg Superman correctly. Hopefully I'll be proven wrong. And Cyborg Superman will humble Superman in a fight. That design by Rocafort looks cool though. The cybernetic bits are nicely depicted on Henshaw.
@k4tzm4n Wasn't he also in a back up in one of the more resent action comics or maybe it was superman...
it was the giant size issue any way it
retold Henshaw flying the rocket that explodes with him in it but staying behind so sups could rescue every one else and we see that Lex rigged the rocket to blow.
crap now that i think about it, it might have been Smallville digital, it was Smallville season 11 #6
