Okay, I feel the need to speak up, but your posts on this matter have a very, very unstated presumption: that differences from the comic version are *mistakes* that need to be *fixed*. A difference is just that: a difference. Its only a problem if its actually *problematic*: doesn't look good at all, has practical physical problems, or detracts from efforts to create a distinct image. "Is not identical to the comic" is not a problem, anymore than the various Iron Man armors not looking like their comic versions are "problems".
So basically, if you want to talk about desirable changes, please, put some thought into justifying them. *Why* would a white background emblem be better? *Why* would lightning shaped piping on the arms and legs be better?
My reasons for saying it needs changed ISN'T because "it's just not how it looks in the comics and that's how everything needs look no matter what, no matter how bad the comic book costume design", I'm saying it needs to be changed because the comic book suit is very easily and clearly a better design.
The white meshes with the suit better than having two shades of red, putting the real color red in the center of his chest is almost a slap in the face as if to say "Yeah, we know what color The Flash's shade of red is supposed to be, in fact we stuck it in the middle of his chest just to show you we know, but we're going to give you DareDevil burgundy 'leather' 'red' anyway because it's what WE WANT, we, the superior costume designers who usurp our opinions over the comic book costumes simply because we're
costume designers and they're just comic books - glorified coloring books - even though it makes about equally as little sense, OUR version is more "realistic" for no other reason than
we designed it because
we're costume designers from Hollywood". And that goes DOUBLE for making the bottom part of The Flash logo shorter than the top so it's unsymmetric.
The lightning trim on the forearms and waist looks sleek and cool and streamlined and has a very modernized simple yet complex look to it, flawless in its seamlessness and design, the complete opposite of what this new design is.
The ear pieces as they are in the comics look unique and cool, what he has in the show looks like they just half assedly tacked his chest symbol to the aides of his head, missing the point of the ear pieces entirely (they're NOT just 3D versions of his logo stuck to the sides of his head).
