True, but there were enough visual cues to say Guy was still a part of the corp. Kyle's was just... too much. Too much black, Goofy fingerless gloves, that clam mask thing... A whole new insignia... I know they were trying to go with a complete fresh start... but Nothinga about that costume ever looked like 'Green Lantern' to me.
This one on the other hand still had the traditional mask and a more traditional... 'shape'... while still being it's own thing. I kind of dug that suit for Kyle.
Though now 30 years later, its' hard to see Kyle in anything but his original suit/mask... but It never screamed 'Green Lantern' to me.
