    Default Cyborg: Human or Alien?

    Simple.enough. Should Vic's tech be home-grown or of alien origin?

    Start out as home grown, but he can upgrade it over the years.

    based on the lat 7 years ... alien. Also easier to part him on par with the rest of the League and would eliminate the stupid hacking and mutilation DC writers continually put him through

    This. While writers seem to can't help themselves, his tech getting alien should make him less susceptible to being mutilated and I think if he wasn't new god tech it would be harder to justify his place on the league. Plus if his tech was human based he'd be more likely to get wrecked everytime they face an alien with tech just to showcase how powerful they are.
    THE SIGNAL (Duke Thomas) is DC's secret shonen protagonist so I made him a fandom wiki

    also, check out "The Signal Tape" a Duke Thomas fan project.

    currently following:
    • DC: Red Hood: The Hill
    • Marvel: TBD
    • Manga (Shonen/Seinen): One Piece, My Hero, Dandadan, Jujutsu Kaisen, Kaiju No. 8, Reincarnation of The Veteran Soldier, Oblivion Rouge, ORDEAL, The Breaker: Eternal Force

    I say both. His dad used tech from the Red Room and the Mother Box upgrades him to basically a god of technology. The Red Room contained alien and human tech, so both.

    If alien tech were indestructible or unhackable, the League would fail every time they went up against an alien threat. Batman has beaten alien enemies with earth technology.

    point being alien tech should be hard to figure out than an iPhone or a PC which is the equivalent of how Victor is some times treated with the ease and which he's taken out of commission.

    It's also easier to digest his transformation and survival of his human anatomy.

    This is how I feel. I feel like his tech should represent Humanity's potential for technology and their innovation and other tech can be added and adapted by Vic as time goes by.

    Alien tech wouldn't make him less susceptible to the old fallback of getting ripped apart and hacked. A good writer can only do that. He's already a Mother Box and, supposedly, other alien tech and he's still being undersold.

    His tech should be of alien origin. There's something interesting about Vic being made out of tech that he doesn't understand.
    Imagine being proud to have negative traits. I can’t relate.
