So, random and strange thing I just remembered from back in the day.
Back in the New52/DCYOU when Cyborg "could" fly but we almost never saw him doing it, people were bitching about DC not showing Vic his due respect (as is right and correct) and I thought; "Y'know....maybe Vic can fly but is afraid of heights."
I thought it was a fun little phobia that would help round Vic's character out. Just an odd thought from the time that, for whatever reason, popped back up in the brain pan.

So what’s happening here? Is Vic going back to the best costume he’s ever had?
Yeah. If this does bring about the Reis design, this is a win.
Couple random Cyborg doodles I did. I have books filled with stories I've written and chars I designed if I ever get the chance to work on Vic lol

I was just playing around with dif elements from previous designs. I had DCYou in mind for that. I want a Cyborg that actually shows skin again at this point lol.
Red X is def the one I would love to see most. Surprised it hasn't happened. I have ideas on how I'd incorporate Jump City if DC won't let Cyborg have it as his new home... Just by introducing a supporting character from there. There's more to it than that, but it's one of those things that's fun to think about.
Victor probably shouldn't have Red X as he is tied to the robin, both in being him and probably someone who knows about him, but he should definitely have HIVE and it's students. You could introduce Jinx back in as a love interest or an antagonist, gizmo as an arch-nemesis.
I'm not the biggest Cyborg fan, but I l think that's because I never saw him do anything too interesting. I did enjoy him in the TT anime series (not GO). Here is a picture by Gabriel Picolo
Teen Titans the OG animated series remains one of if not the best iteration of the character imo; Doom Patrol is a pretty compelling take on the character as well. I think David F. Walker (despite editorial interference) was doing something really interesting with Vic and I really wish we could've seen him vision fully realized like Priest and Lobdell got to do with Deathstroke and Red Hood respectively.
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.
