    Default Should Hal have the white gloves in his HBO Max GL costume?

    I voted yes because I am for Hal (assuming he's on the show) looking as much like the comics as possible, but really, it's about the overall look moreso than any one element. I think I'd care more about the shape of his mask.

    Yes. The gloves are there for color contrast. It’s not strictly needed, but it helps the ring pop.

    Heh. Ring pop.

    I voted yes, but I wouldnt be mad about it. The green cuffs help break it up too.

    Same way I think of the red trunks actually. I'd probably prefer it but don't have strong feelings about it.

    If they give him a costume relatively close to his comic costume, then yes.

    They should have ditched them ages ago, across all media.
    Rebirth would have been the perfect opportunity to permanently wipe them away. That spaceship has flown.

    Although I'd prefer them, to the creepy skinless exposed muscle tissue energy suit they used for the movie.
    That was horrendous.

    This exactly. The green ring against the white glove makes that ring a center of attention. Especially with as dark as most movies are, the green on greeen or green on black... just blends in too much.

    I voted for "no," but to be honest I don't really care that much. I like the conceit that the ring makes the uniforms, but aside from the Reynolds movie, it rarely looks like the whole outfit is a construct - and Hal's outfit needed some work in that one, besides.

    I voted yes but it's not too important really. Now if GL is John I would rather keep the bare hand/green cuffs look. But the green ring would really work with a different contrasting color surrounding it, be it white (skin or glove) or brow skin.
