    CBS Supergirl's Red Tornado

    CBS Supergirl Red Tornado.jpg

    “RED TORNADO is the most advanced android the world has ever seen. Designed by scientist T.O. Morrow for the U.S. Army as the ultimatesuperweapon, he soon becomes sentient, posing a grave danger to National City -- including the peopleSupergirl cares about most.”

    In what way Goldberg will play both Morrow and the Red Tornado isn't clear. While the character has often been imbued with the personality of a human in the comics, Morrow isn't Red Tornado, just the android's inventor. He's also evil, while Red Tornado is a hero and longtime Justice League member. (Red Tornado also served as a mentor to Young Justice when that team first assembled under the pen of longtime Supergirl writer Peter David.)

    Wow, that costume looks like amateur cosplay. It's as bad as SHIELD's version of Deathlok.

      Red Tornado is one of my top five favorite DC characters and I'm sorry if this upsets anyone but, that's just an awful costume. It looks like they are trying imitate the Vision's costume from AoU and doing a poor job at it.

        The fact that Red Tornado is going to be in Live action is enough for me. Also maybe that's the on-set shot and the light up CGI will be added later.

        On the vintage toy point, if you got any extra Red Tornado super powers figures now would be a good time to sell. After this airs they will get gangbuster prices.

            I'm OK with the make-up, rubber cowl. Visionesque obviously. The costume is terrible, the sparkly fabric is straight out of bad Irwin Allen.

                I love Red Tornado, and I too am just happy there will be a live version. I don't love or hate the suit, and yes, it may look different in final version.

                      I remember Dr. Fates's costume from Smallville looked awful in the promo images, but looked good on screen. I hope for the same here.

                        Looks more like a member of the Metal Men than Red Tornado. Also reminds me of MGM's Tinman

                            That's awesome!

                            Yes, hopefully their CGI wizards work their magic on it in post production before it airs.
