Across decades of superhero stories on screens both bigandsmall, some superhero costumes just look better than others.
In a SlashFilm interview from 2016, Byrne said that the hardest part to get right was the cape.
“It’s about getting the spirit and, for want of another word, the magic.
To be entranced by the cloak.
The cloak is sentient, so it has its own character.
But any time he’s on screen, he’s hard to take your eyes off of.
But on the other hand, that’s what makes Robbie look so dang good.
Love it or hate it, the look becamethecostume for Halloween that year.
And look, that’s notwrong.
One look at Tiga’s costume and it’s not hard to see why.
As the titular anti-hero, Johnson’s muscular physique is complemented by a form-fitting costume with unique rocky textures.
And she looks quite magnificent in more evil form in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
But in herDisney+ series WandaVision, the episode “All-New Halloween Spooktacular!”
Nightwing (Brenton Thwaites in Titans)
In the vast annals of superhero costumes, Nightwing is undefeated.
His mixture of neon blue with tactical black is simply untouchable.
But one look at the evil White Ranger of 2004’s Power Rangers DinoThunder is enough to change minds.
After seeing this Punisher in action, suddenly a simple T-shirt just doesn’t cut it anymore.
Other than that, she’s still Supergirl, red “S” and gold belt and all.
In becoming Kamen Rider, he dons a black and green grasshopper-esque racing suit with a bug-eyed helmet.
The result is an arresting silhouette that breathes fresh life into tokusatsu history.
Moon Knight (Oscar Isaac in Moon Knight)
They say the eyes are the window into the soul.
For Oscar Isaac’s Moon Knight, his eyes are a window into blinding white madness.
Aquaman (Jason Momoa in Aquaman)
The king of Atlantis deserves a costume suitable for royalty.
(Where did the costume come from?
Who cares, it looks amazing.)
Shazam (Zachary Levi in Shazam!)
Wearing a bright red suit with a tiny cape and a bold yellow lightning bolt emblem will do that.
Sure, the costume has a very obvious layer of fake muscles, but who will complain when Shazam!
is a total blast?
Even his awkward suit for The Avengers in 2012 has merit, and actually looks pretty good in motion.
Hollywood traditionalists would say that he’sRyan Reynolds, a magazine idol whose face beckons audiences into theaters.
There’s something in the way…

Superman (Christopher Reeve in Superman: The Movie)
you’re able to’t top a classic.
