Doesn't Lyle's headband just say, "I come from a highly advanced civilization!"?

But he's from Earth. Everyone knows Earth is a backwater slum.

Now Brainy's purple coveralls? THOSE scream "highly advanced civilization"!

Any outfit with that starfield fabric (Starboy, Impulse, Andromeda, M'onel) seems pretty futuristic (assuming it's not just sequins).

Oh yeah, and anything with a fin helmet...

I always assumed Mon's post-boot costume was kind of like camo and helped him blend into during space missions. So he gets my vote for the most futurist outfit.

Loincloths with fringe! You'd have to keep flying outside a gravity field to keep 'em *ahem* from hanging the wrong way.

I think it's those shoulder thingies, like Cosmic Boy, and Silver Age Chameleon Boy, Timber Wolf and Colossal Boy have. They are radical!

Eyeglasses without frames (a la Kent -- although you'd think lasik surgery would've caught on by then).

Wildfire's suit is definitely not something you find at Men's Warehouse.

Definitely Wildfire's containment suit, since it holds his energy together but still lets him blast things. Mano has to take his glove off, doesn't he? Of course, he's probably from a primitive planet.

Another one is Triad's suit which splits into the appropriate colours. Some dye-job!

And WHAT pray tell is wrong with sequins?? laugh laugh

I love Chams Cockrum based costume as well as his Wildfire costume. Star fields playing in a costume, very cool. I don't think Timber Wolf ever had any pointy shoulder 'thingies' but maybe it was a costume I just choose to forget?? laugh Dream Girls old costume, esp when done by Grell was very futuristic.

By the way, thongs are really uncomfortable, especially if your a male!! laugh laugh I would HOPE that those in the 30th century would have figured that out by now and banned the damned things!! laugh

That's why it's not a golden metal headband.
Cheap terran imitations.

If we are going for allowing the use of powers then the ultimate suit is a TransSuit. Not only does it allow the use of individual powers while in the vacuum of space it also absorbs the energies of attacking enemies without rupturing!

Phantom Girl's bell bottoms and Tyroc's huge lapels obviously originated from very advanced cultures.

I wonder if Star Boy, when wearing his all-starfield outfit and flying around in space, just looks like a disembodied head?

He'd be like Konk's older brother or something...

I say that Ferro Lad's outfit is most futuristic--because his iron mask is undoubtedly made of some sort of futuristic "space-iron." smile

And Tellus' space-helmet is up there, too, since it apparently doesn't have to be supplied by any visible, cumbersome (sp?) methane tanks. Unless he cheats by filling up between panels, that is. wink


If the meek shall inherit inherit the Earth, then I at least want Baffin Island - and a property manager to work for me who is made of sterner stuff than I.

That funny headgear thing made famous by Colossal Boy. Sure, it serves no practical purpose, but so what ?

He does! Remember the cover to the "Night Never Falls at Nullport" issue? I didn't even notice him on it at first.
