DC Universe unveiled the first official photo of Joivan Wade as Cyborg in Doom Patrol and fan reactions to the image have been mixed.
Joivan Wade will be the latest actor to portray Victor Stone when Doom Patrol debuts on DC Universe in February, but some fans have compared this version of the costume to a cheap Halloween costume. Others are more enthusiastic, however, and seem excited to see the how the character will look on screen.
You can check out some of the reactions below!

Why does Cyborg look like something I’d see in the one Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movies? https://t.co/s5tAjEKFYu

Cyborg looks pretty good for a tv show version. And already looks better than the CGI piece of crap from Justice League 😂😂😂

What are your thoughts in the Cyborg design? Share your opinion in the comments section below!
DOOM PATROL is a re-imagining of one of DC’s most beloved group of outcast Super Heroes: Robotman, Negative Man, Elasti-Girl and Crazy Jane, led by modern-day mad scientist Dr. Niles Caulder (The Chief). The Doom Patrol’s members each suffered horrible accidents that gave them superhuman abilities—but also left them scarred and disfigured. Traumatized and downtrodden, the team found purpose through The Chief, who brought them together to investigate the weirdest phenomena in existence—and to protect Earth from what they find. Part support group, part Super Hero team, the Doom Patrol is a band of super-powered freaks who fight for a world that wants nothing to do with them. Picking up after the events of TITANS, DOOM PATROL will find these reluctant heroes in a place they never expected to be, called to action by none other than Cyborg, who comes to them with a mission hard to refuse, but with a warning that is hard to ignore: their lives will never, ever be the same.
Doom Patrol stars Matt Bomer as Larry Trainor/Negative Man, Brendan Fraser as Cliff Steele/Robotman, April Bowlby as Elasti-Woman, Diane Guerrero as Crazy Jane, Joivan Wade as Victor Stone/Cyborg and Timothy Dalton as Dr. Niles Caulder/The Chief.
Doom Patrol will premiere on February 15, 2019, exclusively on DC Universe.
