I'll be upfront: as much as I love Steve Wang, I kind of hate the Returns suit, cowl included. But this isn't about personal preferences at all, it's about fidelity and this cowl is inappropriate. I mean, would you be chill with a Tech Noir Arnie sporting a Genisys headsculpt, or Jedi Luke coming with Vader's saber because you prefer the color red?
The Returns cowl took everything good about the '89 cowl and made it better tho. It's pretty much the closest they got to replicating how he looks in the comic (obvious color differences aside). It fit a lot closer to Keaton's head this time giving him that iconic silhouette from the comics. The furrored brow is more pronounced, like the comics. And they gave it a lot of sharp angles that really give it that graphic comicbook look when backlit.
Love the cowl but actually dont like the suit and prefer the '89 suit. So yeah, I am more than ok with them mixing it up...even if its technically wrong.
