"One thing we’ve been considering doing is alternate skins for the characters. It’d be cool if we could, say, have a main Barry Allen skin and then if you really want to go retro have a Kid Flash skin, or Impulse. All of those things would be a lot of fun,"
"When I was a kid, Barry Allen was the Flash and Wally West was Kid Flash. There was the Justice League and there was the Teen Titans. Then I stopped reading comics a while, come back and Wally West is the Flash! Robin became Batman! I kind of missed a generation,"

How about just different skins? I want a John Stewart skin.
That's what he means....
Normal alt skin is Hal Jordan but with the old costume for example but they could go retro and have John Stewart standing there.

John isn't "retro", retro is like the silver/golden age. Unless the is set in the future that is.

Look all that counts here is that we can expect skins like John Stewart and Kid Flash and i think that's good news!

I agree, the retro part is still throwing me though as that just means "old/classic outfits" instead of "reskins of characters".

Sounds awesome. But if they do this, they should probably make sure nothing alters; like their hitbox or frame data... ;)

Dude, John came out in the early 70's. That's pretty retro.

Something I'd like to see would be Hal's old Parallax GL costume from the 90's. That outfit was badass as shit.

"Retro" to me means "past iterations", meaning the original GL or old costumes for Hal.

Take Cyborg's voice (probably why he doesn't say Boo-yah...) on GL and put John there as costume and you have him!
