The character models for some of the characters in the test footage were quite different from the final product. The Superman design used was identical to the models used on Le avventure di Superman (1996). Green Lantern had the same hairstyle and costume as the final design, but still possesses the dark green mask from the Superman draft model. The one with the most significant changes to his design was J'onn J'onzz. In the test footage he appears blockier, with a squarer jaw, a Kirbyesque line detailing his right cheek, and black eyes with red pupils (similar to the Joker's redesign for Batman - Cavaliere della notte (1997)). In addition, J'onn's color palate utilizes paler greens, blues and reds, and possesses none of the shiny highlights that have become a trademark of the series. Featured briefly commanding a robot that resembles the Golem (from Batman of the Future: Golem (1999)), similarly, Lex Luthor had a craggy, Kirby-like detailing on his face, and his design is an early take on the updated purple-and-green jumpsuit uniform, indicating that the creative team was already planning on utilizing the Silver Age "mad scientist" Luthor, rather than the "corrupt industrialist" Luthor, from Le avventure di Superman (1996). Solomon Grundy looked a bit younger than on the final product and Cheetah looked more like her comic counterpart, featuring long black hair.
