DC Comics Coloring Pages
This collection of DC comics coloring pages features well-known characters from the universe, allowing you to color them using their familiar color schemes.
DC Coloring Pages: Introduction
Each of these DC coloring pages include recognizable characters that you can fill in with colors that match their comic book appearances. For those interested in comic-style coloring, it is common to use bold outlines and flat colors with minimal shading. Highlights and shadows are often used sparingly, focusing on clarity rather than detailed rendering.
When coloring, remember to follow basic color schemes often used in comics. For instance, Superman typically wears a blue suit with red boots, a red cape, and a yellow belt. Batman’s suit is mostly gray with a black cape, cowl, and symbol, while his utility belt is often shown in yellow.
Wonder Woman’s outfit features red, blue, and gold elements. Green Lantern’s suit consists of green and black. Sticking to these color schemes will help maintain the recognizable look of these iconic characters.
When it comes to backgrounds, in comic books they are often less detailed and use fewer colors than the characters. This helps to keep the focus on the heroes and action in the foreground. Basic blues, greens, and muted colors for skies, buildings, or landscapes are often sufficient.

The bottom part of her costume, often shown as a skirt or shorts, is blue with white stars. Her boots are typically red with white trim. For her bracelets, a metallic silver or gold is commonly used. The lasso of truth is always depicted in gold.
The Joker’s typical costume features a purple suit with green accents. His shirt is usually orange or green, and his tie is often green as well. His hair is bright green, and his face is pale white due to makeup, with exaggerated red lips and black around his eyes. The Joker’s suit can vary in detail, but the combination of purple, green, and orange is consistent in most appearances. The makeup should remain stark and unsettling, with heavy contrasts between the white face and red lips.
Harley Quinn’s color scheme is traditionally black and red. Her costume is divided into alternating black and red sections, with diamond patterns on her legs or arms. She often wears white makeup on her face with black eye makeup and red lipstick. In some depictions, Harley’s costume has blue or white accents, especially in modern versions, but the black and red colors remain dominant.
Aquaman’s costume is most often green and orange. His upper body is clad in an orange scale-like shirt, while his pants are green. His gloves and boots are also green. The trident he carries is usually gold or silver. The green and orange colors should be really vibrant.
The Flash wears a bright red suit with yellow accents. His boots, belt, and the lightning bolts on his suit are yellow, and his suit is typically a bold, vibrant red. The contrast between the red and yellow is essential. Minimal shading can be used to in coloring Flash.
Green Lantern’s suit is primarily green and black. The torso and shoulders of his suit are bright green, while the rest of the suit, including the gloves, is black. The emblem on his chest is a white circle with the green lantern symbol in the center. His power ring, which he wears on his finger, glows green.
Cyborg’s color scheme involves metallic shades of gray and silver, representing his cybernetic body. His human parts, such as parts of his face or one of his arms, may be a natural skin tone. His robotic parts can be highlighted with blue or red lights.
Black Adam’s costume is traditionally black with a gold lightning bolt symbol on his chest. His belt, boots, and sometimes the edges of his cape are also gold. Shading can be done by using deeper blacks to highlight his muscular form, while the gold accents should remain bright and bold.
Catwoman typically wears a full-body suit that is sleek and black, often with a glossy finish to mimic the look of leather or latex. Her gloves, boots, and mask are all black as well, creating a seamless appearance. Sometimes, her goggles or accessories may feature a hint of red or purple. When coloring Catwoman, you can use light reflections or subtle highlights to highlight the contours of her suit.
Katana’s costume generally incorporates a combination of black, red, and white. Her outfit often features a black or dark gray bodysuit with red accents, such as a sash or markings on her armor.
