This idea is a misunderstanding of scripture.
Jesus has no intention of returning as a living human. He already did that.
This time Jesus is returning in the hearts of those who have accepted his message and try to live their lives to emulate his teachings. Few actually do this. It requires a radically different interpretation of love from the one understood by most so-called believers. Most people see love as something that you keep in reserve only for those you have judged worthy of it.
This is not love at all. This is only judgment. Judgment is the exact opposite of what Jesus was teaching. Remember judge not lest ye be judged. Jesus asks us to love our neighbor. Notice that there is no accept for in this statement. Every one is intended to be included in this love Jesus ask us to have for our fellow man. This type of universal application of love requires no judgment on our part because Jesus’' intent was that no one be left out of it.
This is a difficult pill to swallow for any religion that thinks of it's self as being the one true and only correct way to God. This idea of exclusivity is the exact opposite of the message of inclusively that Jesus gave us.
Attaining the goals that Jesus set for us may be difficult within the constraints most religions impose. This is why many who seriously try to emulate the true teachings of Jesus in their lives do not ascribe to any particular religious following. They follow the truth in their hearts where Jesus has taken up residence.
Love and blessings.

I am going to use the Book of Revelation, chapter 19, verses 11-16
He will be riding on a white horse, and he will be followed by an entire army, dressed in white, riding on white horses. His eyes will appear to be full of fire, blazingly bright. He will have many crowns upon his head. He will have the name KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS on His robe and on His thigh.
There is a reference in this passage to His robe being spotted with blood; that is the result of the battle of Armageddon, which He will fight shortly after returning to earth.
There are other references, such as Revelation 1:12-16 which describes how Jesus looked to John in heaven.

No one knows what Jesus looks like but the Bible says that when He returns that the whole world will know it is Him.

Woody Harrelson.
Or wait, no, better yet, he'll look like Bart Simpson, but with a deep voice. And all of the Christians will have to stand around listening to him, thinking "I can't believe this!". Wow, that'll really be a problem, won't it?
Oh, yeah, I can just see Bart up there, riding on a white horse, followed by an entire army, dressed in white, riding on white horses. His eyes full of fire, blazingly bright. with the name KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS on His robe and on His thigh, and that little slingshot in his back pocket.

When Jesus returns it will be wonderful. He will be coming in all his his glory. He will be wearing red. There will be many that will try to say that they are he, they will even be able to perform miracles but you must be careful and trust only what the spirit of the lord tells you. When he returns, he will be surrounded by a leigon of angels. That is how you will know it is him.

Strange question because nobody knows what he looked like the first time around. Imagine that: the son of God and nobody bothered to take the time to describe him during their writings about him. Makes one wonder!

When you see him you will recognize him by his wounds that he received on earth, by the way noone really know what he looks like but everyone will know when he shows up from heaven! Best of Luck!

A strong warrior cleaning up on the hourds coming against Israel.

However He in His heavenly residence is pictured also in the Book of Revelation as follows
I turned around to see the voice that was speaking to me. And when I turned I saw seven golden lampstands, 13 and among the lampstands was someone "like a son of man," dressed in a robe reaching down to his feet and with a golden sash around his chest. 14 His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and his eyes were like blazing fire. 15 His feet were like bronze glowing in a furnace, and his voice was like the sound of rushing waters. 16 In his right hand he held seven stars, and out of his mouth came a sharp double-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining in all its brilliance."

He will look like Freddie Mercury and he will smite all the people who used religion to cause the hate, torture, and deaths of people in the name of the bible or other religious text.
