What does a commanche look like?
I guess you mean "What did a historic Comanche look like?".
The Comanche very quickly adopted items of white American dress, including shirts, hats, dresses and (unusually) trousers.
Native dress for men was a breechclout with knee-length flaps front and back, thigh-length leggings gartered below the knee and fitted with triangular flaps each side (sometimes painted blue). Skin shirts were fringed and often painted yellow or green.
Native dress for women was originally a knee-length skirt and a poncho-like top; later three-skin dresses were worn. Dresses seem to have been painted in muted yellow or buff and were heavily fringed.
Moccasins had long fringes at the heel and along the instep; women combined moccasins with low leggings to create "boots", often with silver conchos down the side seam.
Women wore their hair loose and with the central parting painted red. Men wore two long braids wrapped in otter fur, or plastered the hair with red clay.

Southwestern New Brunswick and the neighbouring part of Quebec were the home of the Malecite.
The Montagnais and Naskapi lived in what is now Quebec and Labrador. The Montagnais occupied the heavily wooded area along the north shore of the St. Lawrence as far east as Sept-Iles. The tundra-like lands of the Naskapi extended far into northeastern Quebec.
The Ojibway occupied a large territory encompassing all the northern shores of Lake Huron and Lake Superior from Georgian Bay to the edge of the Prairies, and to the height of the land north where the rivers begin to flow towards Hudson Bay. The Algonquin lived in the Ottawa Valley. The Odawa lived mainly on Manitoulin Island in the northern Lake Huron, Georgian Bay area.
Flanking the Ojibway on the north and west, the Cree also occupied an immense area. They lived on the southern perimeter of Hudson Bay, as far north as Churchill. Their territory was bounded on the east by Lake Mistassini and extended all the way west to the Prairie frontier.

Southwestern Indian tribe led by Geronimo?
Geronimo (real name Gokhlayeh) grew up as a warrior in a band of Mimbres Apaches under the leadership of chief Mangas Coloradas. Later he joined a band of Chiricahuas under the leadership of Cochise.
When the Chiricahuas were forced onto a reservation, Geronimo broke away several times with a small number of followers; he headed into Mexico in 1881 with just 74 others.
Returning to the reservation he then left again in 1885 with 92 women and just 42 warriors; by the following year he had only 14 women and 23 warriors left.
He was never considered a "chief" by the Apaches themselves, simply a successful warrior and war leader who had a very small number of followers. It was his American and Mexican enemies who described him as a chief.
