On the subject of costumes: [hider=Batman] [img]https://orig00.deviantart.net/0543/f/2017/125/b/b/batman_tnba_by_jtsentertainment-db88ira.png[/img] I tend to take my superhero costumes real simple and real iconic, and I think this outfit is a masterclass in that. This is a suit that plays Batman very straight and minimalist. Just the way I like it. It's closely followed by the JLU suit and the BTAS suit. JLU didn't make it because I'm not the biggest fan of the purple-y sheen thing the cape has going on, and BTAS didn't make it because I honestly can't get behind the yellow-logo look.[/hider] [hider=Spider-Man] [img]https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/marveldatabase/images/9/90/Otto_Octavius_%28Superior_Spider-Man%29_%28Earth-12131%29_001.png/revision/latest?cb=20150611160047[/img] It's sleek. It's functional. It has an amazing form factor. It's The Superior Spider-Man. Technically it wasn't Pete in this suit, but I can't help but get behind it. As I alluded to in my Batman pick, I like two things in my Superhero costumes: Minimalism and Functionality, and this number's got both in spades. But if I had to pick a suit worn by Peter himself... [img]https://www.spidermancrawlspace.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/spideystan.bmp[/img] No choice [i]but[/i] this one, honestly. This is the suit I will [i]always[/i] imagine Spider-Man in. The show was before my time, but I grew up the re-runs, they're what truly introduced my to the character. As a kid I went to Universal Orlando a fair deal, and this is the design they used for the Spider-Man in the ride, and damn if it isn't permanently ingrained in my memory.

Accept no substitutes from Vigilantes II-IX.[/hider] [hider= Superman] [img]https://www.cbr.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Superman-metropolis-alex-ross.jpg[/img] Nobody does it quite like Alex Ross. It's simple and it's iconic. What more can I ask for? [/hider] [hider= Moon Knight] [img]https://am24.akamaized.net/tms/cnt/uploads/2014/04/Moon-Knight-Suit-2014-580x390.jpg[/img] I wish I read more Moon Knight. But even if I did? He’s smooth, he’s suave, he’ll fuck up The Mob, he’s Mr. Knight! You can’t beat this outfit. [/hider] [hider= Captain America] [img]https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/avengersearthsmightiestheroes/images/4/4f/Captain_america_aemh.png/revision/latest?cb=20121107030239[/img] That square jaw. That beautiful yet subtle scale mail. And, of course, that dedication to the Red, White, and Blue that frankly too many Cap designs have strayed from. All that plus a show I’ve seen too many times? Pretty goddamn iconic. [/hider] [hider= Iron Man] [img]https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/marveldatabase/images/8/87/Iron_Man_Armor_Model_50.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20170122061510[/img] Much as I like simple and iconic designs, I can’t help but love The Superior Iron Man’s armor. The sheer amount of cool gadgets and toys he has falling out of the thing is insane, and its whole aesthetic seems to play up Stark’s power, brilliance, and ego. 10/10. But if I had to pick an armor worn by a version of the character who is less of a jackass: [img]https://thechive.files.wordpress.com/2018/03/iron-man-armors-2525.jpg?quality=85&strip=info&w=600[/img] I don’t like how Iron Man armors later in the MCU kept getting sleeker and sleeker and even more form-fitting. I like the clunkiness of this old thing. It’s got hard edges and you can practically smell the grease and oil when each of the weapons slide on out, yet it still seems perfectly advanced. [/hider] That’s all I care to list, for now. May post more later.
