The stylized skull face looks cool and dynamic in a semi-anime way, instead of looking like a goofy Skeletor face with bulging eyes. I think that's the main reason it works. Well, that and the colors are just really good.

Both of those are basically just variations on Black Suit Spider-man, one of the most successful and iconic costume changes in comic book history. Spidey went from having arguably the best costume in comics to having the other best costume in comics.

Dacap posted:Crosspost from the Marvel thread, here's a bunch of new costumes showing the designs for the new female Thor, Falcon as Cap, and a new Iron Man armor. I overall like the Thor, the Iron Man is kind of bland and the Cap design is way to busy in the chest and has a lot of extraneous elements like the massive belt buckle and side ridges that it would look better without. I really don't like Thor lady's boob plate and world of warcraft gauntlets. It's a bad costume, which is a shame, since a lot of artists have been able to do amazing variants of Thor's basic costume for the past decade or so. Plus, whoever drew that forgot to give her any muscle mass.

Yeah I mean, despite the amazing job the two live action Spider-man franchises did with the eyes, the mask still doesn't emote like in the comics. You can't think about these things too hard.

It was specifically an anti-pot PSA. It was pretty surreal seeing all these superheroes yelling about how marijuana is the devil and kills more people than disease and war combined or whatever. It'd be goofy for something from the 80s, but this was the late 90s. Though I guess it would eventually be topped by those commercials that equated smoking weed to causing 9/11. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gw0y-KfGNk

Sometimes at cons I see young cosplayers wear skin colored tights so they can be accurate in their costume and not be pedophile bait. Maybe Supergirl should look into that poo poo?

Man don't be so obtuse.

Sherlock Hyde posted:I've always been a fan of costumes that are more practical than they are stylish, so I kinda really love Jack Knight's outfit and Sandman design from Sandman Mystery Theatre. Although that one I probably like more because it reminds me of the Shadow than anything, and I love the Shadow. That's also probably why I love Darkwing Duck's outfit so much. As someone who attempted to go trick or treating as Darkwing duck once, let met tell you, there's nothing practical about that hat.

patriotic costume has to be this though:
|
There was a Batman story about a tailor who ends up getting roped into doing costume work for Batman's rogues, although since they're dangerous psychos it's a terrifying situation for him instead of a side gig, and Batman ends up rescuing him from it and hiring him to work on his own suits.

I feel like given enough time and enough artist changes, every single female character design will turn into a huge chested model. Pepper Potts used to be a frumpy short lady and now she just looks like she walked off the set of Sex and the City. Hell, I'm sure someone once drew aunt May as a sexy vixen but with grey hair.

Pierson posted:CineD had/has a thread about insider politics, editing, deadlines, just general funny stories and poo poo about the inner workings of movies. I'd be interested to see a similar thread on comics because even small little posts like the Sonic one about Ken Penders are entertaining as hell. I can only imagine the clusterfucks that DC and Marvel have gotten up to. Unfortunately the comics industry is too small and incestuous. Everyone's really afraid of talking poo poo about anyone else for fear of getting blackballed from one or both of the Big Two, or even just blackballed from some of the bigger alternatives like Image. There's not that much money in comics, it's suicide to remove one of the like 5 places you can work at just to gossip.
