Marvel Costume Designs That Unfortunately DID Go Away?

[Electric Version]

[Choppa]

technically that didn't go away, it became another character ;)

Who did it become?

And I really like that version as well. I wish they would have kept it for a while longer.

I think its insane that people like that Taskmaster redesign. His classic look is amazing.

[remoteman]

I called that the "18-Wheeler Armor" because it looked like he had big rig exhaust pipes on his back. STUPID!

Different strokes for different folks. I really liked the over the top, industrial look. I think a lot of Iron Man's armours tend to look a bit too clean and polished.

[Saku]

really? pirate thing?

okay then. let's compare Taskmaster's original costume to a PIRATE.

Honestly, anybody hating on this costume for that boring redesign is not worth taking seriously.

I also really loved Loki's female look, wish that lasted longer. She was really seductive looking. It was sexy, but felt wrong because we all knew it was a guy on the inside. Would have loved for that to last longer.

Disturbing, mind-boggling and utterly effective all in one. It suited his scheming personality very well. I loved that dinner scene (s)he had with Doom in his castle.

Hmm, he looks like a cross between New Wave and Emo.

That sounds like Cyclops alright.

Thought I'd bump this...

Some Cap-based costume designs that unfortunately did go away...



Both these designs are ACE. Sadly, Olivetti's designs were kinda ignored because Punisher fans took such a hard on of hatred to the arc. It's nice to see Punisher's Cap costume turn up in the Ultimates and in Marvel vs Capcom. Shame the Hate-Monger is back to his purple ghost suit though.


I also think there's something interesting about Steve's Expatriate costume.


And the American Son armour I always thought had a lot of potential. I was pretty excited and then ultimately disappointed when American Son got a mini. It's the type of armour that belongs on someone from Cap's supporting cast, not some Osborn sprog.

Anyway, I post all these because I think they're actually all pretty viable to be repurposed for the current age. All 3 of them could be given to William Burnside, or the American Son could go to Walker, or the Expatriate could be used for a generic Captain America ideological baddie (like the Captain from Secret Avengers). They're all quite simple but effective designs that deserve a place in Cap's book somewhere

I actually kind of miss the gray Hulk -- the large brow, bowl cut look fits the gray version to a tee.


But keep my green Hulk shaggy haired and with eyebrows!

McFarlane's Hulk surpass every others because he really look like a freaky, diformed monster. CAuse when you look at Hulk he's really just a big green guy. But McFarlane really made him look like a monster. They should use that model and just color him green.

Something I kinda miss is actually the Avengers bomber jackets.

I think there's a certain distinct lack of Avengers pride.

X-Men all have X's on their uniform. The FF all had 4's. Even the X-Men and FF members that join the Avengers keep the X's and 4's. No one bothers sporting an A on their uniform.

The Avengers bomber jackets showed a degree of team unity and pride. It's something I wouldn't mind seeing come back.

The Avengers are not the X-Men. Harras giving them that showed he missed the point.

I will shout this till the end of time, the redo is ATROCIOUS!

I love classic Mockingbird couture.

...although I like her even more with her big boots that she had prior to this.

[Fire Knight]

silver spider armor from ps1 spidey game is very cool even though it look bad in comic

[Tar22]

I missed Dr Octopus in business suits.It was one of the best modernisations in a character's look.



And i loved his original appearence.White is definetely Ock's color.

That's a great spread. Awesome visual sense of height and depth. What issue is this from?

Great look for both Doc Ock and Spidey, too. Always loved the Ben Reilly costume.

I have slight different take on this topic,I don't they should use these costume no need for the original person who put it on to be inside of it










That is my 4 costume that i would like see used regardless who of is the suit.I even have a pitch to use them create a new Thunderbolts team and use these as the costume

[Luck911]

and these two as well
