What superhero had the dumbest looking costume?

[theenglish]

I think WOLVERINES first cotume is the dumbest (but not the gayest) I mean wolvie actually has Whiskers on his mask!

WOW! LAWD HAVE MERCY! That's as bright YELLOW as they come! to think a CGC graded 9.8 copy of this normaly sells for over $21,000.00!

And all those people who have those $21.000 copies have people like me, who bought this book when it first came out and proceded to abuse the crap out of it, to thank.

 

[theenglish]

I would have to say "The Ambiguously Gay Heroes" from SNL, but they're not for real.

As opposed to other super-heroes who are real?

I bet your kicking your self now huh?

 

[LaxScrutiny]

I'm kicking myself that I sold my pristine copy in '78 for 20 bucks.

D'OH!!!!!

 

[Norrin Radd]

I always thought Wolvie's brown and tan costume...designed by John Byrne...was the best.

It would still likely suck for a "real-life" movie, but it's probably the best one he's got.

The black is too bland.

Yeah, I had a lot of comics that I could sell now if they were still around, but they are not the only things that I wrecked. Most of my friends and I really, really identify with The 40 Year Old Virgin vintage toy collection.

I loved that movie!

 

[Snaploud]

I'm not sure it's the worst, but I've always hated Wonder Woman's costume.

I'm not sure it's the worst, but I've always hated Wonder Woman's costume.

Why?

 

[theenglish]

Because it is basically a glorified bathing suit.

There are really so many bad costume designs out there, it would be cool to have a poll.

I agree that Cosmic Boy's Seventies suit (or lack thereof) would certainly rank up there, but many of the costumes mentioned already are just as bad.

I would have to add Luke Cage's Power-Man costume to list and perhaps Black Lightning's duds of the period. Even at the time, these clothes were cringeworthy.

 

[shivkala]

Alexander Luthor Jr.'s (I consider him a hero of sorts) gold one-piece--dude, have you not changed your clothes since you were born?

Actually, I think he pretty much literally wore that since he was born (being artificially aged and all).

 

[Trekker4747]

Oh!

Can Dr. Manhattan count?

I mean, come on, man! No one wants to see that shit!

THANK YOU! I'm glad somebody said it! maybe nobody tells him differantly because there afraid he can just blink and *POOF* your gone!

Why?

I don't think the color combination or shape is very flattering. She looks the worst when they play up the "grandma panty" look. Ugh.

[Trekker4747]

I mean, if he doesn't want to he doesn't have to put on an entire costume, but the least he could do is get a g-string codpiece that matches his skin color.

Something, man.

I know your boys need to breathe and have room to move, and all, but Jesus.

 

[miraclefan]

How about this little number?OOOOHH! look at me, I have a HOOK! this is supposed to make me look KEWL! and make up for the fact I'm stupid and boring!

 

[theenglish]

So what are we supposed to be looking at exactly?

 

[The Boy Who Cried Worf]

Night Owl's cowl is extremely silly and non-threatening looking.

I wouldn't say it is dumb, but I always thought Moondragon's costume, or lack thereof, would be extremely difficult to pull off in real life.

 

[Gryffindorian]

The actual answer to that question is Cosmic Boy's costume from the 1970's.

Now I think we can close the thread.

It looked sexy in a way ...
