Okay, it's not actually a duplicate, and this may sound kind of nitpicky, but both this trope and Brought to You by the Letter "S" use Superman's S-shield, in rather similar images even. (It's too bad the current image on Dressed in Layers is so good with a justification of the trope to boot...) There's gotta be a gazillion potential examples we can use, though admittedly none are likely to be quite as iconic as the big S.

The pics aren't necessarily a bad thing, but I kinda like the idea of a collage on Chest Insignia...I'm thinking one from DC, one from Marvel, and a couple from other companies or even other media for variety's sake.

I like the picture on Chest Insignia better than the one on Brought to You by the Letter "S". Maybe move that picture there, and choose a new one for CI? A few:

  1. Spider-Man (with the "3" cropped off)
  2. Captain Hammer
  3. Batman
  4. The Incredibles

[up] Without being able to look at those links right now, I like the idea of moving the Superman pics around.

[up][up]Whoever Captain Hammer is, that image is great. Supporting moves as you suggest.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

I find Captain Hammer's CI kinda small.

I like Hawkman for CI. He doesn't even wear a SHIRT yet he STILL has a chest insignia.

I do like the concept of a Chest Insignia when one's not even wearing a shirt.

I say Hawkman for Chest Insignia. I agree that the fact that he manages one without even wearing a shirt is an excellent illustration of the trope.

Maybe we can find a better image of Hawkman?

Aesthetically, I like the one in #10 best. And I think it does the best job of putting the chest insignia front and center, as it were.

Hawkman works for me...he's paid in seed and suet.

For a caption "Chest Insignias are obligatory. Shirts are optional"
