Out of every superhero, vigilante or villain which of their outfits is your personal favorite?

Maybe because it's flashy, maybe because it's a very effective at identity protection, maybe it's really practical, maybe it has the potential to be iconic or maybe because it just looks terrifying?

I say this every time a costume discussion comes up, but . . . Captain Marvel. Carol Danvers. Her new uniform just looks great. The colours work well, the star burst is cool, the sash is a great way of maintaining some of Carol's history. It suits her perfectly, and is just a dynamic, well-designed uniform.

... the new Ultimate Spider Man costume looks oddly like the Spidey's Secret War costume.

Anyways, as to my favourite costume... that's oddly easy for me. I've always liked Guardian's (James Macdonald Hudson) costume. Slick, iconic, and very, very Canadian evil grin

This might be a guilty pleasure of sorts, but I've always loved the Golden Age Green Lantern's get-up. Is it too much—too many colors and too many design elements going on? Sure ... but that's part of its charm for me. It's just so PULP—none of that '50s Zeerust sci-fi slickness, thankyouverymuch, and to hell with modernist minimalism and "clean lines." The blousy shirt, the thongs cinching up his boots, the chain clasp on his cloak ... the earliest versions even have freaking JODHPURS. Suck it, Gil Kane!

your love of Golden Age!Green Lantern has reminded me of how much i like Silver Age!Batman. i don't see why recent costume designers have become terrified of bright colors, but i like blue Batman.
