Needs Help: Rubber Man

Looks more like it's illustrating Rubber Face. Surely we can get something more dynamic, therefore much clearer.

It's not like there aren't a million excellent examples out there.

Mr◊ Fantastic◊.

Professor◊ Impossible◊.

Plastic Man◊

Elongated Man◊.

Or we could try to get a better illustration Luffy◊, the current guy in the image.

1.1 is good, as well as the Luffy one. But I freaking HATE Mr. Fantastic. I wish he'd stretch his arm back round to punch himself in the face...

Okay, that was a bit mean. :(

So yeah. 1.1 is good. And the new Luffy.

I prefer Plastic Man, but is there a good one of Elastigirl stretching somewhere?

I like 1.2 best.

Here◊ are◊ some◊. Not as clear as the OP suggestions, unfortunately. I didn't go too far in the search because I'm getting too much NSFW results for my liking.

I think most of them are at least decent, except for Luffy and the Elastigirl suggestions.

I like the Luffy one.

this◊ Luffy one is also a classic.

1.2 works. Quality seems a bit off on 1.4. None of the Elastigirl suggestions work for me.

Ha ha! 6.1 is pretty cool.

I suppose 1.2 is really good. I just can't stand him.

Also, I can see that this will need a crowner. There's a ton of images to choose from, and more out there. Also, Elastigirl on google images definitely has too many NSFW results. It's weird.

Some other Plastic Man suggestions: Jack-in-the-box◊, with Catwoman◊, Fighting Mr. Fantastic◊ (we'd need to ask the artist for an un-watermarked version), petting dog◊

We're gonna have a dandy Image Links page for this one.

I like the third one.

9.3 is great.

I like the second prof. impossible one.

Bump; crowner?

Probably for the best

.....man we're gonna have one heck of a crowner, won't be surprised if we get several runoffs

Crowner's hooked. I'm not where I can easily look these up right now, so context will need to be added for most.

I'm happy with the current one. It's not just his cheeks stretching; you see the inside of his gums extending overly long.

He doesn't have any gums in the picture...

Even if we didn't have Rubber Face that it could be confused for, it's still a very low-key illustration of a very dynamic trope.

I found the leader on dA and it's a commissioned work, so I doubt very seriously that we'll be able to use it.

Pre-weekend bump for votes.

Vote snapshot:

• Professor Impossible 1.4◊ is at 8 yeah/4 nay.
• Mr. Fantastic 1.1◊ is at 8 yeah/5 nay.
• Mr. Fantastic 1.2◊ is at 6 yeah/3 nay.

All else in red.

This is ready to call. The new pic's up, potholed, and tagged, and the rest are on an Image Links page. Caption or no?

I want to say, "Fight me like a band!" or something, but I'm not sure if it works as well as it did in my head.

It would be a stretch to say that's a good fighting stance.

No consensus on a caption; locking up.
