These images do not look "essentially" the same to me; the De-power one looks like a transfer of sorts.

I'm not big on that one. It looks more like a con man than anything else.
Reaction Image RepositoryIMO changing the one on Depower would be the best. No leads on a replacement though.
I don't think they're similar enough that a change is required, though an obvious improvement is of course always welcomed. The actual difference between them makes quite a lot of difference in what you see. A handshake or a power transfer of sorts. Which incidentally is what the tropes are about.
Check out my fanfiction!They don't look that similar to me. If a superior replacement can be found for either of them, that would be fine, but I see no pressing need for a change at the moment.
Oh, and the old Deal with the Devil image is not very good; I can see why it was changed.
Most people were fine with Facilier; Hades just looked to be the better choice.
So if we have a duplicate, no reason we can't go back to Facilier.
The image in 3 is just horrible for this. It totally does not look like this at all.
3 is absolutely bad. No way I'll support its return to the Deal with the Devil page.

Looks clear to me.
I don't like it, it looks like that white guy is just working for the devil (and very few Dwt D involve an office environment like that, anyway). I'd prefer either the current pic (and replacing it on the other trope as needed) or Dr. Facilier.

Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!I'm not seeing anything in the image that suggests they're not equals. It seems clear enough to me—much more so than 3, at least.
Should we have a crowner on it then? I think this is a still a pretty good candidate, but let's see what more people think.

Looks pretty good.
Can it be brightened? It's a little too dark for my liking, but otherwise
I'm a little worried about how that one would look at wiki size, especially with said darkness.
To be fair, the image does have a lot of dead spaces on the sides that could be easily cropped off.
First attempt to brighten it up:
Also looks pretty fine to me. If you know who the original artist is, he or she should probably be credited.
Looks like it's from http://marcovale.com though oddly the artist's website does not seem to have the picture displayed anymore. Changed portfolio I guess.
For #21 from me too, failing a better suggestion (which wouldn't be easy to come by in my opinion).
Absent-minded professor and Neverwinter Nights DMI think current is the best so far for DwtD.

I just noticed that both Deal with the Devil and Depower have essentially the same picture of Hades and Hercules. I suggest changing one of them.
