The worst superhero costume award definately goes to Gambit. Ugh, I can't believe he actually gets any chicks with that get up.

Spawn is definately an honorable mention.

Plastic Man?????? His costume is classic! He and his ilk deserve medals for not changing with the trends!

How many versions of Marvel hero costumes have we seen?
Iron Man?
Fantastic Four?
X-Men?
The Wasp? - Okay, costume changes are central to her character, I'll let this one pass.

Even the Vision was messed up by Byrne. Thank goodness he's back to his original costume.

Modernizing characters is okay, even necessary. In the X-Men's case new costumes were paramount to their progress as individuals. Iron Man has changed as he's perfected his suit or built new suits for unusual occasions. But what the heck was that red and silver thing? I almost cried when I couldn't say "Golden Avenger" any more. There is something to be said for staying true to your roots.

Dumbest costume... Mandarin = big red butt.

Or maybe Hawkeye’s bad decision, even other heroes said he should go back to his classic costume. We’re all very happy he listened.

Worst costume ever?

In my own opinion it is Punisher. I like him as a character and all but you think the guys at Marvel coulda thought of something a little more complex than just a balck shirt with a skull on it. Thats my own opinion though.

-BL

Oh, Brock..... are you gonna get it. hehehe You've just lashed out at the heart of many Zombies out there. If you get away with this one you'll be lucky.

I still think the Toad is the worst.

The punisher doesnt wear a costume. The skull is his symbol, used to scare the bejebus at of the bad guys. Yes, marvel did have him in spandex for a while, but look at his current comic, he is badass.

He's not a click(yet) but i'd have to say The Whizzer has the worst costume.

Not only is named after a bodily function, but his costume is bright yellow.

Hey! That the cool Atom!

Okay, I want to first state that I am not deeply offended by this statement in anyway, because I'm not a major dork.

The Punisher's costume is classic. It's eye-catching and iconic, and immediately sums up the character for most people. And the skull is both cool looking and functional. It's bullet proof, and it instills fear into the hearts of superstitious, cowardly criminals. Plus, why would a street-level vigilante who relies on stealth and needs to remain highly mobile at all times, wear a big, complex, clunky superhero outfit?

Oh, and I can't stress this enough: Gambit already has the all-time worst costume. This thread is therefore irrelevant.

Ever seen gambit without the coat. <shiver> that is just terrible looking! the pink thing just doesnt work at all, and his hair! what the hell? no artist can agree on whether it is long and spikey long and floppy, or long and parted! its just ugly. period.

kang. the knee-high purple boots and purple and green triangle sholder pads look ridiculus. and beetle's colors are far off. as a matter of fact, anyone that trys to match purple with yellow or green must be blind.

Has anyone even looked at the Heroclix version of Boomerang????

I won't even play the guy because he looks that weird. And he is a good clix.

Fool Killer or Captain Ultra

Nah I wanna change my vote for Squadron Supreme's shape. He's been running around with that exposed belly and those filthy shorts since the eighties for crying out loud
Oh and I also wanna see Aquaman back in his orange shirt for crying out loud. He's the only guy i know who could pull off an orange shirt.

Hte worst costume is the Key. He is wearring a thong for God's sake. Psylock can pull it of he can't.
