    I always figured he had some kinda big, panoramic screen inside the helmet, plus its all bullet proof. No gettin' shot in the head.

    I figured that too. Why does he wear a helmet? To avoid getting shot in the face.

    In the wise words of Christian Bale, "THINK MAN!"

    He doesn't need a helmet, look at his mustache! That thing melts bullets with it's sheer 70's porn star awesomeness.

    The Flash costume mega-rocks.

    The modern Flash costumes are nice but the Golden Age suit is the best in my opinion.

    Somebody post the Secret Six panel with Deadshot and Catman in their black-ops suits to answer his complaints.

    This would be cool, could someone do this?

    The Deadshot costume from the Deadshot mini (with the red tactical gear) is cool, but the trenchcoat is lame.

    Come on, the obvious answer to how the hat stays on is the Speed Force.

    Why would anyone give a shout-out to deadpool on this thread. Don't get me wrong, I f*in love deadpool. I'm pretty sure theres a picture of him under fun in the dictionary.

    But his costume is about as unoriginal as it gets, like deathstroke and spider-man mashed together... hell the fact he looks like spider-man is a running joke.

    I will admit ultimate deadpool is kinda cool though.

    That's a bit of a dick move from Tony. Lets see how well he goes reverse engineering the most advanced cybernetic system on the planet while dealing with severe mental illness.

    Osborn is pretty proficient with the science. Pre-Siege, he made a very nice living selling weaponry he invented. But just because someone is proficient in one area of science doesn't mean they're proficient in another. Osborn may know mechanical engineering, but when it comes to deciphering someone else's spaghetti code that has been worked on for years, he's understandably at a loss.

    I was just thinking that someone could have looted a piece of it when no one was looking, that's all. Much like the Punisher with Cap's mask at the end of Civil War.

    Oh yeah, I'm sure lots of things got looted. Asgard treasury, Iron Patriot armor parts (that head piece would look great on my mantle), baby symbiotes, US Agent leg and arm, and good storytelling to name just a few.

    All right, so apparently there's a male Star Sapphire now, and this is his effing costume.

    Actually that male Sapphire costume is based on the old Predator villain's costume, it's just another take what came from the past and add it to the modern age spin.

    Predator was a male character that lived within Carol.

    It's a crazy story really.
