maybe I can light a fire in this thread with a challenge: I had an idea for Marvel 1876. our civil war has ended, and two of it's great heroes, Captain Steven "America" Rodgers and Lucas Cage. they now travel the world to explore the world their nation is going to be a part of. In africa they discover Cage's parents' homeland, Wakanda, however Cage chooses America and stays with Rodgers. From there they travel to japan (They did hear rumors of a civilization of super-people in the himilayas, the local name translated to "Inhumans") where things are really getting active, including The Wasp, Spider-Man, and Spider-Woman, and Doctor Strange, all as native born japanese having survived the meji era. Then the Fantastic, an air vehicle designed by british engineer Reed Richards, and containing his family passes through an odd Aurora in Greenwich and lands just outside of Yokohama, the passengers all changed.

Zoken always comes up with the coolest ideas :up:

T'Jai- Could Cap's shield stop a half electrified Al Kilya from bonking him with a metal pipe on his way out to the gift shop? That's the real test.
(extremely obscure inside joke.... just move along).

um... yeah and then some... :awesome:

Okay... umm... foot wear, a little TOO extreme. Magno-lypse does look awsome. and to differentiate this Iceman from other incarnations, perhaps he should just use his Ice power to create armoring, not an entire shell. Just thoughts.

Awesome!

oh wow, that's spiderman?

I gotta go with number 1, there all good, but number 1 for me

M.O.Steel · Nov 5, 2009

#3 for me. i like em all also, so i don't see why it can't be all three

I like the Spidey-type goggles from the first one...and the fact that he doesn't have a trenchcoat.
I don't think he needs a trenchcoat to be considered steampunk. Spidey doesn't have a cape or anything that would give him a reason to have a trenchcoat.

For Batman it works, or other dark characters with capes etc...

Not to mention I like being able to see the round head of spidey, the hat isn't needed.

I'm not ripping on the design at all, I'm clearly just pointing out why I like the first design as a Spidey-Steampunk...

But in the end, they are all amazing

you're right dk7. while i like them all also, it makes more sense functionally that spiderman fits #1 the best. never thought about it that way.
