Sorry to momentarily hi-jack MechaGodzilla's thread, but yeah, as tingramretro says, the original Cap Britain costume was the red one with the golden lion on the chest. Soooooo much cooler looking that the red, white and blue monstrosity, with ludicrous thigh-high boots, that came afterwards. Here's a pic... Remember: British, therefore best! Who's the artist there - looks a bit like Gary Leach? it isn't a real cover, though? No idea who drew that, although it's certainly very nice. ...and no, it's not a real cover.

Dear Everyone,
When, I posted that "Strongest Marvel Heroes Chart explained by Spiderman" ... I wanted to share that with you because it is the coolest thing that I saw at Marvel Comics and I shared that out of JOY - not trying to be accurate of how strong this character is and that. Please understand what I'm saying and I just wanted to share my favorite pictures that I found in the vast regions of the Internet that I find to be still fascinate me of today!

I'm honestly not trying to rain on your parade, Mecha. But with Sasquatch and The Thing you've moved from costumes to character design. Ben's costume is shorts. And Sasquatch, as far as I can tell is nekkid. I would submit that is kind of a lack of costume.
I love your enthusiasm though.

Comic fans had already been corrupted by Giant-Size Man-Thing.

Ah yes, the extremely incorrect strength chart. It did seem fairly random... I only find a few flaws. Doc Sampson should be with the super heavy weights. Colossus should be moved up to Heavy weights . Hank Mccoy should be moved up one, also.

The Thing has held his own against the Hulk more than once, and Luke Cage should be higher up, too. And Captain Britain, even in his original form (which was admittedly weaker than after his redesign/power boost) is definitely stronger than the likes of Tigra, Nighthawk or Jack Russell. I'd also question Iron Man being in the top bracket.

I don't think she was. You're right, she should be placed higher.
