Top 10 Best Dressed Marvel Characters

It’s no secret that superheroes have a pretty distinct fashion sense when it comes to picking a costume for their alter ego. While the vast majority only make any sense in the pages of a comic (and sometimes only barely), it’s rare to see something beyond the usual spandex/massive head-gear combos we usually see.

10. Captain America – The First Avenger

Recommended Videos

Ok, the whole super patriot thing can wear a bit thin with some people, but he’s generally a nice guy and his outfit does the job of pushing the whole America thing.

The outfit in the movie though isn’t the usual silly spandex affair. This is an outfit of leathers and strap, pockets and ammo pouches. It’s something that you don’t often see on some of the older heroes, it’s an outfit that’s actually practical. For that reason alone, Captain America deserves a spot on this list.

9. Deadpool

Deadpool is probably one of the more cooler characters of the Marvel Universe. He started life as a rip-off of DC’s Deathstroke, even having virtually the same ‘real’ name as the other character. However, the ‘Merc with the Mouth’ is an example of what can happen with good writing. His costume takes the usual colour coded spandex affair and augments it with a varied arsenal of weaponry and ammunition that at the very least, will always include his twin katanas.

Obviously, the full head mask serves more than one purpose here. Not only is it an effective, if slightly over the top way of concealing his identity, it also hides the horrors of his face. Wade Wilson suffers from cancer and his super powers stem from an experimental cure that had mixed success. He won’t die of cancer, but he’s not rid of it either, the rate that his body is constantly trying to heal himself from the treatment has left his skin looking like a mass of tumours.

8. Dr. Octopus

For Doc Ock, it’s really the tentacles that steal the show, they’re both ridiculously powerful and quite useful. I bet there are times when you wish you had an extra hand spare, don’t you?

In both the movie and the comics Dr. Otto Octavious is fused with his mechanical arms, learning to control them with will alone. Although, in the comics he’s in control of the arms but in the film, it’s the other way around, with the device imposing its will on him.
