Clearly they are running out of true CLASSICS!
I'll take Ms Marvel and Wonder Man. Crystal maybe. Bit of paint might get
her more on track. Sentry is a fake character, and Mr. Sinister means
nothing to me.

the sentry is such a friggin' lame character! right down to the big "S" on his costume!!! could have dealt with him if his origin wasn't shoe-horned into marvel continuity...rip-off characters are nothing new to either franchise.
ms. marvel & wonder man look pretty sweet. crystal doesn't look bad enough to skip...perhaps i'll work up the guts to appropriately alter her costume. gotta start with power man's pants, though...that superman blue just doesn't work!

Sentry and Crystal almost look related somehow, though Sentry has prettier hair :^)

JB,
What are your thoughts on Ms. Marvel as a character? Whether you realize it or not, you are actually a big contributor to her enduring popularity among the over 20-something crowd, despite never having worked on one of her signature titles.

Not a whole lot of connection to the character. First "met" her, as Carol Danvers, in the Kree/Skrull War issues of THE AVENGERS (Tho that turned out to be the Super Skrull!), and was unimpressed with her debut as a superhero -- tho much relieved that the name "Ms. Marvel" went to her, and not Jean Grey as originally planned.I do very much like Dave's redesign of her costume, tho -- and, as noted upthread, that Eaglemoss made it black, as it is supposed to be!
