At first, I thought you were asking my opinion of which Shroud outfit I'd prefer. Duh...his costume hasn't changed much (if at all)...the question at hand is about Marvel. I like Blue Marvel's Ultimates duds. It's a smart redesign with a leaner Marvel who's gotten older and lost some muscle mass. However, I'm not a super-hero jacket guy and that throws it off a bit for me. I also love the Macedonian style helm and gladiatorial boots of the original costume, but the symbol on his chest is a little too busy. Ultimately, I'm a fan of simplicity in super-costumes, so my #1 choice is the costume from Original Sin (which I believe is his standard). The simple design with over-sized cape and gleaming arm-bands are befitting of a ridiculously powerful "Superman-esque" character. It seems (to me, at least) that comic artists often go that route when a character is intended to be a paragon of might and virtue. Almost as if the unwritten rule is that you must go retro for the 'show-stopper' heroes. Thor, Gladiator, Hyperion, etc...I would hope for a spare helmeted head accessory for the best of both worlds.

But honestly, I'd be happy with any of these three Blue Marvel iterations...and a couple of the alternative time-line versions, like my avatar.
