>a guy in a plain green shirt has one of the most iconic and perfect designs in comic book history
How is that even possible?

>>149501896 (OP)
By being based

>>149501896 (OP)
It's simple and does the job

>>149501896 (OP)
He stole the curls from Osborn anyways. The shirt is all he has.

>>149501896 (OP)
same way there's a blindfolded robot who became one of the most iconic designs in vidya

>>149501896 (OP)
He's a big guy

same barber as the osborns

>>149501947
sandman's.....popular in porn?

>>149502570
>he doesn't have a Marko folder

>>149502587
He's probably liked by bara fans.

>>149501896 (OP)
he kinda looks like amazo

>>149501896 (OP)
>iconic and perfect designs
It was one of his specialties

>>149501934

>>149501896 (OP)
Secondary colors

>>149501896 (OP)
Consider the acronym 'KISS'.

>>149502991
knights in Satan's service?
bro, what does Detroit rock city have to do with this?

>>149501896 (OP)
That's clearly a striped shirt, not a plain shirt.

Get your shit together OP.

>”Owari da.”

>>149503800
Deserved, sandman confirmed best character

>>149503934
Nah, Fixed is based

>>149501896 (OP)
He's a long established character with a design that's more or less almost always stayed the same

>>149501896 (OP)
It's an uncommon design choice

Sand isn't green

>>149501896 (OP)
It's not.

>>149502850
Amazo's original design is pretty bad and no one cares about it.

>>149501896 (OP)
That's literally Steve from Blues Clues, not original at all

>>149501912
this

>>149501896 (OP)
What about the giant hammer hand?

>>149501896 (OP)
Most of the time less is more. No need to try to go over the top.

>>149501912
Based on what?

>>149501896 (OP)
anyone know the reason why they never showed him in spiderman(tom holland) he was just made of sand most of the time he was on screen, was it something to do with him looking very aged? they changed electro to look normal so im abit confused

>>149501896 (OP)
It's simple and identifiable. More importantly Sandy is someone who's rarely going to be seen in a fancy costume regularly anyways with the way his powers work so giving a public hood a more casual outfit works. Plus the time he did get a costume it was..... this.

>>149513652
They likely just didn't want to pay the actor.

>>149513681
oh so he just called in the lines? because i swear its his voice

>>149512173
tru dat

>>149513697
He probably also did some mocap work

>>149513663
I don't think we EVER got an explanation for where he got the costume or why he stopped wearing it

>>149514708
wouldnt it literally be cheaper to just have him in a green striped tee instead of just having a cgi person there, surely thats gonna make it more expensive

Steve Ditko's designs could be weird, but you will never forget them.

>>149514732
>"My daughter said it looked stupid."

>>149514732
I want to say I remember him getting it from the Masters of Evil

>>149501896 (OP)
he's literally just a dude that has sand powers, but at the same time the shirt sticks out enough that you can immediately tell it's the character at a glance, he doesn't need a flashy over the top costume or anything because it'd ultimately take away from him

>>149515104
you mean the Frightful Four?

>>149513652
either they didn't want to pay him or he was busy shooting something else, he's one of the few characters you could get away with doing that for too aside from Lizard

>>149515401
Now that you say it, yes. That rings a bell.

>>149515402
thats fair, i think he was filming twisted metal at the same time maybe?
it was just weird to me that they would spend more money to make him cgi rather than having him there and i was hoping someone would have a concrete answer.

>>149514732
What the fuck are you talking about
The Wizard made the costume for him when Sandman was a part of the Frightful Four. It wasn't just for the looks either, it had a functional purpose - it allowed Sandman to inject various chemicals into himself to be more versatile with his sand.

>>149502850
Ultimate Sandman even more

>>149513652
the actor was filming something else where he had crazy facial hair and couldn't shave it off, so they kept him CGI i think

>>149513663
honestly that's not that bad of a costume on its own merits but it doesn't fit for someone like Sandman

>>149516683
oh, i genuinely appreciate that anon

>>149501896 (OP)
Was he a good sandman?
>>149501912
Fpbp

>>149509797
I personally like JLU Amazo.

>>149502999
Keep it simple, stupid.

>>149516774
His second best adaptation

>>149517102
Erm, what's the first?

>>149517330
Spectacular probably

luke cage is better

>>149517333
Yes

>>149513663
He looks like a New God from DC.

>>149517392
Jack Kirby did the design

>>149516774
Of coarse

Sandman is one of my favorite spider-man villains.

>>149501934
>t. Byrne

>>149519711
I liked when he redeemed himself

Does Sandman have any good stories about going legit and, like, getting a job in construction or something? Feels like a lot of villains could just sell their skill set for good money, instead of robbing banks.

>>149501896 (OP)
Hydro-Man rip off

>>149520321
He worked for Silver Sable if that counts

>>149517341
Sand > Power

>>149501896 (OP)
hammertime

>>149501896 (OP)
Works since his power lets him shape shift which gets used so often there's little reason to make a complex suit

>>149501912
Based on what?

>>149523699
You mean like in the Silver Sable run?

>>149501896 (OP)
Know ones what it's like, to be the Sandman...

>>149501896 (OP)
Would the Hulk have become iconic without his purple pants?

>>149524424
Sandman and Plastic Man share a lot in common

>>149524437
How did you fuck up Behind Blue Eyes that quickly, anon? It was the second word of the sentence.

>>149524568
That reminds me of the amalgam verse they tried to set up. I don't think I have the picture for it though.

>>149501896 (OP)
I like how the waves and the stripes represent sand waves

Sandman being on the Avengers would have been very interesting. A former Spidey villain sometimes backing up Spider-Man or going against him as part of that team would have been cool.

>>149501896 (OP)
>sandman.png
Like the Neil Gaiman story?

>>149524424
I miss good guy sandy.

>>149527386
Wasn't he on the Avengers?

>>149501934
Half the cast had the exact same haircut in comics back then. Even Peter looked the same.

>>149504320
… if you’re a delusional Genndydrone.

>>149501896 (OP)
Because it just works.
>Realistic and grounded (pun intended) costume
>Doesn't clearly advertise his powers/theme, but does contrast well with them when they're on display
>Works well as both a modern design, while also harkening back to the classic goon of early pulp comics
>Surprisingly unique for basically just being civilian clothes, without being gaudy in color

>>149531341
Well said

>>149516774
Second best Sandman

>>149516774
Second best Sandman

>>149513663
hey he needed some formal wear for when he fought the Fantastic Four, can't go around in a striped shirt even if he changes it to purple for the team theme

>>149525505
This?

>>149504320
based on what

>>149529723
Go read the FF special mini that dropped yesterday. It's ostensibly about my boy the Thing but Good Guy Sandman showed up in a story and it's great.

>>149534633
Yeah, him.

>>149536048
Nice

>>149536048
I will do that

Im still amazed that Spidey villians go from fat old man who is smart enough to make his metal arms into a threat to apocalyptic level threats who are so stupid they can be beaten by Spiderman

>>149527585
Reading Is Believing™

>>149539005
really makes you pine for the geriatric with wings

>>149501896 (OP)
>"Plain green shirt"
>Sweater with stripes

IDIOT

>>149501896 (OP)
Where is he ranked among Marvillains?

>>149540618
He’s an a lost spidey villain so that pretty much puts him in the a list in general

>>149540618
Thoroughly stuck in the "Absorbing Man tier". Obscenely powerful but thankfully too dumb/unambitious to be the world class threat he is capable of being so is relegated to being some prick's mook or generic bank robber

>>149539944
jaja

>>149501896 (OP)
How much can this dude bench?
