The best costumes from underrated Marvel heroes.
Not all Marvel heroes are as well known as A-list Avengers like Spider-Man or Iron Man, but some of the publisher's most underrated vigilantes still have costumes to rival the very best. A great costume is a huge part of a great superhero, with clear, bold aesthetics fixing these crime-fighters in the minds of fans. Of course, costumes can often be practical too, providing armor or equipment which otherwise wouldn't make sense.
11 Silver Sable Silver Sable first appeared in Tom DeFalco and Ron Frenz's The Amazing Spider-Man #265. She's a butt-kicking mercenary that has hunted down war criminals, all without any superpowers. However, she is an extremely skilled markswoman, swordswoman, gymnast, combatant, and martial artist, as well as working with the skilled crew known as the Wild Pack.
9 Dazzler A fun and unique character, Dazzler was designed as part of a joint venture by Marvel and Casablanca Records, with the intent of releasing albums from the fictional pop star - an idea that ultimately fell through. In the comics, Alison Blaire is a mutant with the ability to convert sound energy into light and energy beams. A singer and performer, she moonlights as a superhero when teams like the X-Men and A-Force need her.
7 White Tiger White Tiger is a legacy hero, beginning with Hector Ayala in Bill Mantlo, Yvette Perez, and George Pérez's Deadly Hands of Kung Fu #19. The mantle later passed to FBI agent Angela Del Toro, and now resides with Hector's sister Ava Ayala. White Tiger has been a member of many hero teams, namely the Mighty Avengers with Luke Cage and Power Man, the New Avengers while assisting the team, and the Defenders with a slew of other supers like Elektra and Spider-Woman.
Adam Brashear's backstory is tragic - he was one of Marvel's first superheroes, but was asked to retire by the president after the public found out he was African-American. Blue Marvel's costume is therefore designed to evoke an earlier age of heroism, originally positioning him as an echo of Superman, but one who was held back by human prejudice - using white and blue rather than Clark Kent's red and yellow.
