So I was playing around at the drawing board tonight, and skimming through Joe Kubert's super-hero book, and in it he had a design for a Egyptian/Coptic based ancient super-hero, and I started thinking what if they redesigned Dr. fate using that Coptic motif, and that led me to start doing a little sketching, until I needed up with this.... just for giggles... I should have been working on character designs for a story I am doing for the studio, but I procrastinated doing this instead... -M

I'd have to look around for the drawing but I designed a costume in the very early '80s for a Scorpio character whose costume looked almost identical to the black Spidey costume Mike Zeck came up with a year or two later. The only difference was that instead of a huge white spider on his chest, my dude had a blood-red scorpion on his, with the tail wrapping around the back of his neck. Pure coincidence, natch.
Cei-U! I summon the shared graphic sensibilities!

I like that Fate redesign (thank you for not doing the half-helmet), but something about it makes me think villain.
I can't think of many redesigns other than Batman (blue & grey w/oval) that I've cared for, and I LOVE that. Actually, if Dr Fate started with the half-helemt then I like that redesign too.

This was a design I did for an old hall of Justice contest. I really liked the Yellow and white look Dr. Light wore in the post breakdowns Justice league Europe/International run but I felt it looked better with the yellow parts being the accents and the suit itself being white (in the comics it was the other way 'round) I toyed with the idea of the cape actually being a hardlight construct of sorts

Nice redesign for Fate. I might even tweak it some more. Seeing that actually gives some ideas to play around with it.
