Forgot the ultimate costume of that era of the Legion.
A white man (Cosmic Boy of the Legion of Superheroes) with black hair and sideburns wearing black gloves and a black swimsuit with extensions up the sides of his torso to cover his nipples, leaving the center of his chest and abs, as well as his shoulders and legs, bare. Above, there is a box that reads "Editor's note: What's new? Uniforms for Cosmic Boy and Colossal Boy! Tha's what's new!" A speech bubble from the man says, "I... can't Light Lass!"

Post you from a different era.

Trying to be straight and femme, with my roommate's dog at Hallowe'en circa 1992 or 93.
A long-haired brunette white woman in goth-ish black choker, spiked wristbands, black books, denim jacket, jeans, and a belt made of chain, crouches on a wood parquet floor arranging the Boy Scout kerchief on a small black dog (Schipperke).

A birthday card from my first, best boss, who has been gone for nearl 2 decades now. She left it on the lab bench for me to find when I came in at midnight to do microbiology lab cultures for the next day’s classes.
A watercolor painting of the gate to Moria (by JRR Tolkien), with a distant view of it across the lake. The back of the card with the Moria gate painting, handwriting reading: Happy Birthday, Mellon Lois Cl— Do you share my enjoyment of Tolkien

Ephemera, the sequel to Wonder City Stories, supercollides a trip to Faerie, ghosts, and reality TV into a mashup of saving the world! www.judemclaughlin.com/fiction/ #queerauthor #transcharacter
The cover of Wonder City Stories: EPHEMERA, with 3 different scenes: in the top left, a young white woman, Nereid, in blue superhero spandex, holding roses and looking like she's enjoying the green countryside around her; in the top right, a middle-aged black woman with short natural hair and large earrings looking over her shoulder at the viewer, the background behind her a starscape; and across the bottom, a young black man in pink-tinted glasses, a dapper purple waistcoat and trousers, white shirt rolled up at the sleeves, and a cream tie, his medium fade haircut and goatee perfect, looks at the viewer from in front of a Victorian Painted Lady style house.

Wonder City Stories: what happens when Armistead Maupin's Tales of the City supercollides with @kurtbusiek.bsky.social's Astro City! www.judemclaughlin.com/fiction/
Blue-themed cover of Wonder City Stories, with four figures in superhero action poses in the middle of a city street: a middle-aged white woman in a corporate suit and heels talking on the phone while running toward the left (Suzanne); an elderly man in a blue and gold tuxedo-themed superhero costume (Mr. Metropolitan) smiling in the center-front of the view; a young white woman with brown hair in a blue spandex superhero costume gesturing water into existence to the right (Nereid); and a tall, brown-skinned, short-haired butch woman in short-sleeved shirt and cargo shorts, carrying an enormous backpack with a rainbow flag poses with one hand on her hip (Megan Amazon).

Timeline cleansing: some shiny art. #jewelry #queerartist #beads #shinies #sparklebutch
A primarily blue glass necklace with spots of green, a pair of large flat ceramic tree beads, and a silver metal leaf-shaped fastener curled up in the sun on a slightly battered white Victorian windowsill. Some of the blue beads have gold stars and moons on them, and some of the blue beads are star-shaped.

The cover of Wonder City Stories: 4 individuals on a city street, including an elderly balding apparently white man in a blue superhero uniform that looks a bit like a tuxedo with a short gold cape over one shoulder, smiling and running toward the viewer; a middle-aged white woman with brown hair in a grey corporate suit and heels in a running action pose while talking into her cell phone to the left; a young white woman with brown hair wearing a blue and white spandex superhero uniform making water appear in the air to the right; and in back, a tall, stocky brown woman with short black hair in cargo shorts and a short-sleeved shirt, carrying a huge backpack topped with a pride flag.

Grey haired and bespectacled, this white trans masc individual wears blue and white flannel under a snoozy orange creamsicle cat. There is a helplessly trapped but besotted look in their eye. One of the cat’s front paws is aloft, revealing pink beans.

Straight up Nazi punching.
Early Captain American, with the non-round shield and unattached mask, punches Hitler, whose face is extremely distressed. Text says, "Smashing thru, Captain AMERICA came face to face with Hitler ---"

I *loved* Suikoden 5. I loved that the motivation for the plot was sibling love, that our MC was a prince who could not inherit the throne, the political maneuvering that was very true to the Outlaws of the Marsh that is Suikoden's inspiration. Also, the number of outlandishly queer characters.
Cover of the videogame Suikoden V, which has the Prince front and center (a white-haired twink boy with swooshy red-to-yellow gradient scarf, black tights, white and black shoes, blue shorts, a red and gold buttcape, and long black gloves, wielding his 3-part staff in an action pose. His dark-haired bodyguard stands behind him in an action pose. Behind them is a massed portrait of the many many characters in the game.

I loved playing Marvel Superheroes as a TTRPG. It had a simple mechanic, the FASERIP stats, and lent itself to homebrew rules and also concept characters. It was SO much faster to do chargen than any of the other big superhero RPGs of the time (especially Champions).
The blue cover of the MARVEL SUPER HEROES Players' Book by TSR, with images of the Human Torch, Dr Strange, Captain Marvel (the flying black woman with an afro in white and black spandex), the Hulk, Spider-man, Mr Fantastic, Wolverine (in orange and brown uniform), the Thing, Daredevil, Iron Man (in white and red armor), Captain America (Steve Rogers), Thor (masculine), She-Hulk (in Fantastic Four uniform), and Nick Fury (the white one).

My controversial favorite of the Final Fantasy franchise, 9 is really the last of Square's incredibly baroque plots and has some of the most whimsical character designs. Just wholesome fun, with Rat People Riverdancing to defend their land!
The cover of the Playstation game FINAL FANTASY IX, with pictures of a dark-haired white girl in an orange jumpsuit, white blouse, and red gloves; a short being in a blue coat with a tall brown wizard hat, only yellow eyes visible under the hat; a goofy-looking white man in armor with a huge sword over his shoulder; a cute blond twink in a blue vest and blue pants, a weapon on his hip and a monkey tail on his butt; and a hard-to-parse individual with red hair on the right.

Happy 75th birthday to Sigourney Weaver!
3 images of Sigourney Weaver in Ghostbusters 2016: an older white woman with highlighted brown hair in an updo, wearing square hornrim glasses, a white shirt with the collar turned up, a bolo tie, black vest , and beige lab coat. In one picture she's wearing oversized yellow rubber gauntlets and holding a small device in one hand. On one lapel of the lab coat, she is wearing a brooch with a large U crossed with a screw, similar to Holtzmann's necklace.
