The Crossdressing Power of Deimos!
I say, if you’re a man about to take on the world in a masterful plot of pure evil, why not put on a sexy red velvet, midriff-baring, slit-up-to-the-hips, wide-sleeved dress, with matching pointy slippers? And heck, while you’re at it, get yourself a nice, long-nailed manicure, because if you look good, you’ll defeat good.

Dude, I *love* Deimos. One of my all-time favorite villains. And it’s hot in Skartaris!
Um, that said, this costume was a little bit… off.
Of course, I believe Mike Grell was also the one who designed this Cosmic Boy costume: http://www.legionnaires.com/characterimages/cosmicboygrell.jpg

I always hated that Cosmic Boy outfit, but I didn’t realize Grell designed it. Ugh.
I’m sure Deimos was a great character, but what self-respecting male super-villain wears a halter top? Honestly!

Deimos is cool and all, but am I the only one who’s made the connection between him and Mirror Reality Spock? Give him a bowl cut and [I]viola[/I]: instant scarring!

I was hoping for some HTML tags to kick in right there, but they didn’t feel like it, I guess…

What were they thinking? I totally agree with the this threads title…
