Not the specialty suits, just ones used as the 'main' costume.

I like the originals, but so far I've liked the designs of all the Marvel movies so far a lot.

I do not like JMS, but I do like the costume.

I like Ultimate Thor with the giant belt that Hitch gave him; it'd really be perfect if he had a helmet similar to the movie version.

I've also always like the Thorion costume from the Amalgam project.

Every other costume is a variation on King Kirby's original design.

I voted for the Copiel (JMS) design. I get that Thor doesn't need armor, but it works as a visual shorthand for "warrior".

Its a toss up, for me, between the original and the movie costume.

I've never read a Thor issue ever, but I'll go with the JMS/Copiel design. I was fine with the movie version, but in still shots it looks like plastic, which is lame.

Other than the spandex ones, doesn't every superhero suit look like rubber in the movies? The Dark Knight, Captain America, etc.

Only Iron Man looks like metal but he's a CG construct most of the time anyway.

Cap, in the Avengers, looked more like ballistic nylon or some other kind of dense fabric. In his own movie it was more canvas and leather.

Only a God can be man enough to wear a costume with am exposed mid-riff while kicking ads. More love for the nineties!

I suppose, but I thought Thor's costume should have looked more chainmaily and metallic than it did. It's a minor complaint overall.
