Of the original Furman/Senior character "Death's Head", which body design do you prefer? The big-boot green 'Transformers' one, or the small-boot blue 'Dragon's Claws' one?

And, why?

Probably the green one for nostalgic reasons, but the blue one was pretty snazzy.

Talking of bodies and questions, 'The Body In Question' gets reprinted in the next Death's Head reprint TPB.

I'm going to have to say the Blue One... mainly because when an aquitance of mine that was a DHII fan, back in school oogled me reading the UK comics on Transfans, he suddenly burst out: "Is that Death's Head?? WTF?! He looks horrible!" and then presumed to laugh hysterically.

I then tried to explain the evolution of the character, and showed him the blue version, to wich he replied: "Well that doesn't look so bad.." :o

I kinda like the blue booted Death's Head. I used to have those comics. I do like the other one too. Difficult choice.

I think egreen one looks more 'original' in a design a sense, the blue looks cool but at the same time its like someone just put spandex on him and turned him to an x-man or somthing...

Yeah I agree with Impactor, the green DH looks more like a transformer.

Yes. Looks like the vast majority of people here prefer the green big boot iteration.
