SubscribeNote: For being the namesake of the House of Ideas, the the classic Mahr Vehl — Captain Marvel — never quite had a costume that lived up to his potential. In 2005, artist Steve McNiven re-envisioned the costume for the miniseries Ultimate Secret that played up his militaristic Kree roots with the green of Vehl’s original costume along with some more Power Cosmic-esque touches. Although this Ultimate version of the character never quite got his chance to shine (yet), the design is something memorable and unique.. – Chris A.

/ November 20, 2012This is going to make me no friends what so ever, but this will always be the definitive Mahr-Vehl costume to me.

/ November 20, 2012I always had a soft heart for Jim Starlin’s Captain Marvel. Same with his version of Warlock.

/ November 20, 2012Always loved this. I’d hoped that Ultimate Iron Man would slowly transition to something similar having been exposed to the tech, but instead he jumped from his (awesome) Hitch design into a standard 616 looking thing.

/ November 20, 2012Wasn’t this the design they used for EMH too?
Chris A.
/ November 21, 2012A variation of this, but yes.

/ November 21, 2012It needs nega bands, redesigned as they can be…
Toom
/ November 21, 2012The less said about the design work on Ultimates 3 the better.

/ December 14, 2012I always like the updated version that Steve did here. I especially loved the transformation scene.
