Yeah, but Earth 616 requires fewer keystrokes than “Mainstream Marvel Continuity,” and I was feeling lazy. Besides, my contempt for Quesada is nigh unto my hatred of jelly beans, rottweilers, and Aragorn, so telling me that he’d be annoyed to hear me say that only makes me want to leave him about 100 voice mails doing so.
There are surprisingly few blondes around, so John Constantine would be pretty noticeable.
Braniac 5 from the Legion of Super Heroes is green so he probably doesn’t count.
Jubilee and Gateway (yeah I guess I’m getting old) would stand out, just because of their ethnic background.
Longshot has only four fingers on each hand and a mullet.
Nick Fury has an eyepatch.
Psylocke has to be one of the few purple haired Asian chicks.
Well, by this qualification, doesn’t that exclude Wolverine, or anyone else with a “distinctive physical appearance?” What, for the sake of your question, is the limit of what’s acceptable? I mean, Bishop from the X-Men has a big M tattooed over his eye, is that too much, or no? Rogue has that skunk stripe in her hair. Gambit’s got funky red/black eyes.
No fair cheating!
Who are these twoguys?
Who’s this?
Who’s this?
Who are these people?
This one would be easy even without the dialog.
Who are these three fellows?
Not really picking on Batsy, it’s just that some discussion about what Bruce Wayne was seen doing in Crisis #7 got me thinking about this.
I took it to mean ‘within the range of real-world human variation, with allowances for artistic interpretation.’ By lets in Wolverine, Bishop, & Rogue, but not Grimm & Brainy (and probably not Gambit.)
Anybody with an obviously non-human appearance doesn’t count. How many other lumpy orange rock guys are there that you could think it might be somebody besides Ben Grimm?
Quesada hates the term 616? I’m going to use it all the time now. (Oh, Quesada, how I hate thee)
Well, some characters are based on real people, so that should make them recognizable except when the artist is a total hack: Hal Jordan (Green Lantern) was Gil Kane’s take on Paul Newman, Ultimate Nick Fury is very explicitly Samuel L. Jackson…
Hobbes: Is Amazon girl’s super power the ability to squeeze that figure into that suit?
Calvin: Nah, they can all do that.
All I ask is the opportunity to try and pick out any of the female characters out of costume.
Dang, you spoiled the whole idea. 
I see what you mean. He’s still recognizable as not Golden Age Bruce Wayne, though, by his nerdy build and brown hair. Bruce always has that blue-black hair seen only in comics and a more athletic build.
Lack of nipples.
I’ll say…Bruce Wayne and Lucius Fox.
Bruce Wayne again, but could have easily been Dick Grayson.
Bruce Wayne again.
Bruce, The Huntress, and don’t know the other two.
Bruce and Commissioner Gordon.
Alfred, Bruce, and I accidentally saw the third one was Luthor, but I wouldn’t have gotten it.
:eek: How many boobs does she have?
Even her boobs have boobs!
Muscles. Peeg has a distinctly muscular build that most other heroines don’t have.
Spidey… mebbe. Superman, no question.
Captain America. If drawn right, Steve Rogers is unmistakable. Posture, mostly.
I was wondering why that wasn’t in the OP.
Wolverine’s height is irrelevant; it’s his dumbass haircut that gives him away. (Yes he’s sometimes gone without it, but that’s like 1% of his appearances)
Storm - not too many young black ladies with white hair.
Hal Jordan - just by virtue of having brown Blago-styled hair in the DCU.
Omni Man - Rocking 'stache.
Sabertooth - fangs.
Bruce Banner - flop sweat.
Mostly because I was never that much of a Marvel reader. Also, at the time I was an active reader/collector, Wolverine was a peripheral character in a goofy yellow outfit. He didn’t take on his current importance for Marvel or fans until years later. So, I just didn’t think of him.
Don’t forget those purple trou. 
Because I’m reading a DC comic.
