Marvel needs to do a steampunk universe line just based on the awesomeness of that [Iron Man](http://www.sillof.com/images/Customs/Victorian%20Avengers/C-VM-IM.JPG). And just look at his [Justice League](http://www.sillof.com/images/Customs/Gaslight/GJL%20Desktop.JPG)! ---

The “Steampunk” looked okay (never was a big fan of the look, but I recognize it as a distinctive style), but I really dug the “Star Wars, 1942” look. I can just hear the Cantina Band cranking out some Glen Miller, and picture the Millenium Falcon as a B-25; or maybe a tramp steamer.
