Let me try to clarify. The one in the picture listed above is the one I'm calling the "Baxter version."
"Giffen's slight redesign" is the one from shortly after Great Darkness.
It's possible that I'm missing one or two Wildfire costume designs from about that time period, too. (Seems like I remember a costume change somewhere between the Cockrum original and Great Darkness.) If anyone has any pics to post, that would be great.
The whole Levitz time is where I'm shakiest, so please, anyone, feel free to correct me or to tell me where I've missed a costume or two.

Knowing full-well that the only way to get people out is to gang-up on them, I'm using the entire list Gary picked so they have at least 2 votes I equally dislike their costumes!

2 more omissions I just noticed: both Andromeda and Kinetix had different costumes after their encounter with the Anomaly. Adding those in now! (And once again, don't worry, previous voters - I doubt either of them will last long.)

Nah! I'll get you in for this round. Actually, I'm extending the first round until tomorrow night (I've been getting ready for a job interview tomorrow morning, as well as... well, finals and stuff!) But I'll have the first round results up tomorrow night!

Thanks! Of course, now I'm going to have to re-read TMK through ZH to refresh my memory for that era's designs ... I re-read the Levitz era about a year ago, but I'm already having a little trouble remembering some of the later designs; may have to skim a few of those while I'm at it.

Blacula and lone Wolf - wow....look likes you have an immediate dislikes of Barry Kitson's designs..I thought that the costume looks good - much better than others in the past. so i am curious - what makes you dislike them?

Supes: keep in mind that this is a Survivor game: they could very well be playing to eliminate the heaviest competition early in the game... it's not necessarily that they dislike Kitson's designs, it could be that they see them as heavy competition for their personal faves.
Questions and answers:
Looking back over the list, Blacula, I actually think the yellow-and-blue costumed Blok isn't represented. I thought I put him in there, but I guess... so many costumes... I'll put him in for the next round. Was that Giffen's design, I think?
Also, yes to your questions on both Snakejectra and Star Boy.
Lone Wolf: I believe Lightle used the same costume that Giffen put Brin in just after Great Darkness. As for the Grell Colossal Boy, I'll add it for the next round as well. I wasn't aware of that one. He sure did like putting men in short pants, didn't he???
Working hard on round 1 results, should have them up within the next couple of hours. (I'm also having to set up the spreadsheet to tabulate these, which is part of what is taking so long... )

The yellow/blue design for Blok was Lightle's.
And Lightle did design a new costume (not a Giffen retread) for T-Wolf in LSH (third series) #12.
