>>77587291No, they had their own stinkers. Several of the New Gods are lackluster and the Creeper only looks good from a design theory perspective.
>>77587477I'd say it requires not only a deft hand at design but also attention to intent on the part of the original creator. Take Orion for an example. Boring, simplistic design that looks too generically superheroic for an atomic age space god. Compare that to Cliff Chiang's redesign, all he did was turn it into a jacket and pants, tweak the colors, and add a bit of detailing and suddenly Orion looks like he'd be home in any Raygun Gothic/space opera story.
