I feel you there. I really regret trading my original Steel Brigade figure away and check ebay periodically to see if he pops back up.

One of the things that strikes me about the modern art (especially with Flash) is that none of the newer artists have ever really been able to improve on the timeless, classic costume designs. Flash is basically the same as the 1956 Carmine Infantino design, just with a lot of extra lines added. It speaks either to how unimaginative the artists are, or just how perfect the original looks truly are.
