It's a very silver-age way of doing things... just get the cast there in as few panels as possible.
Quote: I really tried to get a cape on there, but with Hero Machine's option I couldn't find one that worked. Also wasn't sure what colour to make it; there is already so much red and yellow I didn't know if those colours would work for the cape. I debated doing a green one (for some incomprehensible reason a red and yellow costume with green cape works for Mr. Miracle) but it looked too random.
Do you have a suggestion for cape colour?
Well, obviously from the banner I like to use the primary colors on Hatty, Red cape, blue jeans and cap and yellow symbols on a white shirt... so that's four colors if you count white. If I were just going to reinvent him with two colors, I might go red and white for the Canadian flag. Three colors could be any of the above. Classically, blue often represented highlights of black, such as Spider-man's costume, or perhaps it would be a baby blue because that ink printed well on cheap paper, such as for Cap's or Superman's uniforms.

How does this one look? It probably captures the traditional Hatman look more, but should be hokey enough for the Silver Age (I hope). I was going to go with a sleevless look (instead of that white stripe down the arm) but to get that H look on the torso I have to use that particular overshirt layer; I still get that homage to the t-shirt look Hatman usually sports though.
I'm not sure if it look like something from the Silver Age or the Legion of Superheroes version of Hatman...though really I guess that could be the same thing.
