I'm not too keen on the way the Thing's wrist looks broken in that pic though.

Mr. Fantastic looks like John Stewart and The Thing looks tiny.

I've never even heard of any of them other than Jessica Alba.

Ioan Gruffudd is best known for playing Horatio Hornblower on those TV movies that A&E shows all the time. He also had a tiny, tiny role as a the lifeboat leader that goes back looking for survivors in Titanic.
Michael Chiklis played the lead on The Commish, and he is the lead on The Shield.
Jessica Alba is my girlfriend.

I remember The Commish and the guy from it now, just not the name. This better not suck.

I wish A&E showed those all the time. They're great.
(He was also in some show about British peacekeepers in Bosnia, or was it a miniseries? Anyway, I meant to watch it, but never did.)

Indeed, without the white stripes though. But I agree with The Segregation Node, the synthetic "space-fabric" unitards are pretty similar across the board. But so have they been in the magazines as well.

I don't know if you can all them "todays" superheros, since the Fantastic Four are really the oldest Marvel superheroes that anyone has heard of (anyone says "Sub-Mariner", they will be ignored).
Originally, in the early costumes, the uniforms were a bit baggy, like coveralls. Function over form. As time went on, they turned into the tight-spandex sort of costume, but the design remained quite simple. Black boots and gloves over a blue unitard thing, with a "4" symbol on the chest.
Since then, they tend to get new costumes about once a year, all staying within the same general design. (Although the black gloves and boots were white during the 80s and 90s. That's the costume the cartoon went with - the original design, but with white accesories rather than black.).
The only real way these costumes are any different than the originals is that the "4" is on the side, rather than the centre. And the Thing has full trousers rather than just pants (he seems to alternate with every costume change in the comic). And Sue has her tits out, but what did you expect?
-------------------- Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

I've never heard of Ioan Gruffudd, but he looks a little young to play Reed Richards. Or at least too young for the thick gray hair above the ears.
Chris Evans I recognize from teen movies The Perfect Score and Not Another Teen Movie.
Jessica Alba... the subject of many a masturbatory fantasies. The power to turn invisible should be reserved for ugly people, not Jessica Alba.
I'm not sure about the skin tight spandex. In X-Men they all wore matching black leather uniforms instead of the technicolor spandex from the comic. Spider-Man stayed true to the comics costume with a few minor alterations. So maybe a F4 movie could do the same.
