I'm fairly tattooed and I think about how to cover some blank areas all the time. There's a spot on the inside of my right arm that looks like a good place for a comic character (It's bound to happen sooner or later) but the problem is there are too many cool ones for me to decide. Here are my top contenders.
1. Dr Doom. Done up all Jack Kirby style, preferably in rage induced tirade mode.
2. Apocalypse. A close up of his face with a big blue frown.
3. Fin Fang Foom. Also done up Jack Kirby style, laying waste to some city.
4. Thanos. Triumphantly holding up the Infinity Gauntlet while grinning like a lunatic.
5. Galactus. Done up like the cover of Fantastic Four #49, just a big head and two hands with boomy fingers.
6. Milk & Cheese. Boozed up and carrying blunt objects to beat some fools down with.
I'm still undecided on this, all are strong possibilities. I briefly thought of getting the Savage She Hulk but I really don't want to have to explain why there's a green woman wearing nothing but a shredded slip on my arm to a bunch of fuddy duddies. I also thought about the Rhino but in the end I couldn't justify it. He's one of my favorite characters but he's not that high up on the list.

Deadpool. I sent him to prison, not get a tatoo to commemorate that.

Definitely Dr. Doom. I've got Doom done up Kirby style on my left arm, which is my Marvel arm (the right one belongs to DC). I've never once regretted getting it.

No love for Galactus. I say go with Galen. Doom is a badass, but he hardly The Devourer of Worlds is he?

I'm surprised Milk and Cheese is winning right now. I thought for sure Dr. Doom was going to take it.
If I had to pick right now Doom would be the one but I'm really thinking that if done right Fin Fang Foom would be epic. Oh these decisions....

Dazzler! *painfully optimistic look on his face*
No, seriously, Galactus.
Or maybe Uatu, the Watcher. He's cool.

I say go with Dr. Doom. I've also always wanted to get a comic tattoo and I think I've finally decided on the one I'm going to get. What do you guys think?  |

I'm a big fan of the X-Men, and these are two of my favorite characters and I really just like this picture of them. My fiancee and I have already decided that when are baby is born we're naming him Remy. Yeah, I'm a Gambit fan.  |

If I didn't have so many problems with needles (I clench my teeth and look away even for a flu shot), I would get a Sinestro Corps tattoo

oh, my bad. I was thinking about getting it put on my calf. Ok, good. It's a vertically oriented image so that will work out perfect. The thing to remember is that the tattoo will not look exactly like that image, there might be a few shades missing here and there, but if you go to the right inker then it will be pretty close. The lesson here, do your research first before you get it done. For every tattoo artist who cranks out awesome work there are 20 hacks who specialize in Goldberg armbands and butterfly tramp stamps. |

I know a tattoo artist that is really good, a little pricey but the guy is a fantastic artist. I've got 3 tats already, and I always avoid guys that are just getting started and just all around shitty parlors.
