Green Lantern has a ring. Savant has her Seven-League Boots. Doctor Fate has a helmet. The use of super-accessories has a long comic tradition, ranging from The 3-D Man’s glasses to Cliff Secord’s stolen backpack, and the type of accessory can say a lot about the hero who uses it. The Gokaiger’s cell-phone style morphers mark them as young millenials with a lot to say, while Winged Victory’s magic necklace is a literal moment of drawing her battle-sword. Heck, there’s even a few magic belt-buckles out there (We miss you, Captain Thunder!), leading to today’s super-enhanced query…
The MS-QOTD (pronounced, as always, “misquoted”) has always thought that a power gauntlet like Fred Savage wanted in ‘The Wizard’ would be SOOOOO bad, asking: Which type of super-accessories would you choose for your new superhero persona?

I need some cool gauntlets, and a cape is a must. I know they are impractical, but that’s why supers operate on the rule of cool.
A hat that never blows off in the wind furling my trench coat as I spring into action.
