ITT, character design elements you love.

Doesn't matter how under- or over-used they are

Pumpkinheads, for example. A character with a jack-o-lantern for a head always manages to catch my interest

Chevrons are also really cool (and by extension, those pointy masks like Hawkeye and Wolverine wear. Same effect)

Creepy masks in general.
Bonus points if you can't see the eyes.

That's why Pumpkinhead movies were such a disappointment to me.

Tacticool when it's done well.

It's just classy, and it always looks good on villains.

I know it's rather mundane, but I really like it when a character, especially a villain, wears a gold watch and a ring.

Full face masks.
Basically any time that we never get to see the person's face or even their eyes. Especially on villains.

Human faces actually look comical on super villains. They're way more imposing when they're just an idea behind a mask.
>>
Fairly simple, undertoned and underwhelming characters that suddenly go full dakka with some unpacking mode

Theatre characters that dance in a non-friendly manner and/or rely on masks for expressions. Actual wooden masks with facial expressions, not superhero sock masks.

I'm a sucker for the classic pulp hero get-up. Coat, hat, mask.
And I like how the characters had to wear an additional iconic item on top of these, like Wesley's gas mask, or The Shadow's scarf and opera cape, or The Spider's vampire make-up
