Can you guess the comic book character based on a 12-pixel graphic of their torso?
(I got 20 of 21, largely because an oddity in the graphic that I paid too much attention to.)

This test may be too easy. I got 15 of 21 (and should have had 16, but I hit the wrong button on one question), and I have never been a reader of superhero comics. What I know about most of them I’ve picked up by osmosis.
That’s actually not surprising.
1. A number of questions lend themselves to intelligent guessing (a green outfit is unlikely to be worn by the Red Bee).
2. The famous heroes are so iconic (Supes, Bats, Robin, the FF) that the simple abstraction of color and pattern is all that’s needed>
I got 18/21 – Geek by osmosis.
20. One was apparently Commander Courage. I’d never heard of him or the other choices on that one.
Correction: It seems that he appeared in a story arc in Marvel Comics Presents, and I urrently have several of those issues. So, I have heard of, and seen, him, but do not remember him.
On the CoH boards, that seemed to be the one hero that everyone either got a miss on, or else just guessed.
