Review: Taskmaster #1
The redesign was okay, but the classic costume is the best. The hooded cape doesn't totally make sense for someone who imitates physical moves, but it does when you consider that some of those moves are probably Moon Knight's. MK uses his cape for feats of misdirection at times (concealing weapons or holding his body to one side when the cape makes it look like he's standing straight - that type of thing). Taskmaster has probably seen and copied a few of those along the way. Also, I think the fact that the costume doesn't make him look credible gives him an extra edge of being underestimated - fatal to his enemies.
It was enjoyable.
My only gripe though, really? They had to use that REALLY dated Monty Python line? I mean, that's REALLY dated! That's like springing up "Luke I am your father!"
