I like

Hats

Boots

Fairytales

Comic book characters

I also like Halloween and Fruit but already have pics for those. And I like dessert but it would be too tempting to eat and I am trying to maintain my new stone zone (thank you Ruby Woo for a new favourite phrase!).

I like comic characters, because interpreted laterally it is open to everyone of whatever interest.

It could be Beano, The Victor, Viz, DC Universe, Marvel, 2000AD, Disney and so on. The only limit there is the imagination.

I vote comics. I think the range of characters, poses, costumes colours, goodies, babies, leather lycra, painted skin... And that's just Marvel.

When you add in all the kids comics and viz there's enough for work everyone without loads of duplicate ideas.

That's my take on it, too - the others will involve a lot of trying to reinvent the wheel - Bond - a dozen chaps in suits finding something inventive to pose with, ditto the same with people looking for new ways to wear a hat.

So if I do something from Lost Girls does that count as a comic, fairytale or both? Or is it out of the running since it's a graphic novel rather than a 'proper' comic book?

Graphic novels works for me. I thought (then dismissed, because I couldn't show off thighs or abs!) of doing Rorschach from Watchmen! You'd have to be a real graphic novel snob to get cross at them being included.
