Line 20:
* In an issue of ''[[Books of Magic]]'', [[Zatanna]] is having a conversation about good and evil with the [[Affably Evil]] Tala. The latter is wearing a particularly stylish hat. Zatanna finishes her argument about how good is better with "It's the only thing that keeps me from stealing your hat." Not that Zatanna is any [http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/ee/Zatanna-hughes.png slouch] in the headgear department herself.
* ''[[Runaways]]'': Molly Hayes has a whole collection of [[Nice Hat|Nice Hats]].
* [[Watchmen (Comic Bookcomics)|Watchmen]]: Rorschach wears a fedora. During the [[Film of the Book|movie version]], {{spoiler|during the fight with Ozymandius}}, whenever his hat falls off, he won't fight until he's put it back on. This seems to hint that he considers it to be a part of his 'body', as he does his mask.
* ''[[Alpha Flight]]'' villain/hero Smart Alec has a big, bulky helmet that also enhances his intellect and feeds him information at a superhuman rate.
* The Mad Hatter is a [[Batman]] villain who not only has a hypnotic (literally) chapeau of his own, but who's fascinated with all headwear, especially the nicest one of all-- Batman's cowl.
Line 29:
* Dum Dum Dugan from ''[[Howling Commandos|Sgt. Fury and his Howling Commandos]]'' is very attached to his bowler. A major subplot in one of the issues involves the hat getting destroyed and Dugan's attempts to replace it. (His [[The Squad|squad-mates]] get together to buy him a new one. D'awwwww.)
* [[The Sandman]]: Death of the Endless has a floppy hat collection. She also borrows Emperor Norton's hat (see Real Life below) when she comes to collect him.
** Can't forget Dream's trademark Alien-in-a-gas-mask helm (a [[Shout -Out]] to the 1950s Sandman series), which he dons whenever he has serious business to take care of.
* The Shade normally sports one in ''[[Starman (Comic Book)|Starman]]'', but he occasionally swaps out for a variety of other hats.
* Also from DC: Both [[The Question|Questions]] have nice hats.
* In ''Calamity Jack'', the sequel to ''[[RapunzelsRapunzel's Revenge (Comic Book)|Rapunzels Revenge]]'', [[Action Girl|Action]] [[Cowboy|Cowgirl]] Rapunzel buys a hat in Shyport, [[Merchant City|the Big City]]. It's right nice and smart, making Rapunzel look all citified and stylish and suchlike. The acquisition of Nice Hats is also the obsession of their friend Prudence, a pixie, who likely pointed Rapunzel to the city's finest haberdasher for the acquisition of her new chapeau.
* The Redeemer from the [[Necromunda]] Comic of the same name. His flaming crown also doubles as a weapon, allowing an extra degree of [[Kill It With Fire|Kill it with Fire]] when in a pinch.
* [[Enemy Ace]] Hans von Hammer has very distinctive flying headgear.
* [[Wolverine]] can usually be seen wearing a cowboy hat when out of costume.
* Several characters [[Jack Kirby]] designed for the [[The Mighty Thor|Thor mythos]] have gigantic, lavish Nice Hats, particularly Loki and Hela. Indeed, Kirby created a great many Nice Hats over his long career, as shown in the ongoing feature from Bully, the Little Stuffed Bull, [http://bullyscomics.blogspot.com/search/label/The%205000%20Hats%20of%20Jack%20Kirby The 5,000 Hats of Jack Kirby].
* Phrygian cap style hats are pretty much standard clothing for [[The Smurfs]]. They may vary in appearance depending on the occupation of the Smurf wearing it, but they are rarely seen without it. Since male Smurfs are bald, the hats can be used to smuggle things (like in the [[Animated Adaptation]]'s Greedy Smurf, who hides a dessert under his hat, or Clumsy, who hides an [[Explosive Breeder]]). In the [[The Smurfs (Filmfilm)|live-action movie]], the hats also serve as parachutes to slow the Smurfs' descent as they jump from the Winslows' apartment window in New York City to a nearby taxicab.
