I dunno... some of the outfits color outside the lines of what I think would be reasonably defineable as "cool". Or rather, I think the entity in question makes their outfit cool, and not vice-versa. (In other words, a cool enough superhero could probably run around in jeans and a sweatshirt and it would still be cool on them. But they don't do this. At least, not the ones I've seen.)
As for exceptions to the humor one, this was actually an "trick" on my part; I was hoping you could prove me wrong, thereby directing me to some genuinely funny superhero comic material.
ANYway, I'm waiting for examples. ';P
(And, no, "The Tick" and its related spinoffs don't count, as they are outright parodies of the subject matter, and don't always follow your rules list anyway. Not that I'm saying you were going to even name that.)
