Seeing as many list them here: The three; The Dragon the Tiger and the Destroyer, should really have their own book again...

In recognition of his new backup in "Inferior Five" - Peacemaker!

Absolutely!
although they really did blow the chance to somewhat redesign (and tone down the toilet-seat element) of the helmet, with this re-intro.
And I do love Jeff Lemire's style and aesthetic here.
Just would have been the perfect opportunity to slightly rethink it. I mean this is the original guy that should visually be making the Dredds the Fetts and new derivative Mando run for cover.
Yet as is, he will still be a hard sell.

They've tried redesigning the helmet over the years, and it always ends up making him look like a generic armored guy/security guard. I thought the helmet was stupid at first too, but I've come around to loving it because it's so distinctive and ugly! (though I do prefer the 90's tweak of making the mouth opening and eyeslits hard angles - the way Lemire drew him above) And the whole look - jet pack, short sleeves and old-school gloves! I've seen too many "practical" segmented armor stuff these days that none of them have an impact visually and they're too busy-looking. Nope - I'm all in for the toilet helmet!

So am I, love the character as is, however it's somewhat a visual impasse to some.
As indicated, they've redesigned the mouth opening and eye slots, so tweaking it isn't a problem, or betrayal of the character or anything.
They don't have to abandon it, honestly just tone it down so it's not a full looking toilet seat over the top, they could easily just make the same design a thin ridge over the top.
