waffling

I decided my existing X-Men icons of Cyclops and Wolverine aren't really suitable for X-Men First Class, and that I needed an Erik Lehnsherr/Magneto icon. The only problem is that I'm not sure whether to icon Magneto!RatCreature with the helmet, which has the advantage of being recognizable, but otoh helmets don't work that well with the ears, and look always silly, or Erik!RatCreature, which is less easily recognized, but fits better with XMFC and whose look I prefer. So which do you like better for an icon?

I suppose in the normal course of events he holds it onto his head with his magnetic powers as reflex, and that's why there doesn't seem to be a chinstrap or anything like that. But surely moments of distraction could happen when he gets thrown across the room by some energy blast or something.
