What is Your Favorite Mario? *Image & Artwise*

[NowhereMan]

I kind of discussed this in "Best and Worst Looking Mario Game?" somewhat misunderstanding the premise DJ Coco was making (aesthetics of the games), because I was excited to talk about Mario.

So my question is, what is the best looking and worst looking Mario (not game). This could include sprites, graphics of the character, or the general design of the character itself.
