Amos McTetris Redux

All right so ages ago I drew Amos McTetris, the gritty film noir reporter who just happened to be the L-shaped block from Tetris (I'm pretty I was originally inspired by Seventh Sanctum's Character Changer).

Then I came across him again yesterday (thanks to *MyNameIsMad), and decided to redraw him for kicks (again thanks to *MyNameIsMad), and here he is, ready to kick ass and take pictures.

Question, though: is he better? Old Amos had a charm - a certain je ne sais quoi, if you want to be French about it - that I think may be missing here. Should I stick with the original design, or this one, or a weird-ass amalgam of both?

I MUST KNOW.
