Looks to me like Iron Hook is just a shipwrecked Redbeard...

That one on display is not captain Iron Hook, captain Iron Hook has 2 normal legs color black pants and his beard is BROWN not a red one, so the one on display is a wrong one that isn't a captain Iron Hook.

I'll have to go with Brickbeard, as his torso and head are more useful than the other two. His hook, however... I prefer dark grey, then light grey, but that pearl gold is a bit icky (same with the epaulettes).
However, as I prefer Ironhook to Redbeard, I'd like to see a modern guerilla captain (not just a castaway pirate), with a similar torso, just updated.
Yeah, I always thought that too, beard aside.
Regarding Ironhook, he came out in various guises; pegleg, blue epaulettes... he likes to dress up

Brickbeard is the best. Awesome torso, fairly nice face... I guess I never really got Classic Pirates, so I don't have any happy memoires to win me over!

I voted for Captain Roger/Redbeard. It was a very hard choice between him and Brickbeard. I don't like Iron Hook's torso, what kind of captain looks like that? No style at all! 
Redbeard and Brickbeard however have both great torsos and nice coloured epaulettes (right spelling?). I can't say I like the face on either of them, maybe Brickbeard is a little better. But finally it was the colour of the torso that was the main reason of my choice. I really like green
I only got Redbeard at the moment but hopefully I will get my S@H order tomorrow so I can have personal meeting with Captain Brickbeard. Maybe I will change my mind then

Poor old Ironhook, now he's still living in the shadow of two captains instead of one!
I think Brickbeard seems too much like an updated version of Roger/Beard, would be good if the LEGO Group could come up with something more unique for future Pirate sets.

He's just keeping a low profile, so he can take over the world when you least expect it
.I don't like BB's head and his golden hook, I hope he gets replaced by a better one, that could rival with Redbeard and Ironhook.

I voted for Captain Roger/Redbeard because he's just my favorite. It's the only pirate captain I got so far. That's because the new pirate sets aren't avaible here yet.

I would have to say captain RedBeard because he was the original pirate captain, he is my favorite pirate and he was my first pirate captain I had ever got.

I vote IronHook...
Not that he's so fantastic but the other 2 captains look the same IMO (Brickbeard = updated Redbeard).

I voted for good old Redbeard!
The new Brickbeard looks more like a Ballet-dancer and Ironhook has something from a beggar/ a since longtime schipwrecked pirate, which doesn't really plea into his advantage .

Oh snap!!! Apparently I already voted in this poll, but I don't remember how I voted :-/ I only had 1 Redbeard. He has since been lost in the sands of time. I have no idea where he disappeared to, or even how I got him, because I don't have any sets that have him. I should 4 Ironhooks, but a brief glance at my Minifig display shows only 3 torsos, 2 heads, and 1 original hat. I don't know what happened to the other parts. of him :-p I was young, I probably traded pieced with friends, or I just lost them.
I now have 6 or 7 Brickbeards, his torso looks so effing sharp. but I can't exactly have that many Captains missing eyes, hands, and legs, so I've done a little customization on him. That torso is so freakin useful. I love it. By swapping out the hook, pants, and putting a different head on him, he can be anything from a stern merchant captain, to a wealthy businessman.
