This. Absolutely love this look.
There was just so much unadulterated fun in this concept and its execution. Clay Mann really shined in the creation of some of these looks and Mike Carey gave us a far better fake alt reality than they could've ever hoped to accomplish with Age of X-man.
At the time, these designs created genuine uncertainty and interest in who these characters were. Sure, they seem obvious now, but back in the day, they were very intriguing!
Only Cannonball and Rogue were obvious enough, but identities of others were hotly debated on this here forum.
I loved them all
Especially Basilisk, Dazzler, Frenzy, Tempo, Northstar, Vertigo, Hellion, Legion, all in Moonstars Cadre......etc, etc
Everyone looked so damn fine.
Was House Of X #5 the first time we find out Frenzy ditched the XMen and the Age of X look?
We are MUTANT..Krakoa, FOREVER!!! “Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité”
REAPER/LEGACY is one of Rogue's betters looks.
I don't want Rachel to be a ghost, but perhaps she starts finding she is turning into some kind of hybrid Phoenix/mutant type being and when she uses her powers she turns into an energy form like Revenant. She could even call herself Starchilde if she wanted to.
It would be interesting too if she starts finding it harder and harder to go back to a human form, because the part of her that is half Phoenix is becoming dominant.

Really liked Frenzy, Gambit, and Rogue's new looks in AoX.
