I love Jean's long fiery hair but do you think short hair could work on adult Jean? (even if temporary?)
It was great on Teen Jean

No. She's not Rachel. Her long hair is part of her iconic look. Anything short should be reserved for AR versions
If they want to use the skirt, I really wish they would at least update it. I'm not oppose to this.
First X-Lady
I prefer her with long hair.
Thinking about it, how many heroines with a skirt are out there in the Marvel universe??
I know much of them had bikinis like Storm or Wanda but now they have pants but skirts?

So many Jean fans were asking for the return of the skirt mini, for years. It's so nice that Marvel finally listened. * Cough *
This cut is too youthful. Jean looks better with long hair

Just found my entire 2 year X-bible plans from when I was going to take over the X books. Haven't opened it since I quit in 2014. Was very Fantomex, Jean, and Professor X-orn centric. Big bad was Mastermind. Just couldn't make myself do the mandated Inhumans story. c'est la vie

I keep thinking there is a mystery to her wearing an old costume whereas everyone else got an upgrade. Buttttt I dunno if I am just setting myself up for disaapointment.
I LOVED the short hair on Ultimate and AoA Jean. I wouldn't mind seeing 616 Jean with a new short, sleek 'do.
My Summer rain. My rooftop in Japan. My quiet in the storm. *cries* Al Ewing is GOD...Praise His name! Uplift Him in song! Glorify His works!
I hate Jean with short hair and it's something that never lasts. Both Ultimate and AoA Jean ended up with longer hair before long.

The character has in the past. Jean in the Revolution era fought with her fists at times. Jean in Morrison's run once punched and kicked at a member of the Imperial Guard during the "Imperial" Storyline. There were moments in X-factor where she levitates and kicks an opponent (see: Xfactor during the Xtinction Agenda storyline). But you would be correct that she often doesn't fight physically.
Now most of us do not hate the Marvel Girl look. I think a lot of us like it as an early "classic" costume for the character. It just doesn't fit in 2020. It is not practical and looks a bit absurd. But again what I do like is that Jean looks a bit strange especially with the mask. It does make her stand out (unfortunately not exactly in a good way).
If you could change the mask, what would you replace it with? Or just leave it off altogether?
