They tend to do completely covered looks, so I'm expecting some variation of the silver 90's will come eventually, but some bare arms for characters like Shuri and Thor suggests something like the original Alan Davis might be explored. Her current Red look is a reasonable approach too. I would love to see some of the more sexy X-Men looks nodded to in a pool party scene(so you can get away with Ororo in a two piece bikini with the metal circle clasp, for example), but I'm not sure they'll be that fun and cheeky.
Let the flames destroy all but that which is pure and true!
I'm guessing that's Ororo's upward lightning bolt. From Giant Size Jean Grey and Emma Frost.

I checked out Marauders #8...they shouldn’t have gone with that amazing cover or solicitation description. That execution came up pretty damn flat. Part of me is glad that it wasn’t some massive fight, because it wouldn’t be a good look for either Storm or Emma. But I was expecting better than what we got based on the cover and the solicit.
I enjoyed the issue but my main criticism is that there has been too much that’s happened between them in recent stories (IvX, AvX, Leah’s one-shot, and the fact that Storm turned Emma down for the Red Queen position before she could even finish her sales pitch lol) for those 2 pages to do this situation justice. They needed a more indepth conversation to give this moment more impact. It was still a meaningful exchange, and maybe all their past baggsge just didn’t merit a mention under the circumstances, but I felt like it was still missing some ingredients. I liked that they shared an emotional moment and, while I’d never see them being as close as Storm/Jean or Storm/Betsy, I can see the respect they have for each other (more so from Emma than from Storm). LOVED ICEMAN! He was hardcore and this is the level of vindictive vengeance I want to see from the mutants on the fools who don’t know when to pump their breaks. Plus, I know we have limited space in team books, but dammit Logan got a global aurora. I think Losing Kitty would be an equal if not greater display.
My other criticism is the art on some pages seemed weak sauce.
Anyway, 6.5-7/10.
Be the change you wish to see in the world.
A gentle reminder not to post scans/images/pages/whatever from pirate sites please. Go buy the books.
this is typical of an ororo stan, but I feel a change in the air that its gonna affect like.. the calm before... the storm.
(i am not sorry)
