    Dani's costumes are okay, but they tend towards boring colour schemes, and showing too much skin. (Don't get me wrong, Dani's not body conscious at all, but I don't think she'd wear a costume the basically says "aim for my guts" into combat.)

    I will say, when it comes to these two costumes:



    Dani definitely wrote it better, even with the primary colours.




    I've really got to reread that run. I was too young to really appreciate it the first time around. The O5 just seemed so old!
    Dani definitely wears the loincloth outfit better than Warren does. You are right about the colors though. Dani does seem to get stuck wearing the same colored costumes a lot.

    As for Angel, this another one of feather winged Angel's bad uniforms. The feather winged version of Warren could give even Shadowcat a run for her money in terms of poorly designed uniforms

    As to Warren the metal wings could be like a power up that he could only hold for a short time, or that using them would drain him, or just stick him in the metal wings---drawn well, and leave it at that...
    Seriously about your foot and your dad's fingers dude? I feel bad for you.

    I still say metal wings over feather wings.

    Soft wings would be trouble enough a lot of the time. Flying's cool, but there are times the wings must be really awkward. Like driving a car.
    The metal wings can fold up completely into his back. No need to worry about them getting in the way. I like the idea of him keeping them at all times.

    The feathered wings are what cause Angel to be dismissed as just another guy who can fly. There are other X-Men who can fly, and they come with other cool abilities.

    The metal wings are the ones that help Warren stand out. They provide him with a better back story also.
