How would we feel about this being the designs for the new animated series?

[Havok83]

You say that like it's a bad thing.

If Marvel is smart, they will try to capitalize on nostalgia and appeal to the 90's animated series audience. A *lot* of these 30-somethings are now parents of their own children that they'd likely want to watch a new cartoon based on the 90's one with.

Let's not forget Wolverine and the X-Men which tried to distance itself from TAS and suffered for it with only one season.

Wolverine andn the X-men did not get cancelled bc it wasnt like the TAS. It debuted just as Disney purchased Marvel and they cancelled most if not all the animated series that were in production in favor of making their own in house

Wolverine and the x-men was pretty awfull too

I honestly like Jean's redesign. It reminds of X-Men: Apocalypse's interpretation of the costume. The torso in particular is what looks similar to me.



This isn't the best image, and I think this is the actual concept art for it, but there isn't really a great shot of it unfortunately. This version is grey for some reason, but it was blue in the film.



Here's a better one.

Nyssane is right, again.

Disney needs to reset the assets purchased from Fox. Using primary color designs from a primary color era is smart.

Yet if it were successful (like TAS, a cultural phenomenon), they certainly would've kept it around.

We'd all save so much time if everyone just admits this.

No they wouldnt. Spectacular Spider-man was very popular, well recieved both with fans and critics and Disney still let it be cancelled bc they wanted to make their own cartoon instead. They did the same thing with the Avengers. Disney wanted creative control over all their properties when they purchased Marvel so they took back all that they legally could

TAS fans can only argue for TAS revivals if they only wear those banana ass costumes in public.

[houndsofluv]

Wolverine and the X-Men had many factors against it and the suits were definitely not one of them. X-Men Evolution was much more successful and looked much less like the 90's.

Evo is a fantastic example of how to approach developing a new adaptation of series or property. Drastic alteration to style/aesthetic where necessary or interesting without drastic alteration to characterization. Diehard fans can recognize bits of what they love while more casual or younger viewers recognize bits of what appeals to them.

I genuinely don't see the appeal of a TAS reboot, even if its presented under the guise of something new. both parties are just gonna end up disappointed lol. It just couldn't exist and thrive the way it did outside its window of existence

[CRaymond]

Hounds and Snoop are right. Gimme these kids in these banana suits.

Where are these art pieces from? Ororo's design is the same one used in the Disney + icon that was released a while ago. Same with Jean and Gambit...interesting.

Jean and Loga were from a pool marvel had at facebook I guess. The cyclops one is being used in the cover of an audiobook and the Storm and Gambit ones I found on twitter but dont know where they came from.

[davetvs]

This is not dated at all and this is not the 90s look with a different color

Yes it is? If we want to get specific it's her X-Men Red look with a different color but that look is a clear homage/update of the 90s costume.

[anyajenkins]

That’s what I thought too. But I guess some people don’t see it. Agree to disagree there I guess... *shrug*

Huh, and these designs do match the Disney icons.
