It’s a great homage. The only thing I might have changed was going for the force field and battle imagery of his first draft he posted.
I bought X-Men #1 when I was young at the local 7/11. It came out thirty years ago this year. It still holds the world record for around 8 million copies sold with the Magneto cover still the most prized of all of them.
It’s been homaged once before for Lorna in a Marvel card game for Brotherhood team up with Emma Frost in a decade ago.
I'm still getting caught up on social media (been a busy day for me again), but there are a couple things that have come up on Tumblr.
1) Costume concerns. Some of them are what I've said - too similar to Brand, lack of headgear. But one not said here is the view that Lorna should be wearing pants. From a character standpoint, it was noted that she's never worn a skirt before (and IIRC this is true), and she's worn pants ever since her very first costume. I'm not counting civilian clothes here. From a practicality standpoint, it was noted that Lorna's going to be flying. Meaning that in-universe, she's gonna be giving a lot of upskirt views when she's in action.
2) Lorna and Jean getting to be on the same team again. A lot of people talking about how they were on the same team back in the 60s, and eagerness to see them interact as teammates again for the first time in so long. IMO this is one of the big benefits of Lorna being on this new team, recognition for her history with them in this manner. It's a golden opportunity for Marvel to build good modern dynamics with them - as long as Lorna is her own character as opposed to "Jean lite." Which, I'm hopeful will be the case given Lorna's joining the team via fan vote rather than Marvel simply deciding to add her to it.
I may have more things to add later. This is just what I've seen so far.

I like to associate certain songs that I hear with certain characters. It was the reason I made the one thread about what songs make people think of X-Men.
I've been sitting on this for a year, waiting for the right moment and occasion. I think Lorna joining the new X-Men team is it, and in a good way. It's Billie Eilish's "all the good girls go to hell."
Choice lyrics from the song:
All the good girls go to hell
'Cause even God herself has enemies
And once the water starts to rise
And heaven's out of sight
She'll want the devil on her teamP.S. - The "devil" and "Lucifer" lines in the song serve as callbacks to this in my head:Look at you needing me
You know I'm not your friend without some greenery
Walk in wearing fetters
Peter should know better
Your cover up is caving in
Man is such a fool
Why are we saving him?
Poisoning themselves now
Begging for our help, wow!

Also, it turns out Entertainment Weekly wrote an article about the new team, with a very good write-up and prominence for Lorna within it. It's noticed and appreciated that Havok wasn't namedropped in the article.

That Ben Bolling IVH inspired outfit is one of the best fan-art interpretations I've seen.
