    Ultimately, It really doesn't matter what she's wearing or specifically, it doesn't matter if we like what she's wearing or not...once she's written well and illustrated beauty-fully...which her fan-base also seem to have a major issue with...not me though, I'm happy with the Jean I've been reading since HoX, So I'm excited for this new chapter in her life.
    I think it's valid to argument the same thing over and over again... But I don't like Hickman's writing (and are opnions), I like Taylor and Bendis. Duggan is something I'll only know by reading

    For example Namor is a swimmer, swimmers usually use lycra pants or just speedos. Namor costume fits with what he is.



    It nets some blue On the knees or on the boots

    It really is a updated version of Lee costume
    Namor fights on land more often than not.
    Why won't it be beliveable. It's not like all the others are wearing armor.
    Expect she used it for so long in the past.And it worked.
    People fight crime in tights and heels.Her skillset requires no physical movement for the most part.
    Of course armor would be safer.Then why don't the others wear it.Polaris aren't going to be any less hurt by a hit because she is wearing a bodysuit.

    The Supergirl show had Supergirl wearing a skirt for four years and she was a similar age as Jean. It looked fine. It was fine. No one complained then about it looking strange or being strange that she was wearing a skirt and it was only changed because it gets cold in Vancouver and Melissa Benoist wanted a warmer on-set costume.

    The dress being a dress isn't the problem if the costume has one. It's the fact that in comparison to other costumes it lacks detailing or anything to make it visually interesting - which is why it thrives in other media, because they've added that.

    Namor still is the king of seas, he won't change clothes from nowhere to fight on Land.

    Because people don't fight crimes on dresses. Do you see police on dresses? no. even superheroes arent using dresses or are adapt it like Scarlet Witch.
    Costumes have to be evolved, unless they are timeless like Superman or even Batman.

    I'm not saying for everyone use armors. It's not a good fit for every superhero

    Supergirl TV show was so bad, I owuldn't use it as example. She changed to pants because the actress was complaining because it was too cold on Vancouver. It was mostly there to cheesecake and knowing about producers I would never put it as a win

    Well then by your logic Namot should wear more clothes while on land.He can always take them of to go to sea.Also aquaman's costume exist and all the atlantians in the 616 are not wearing underwear.They fight and live in water for their entire lives.

    Except she did.And it works.
    Police also don't wear skintight suits or underwear.They also don't have super-powers.
    The Jean costume is pretty iconic.Not timeless but it's not just another costume.

    It doesn't make sense for her to use armor.If you say is she loses her powers that goes for most characters.Most of them should wear armor but don't.

    I don't know how to draw knee pads or boots (yet). I made this one with the Lee gold/yellow/orange.

    No. When im on the beach I use less clothes. It's not like he will switch clothes to be on land and then switch again to be on the sea. That is impractical since there is rivers and lakes on land. It has nothing to o with my argument

    It works where? Jean looks like a housewife just decided to hang out with X-men. Nothing against housewife, but Jean isnt one.

    Police use tight costumes, I even remember some people mocking police officers doing a bad job "maybe lacked oxygen on brains because they use tight pants"
    The costume isn't iconic, it is one of the least known ones. Jean iconic costumes are Lee's 90s and Phoenix.

    The mask and gloves were also improved there. As of now Jean's costume looks like an awful mashup of a random dress, some dishwashing gloves, rain boots and a halloween mask.

    Right. I don't agree that it looks like a halloween mask per se, but I understand where you're coming from; they're all my biggest criticisms too. I don't like the lack of detailing on the dress, and I don't like that the gloves and the boots are drawn incorrectly - because they aren't supposed to be "floppy," and that bothers me more with the boots than the gloves. But the base design isn't bad. It's good, even. Very retro chic.

    My answer to the x-men Monday interview

    Ommadon: “By summoning all the dark powers I will infest the spirit of man So that he uses his science and logic to destroy himself. Greed and avarice shall prevail, and those who do not hear my words shall pay the price. I'll teach man to use his machines, I'll show him what distorted science can give birth to. I'll teach him to fly like a fairy, and I'll give him the ultimate answer to all his science can ask. And the world will be free for my magic again.”

    Oh that is fantastic Daedra!!!

    Were you tracing Carmen Carnero there? No judgment if so. It's gorgeous.

    10 days ago we were admiring said costume:



    It occurred to me that what may be really bothering some of us is her characterisation and we're just taking out on the costume.

    No problem I used this panel as template, then I animated it

    Yeah... I mean, we all knew the motivation was probably something silly like that, but having the confirmation of the stupidity and poor consideration about how the character should actually feel... *sigh*... let's just say you captured it perfectly.

    Thanks for sharing.
