I think a good way for them to give us an updated classic look is to add mirrored/disco-plated pieces (like with the AoX & Xtreme costumes) & stick to the silver/white/gray/light blue colors. I know I've seen some of Lightengale's original designs where she has a white popped/unzipped collar, silver breastplate/corset & mirrored/disco-plated arms & boots that looks like a legitimate route to go for updating her classic appearance.
And if they are that concerned about there being too many long-haired blondes running around (even though there never seems to be a concern about all the long-haired brunettes & raven-haired heroines floating around) -- give her a freakin ponytail instead of ALWAYS going back to the funky short haircuts. It's so outplayed with her. I need more Kylie & less P!nk
A BIG YES to EVERYthing you suggest, Tetragene! The color palette of silver/white/gray/light (sky) blue & the mirrored/disco-plated pieces are a MUST, reign SUPREME, and should ALWAYS be used!! And yeah, I'm WAY over the cropped 'dos, too. Oh, and when it comes to Lightengale's original updates, agreed - absolute GREATness:
... and then here's the latest takes:
... also, speakin' of, where I'm goin' with all this (from Dani Moonstar's appreciation thread)...
I'll be back with some pics, to start lookin' at the various logos for her, that have been used before.

And despite everything else goin' on at the time, who can forget this still, MOST AWESOME moment:
LOGO time!!
My initial instinct was to go with the original, mirrored/disco-plated version, and I've seen the middle one used on some of her merch, like statues & stuff. But IDK now, kinda likin' the simplicity & more modern edge, of the last, updated redo too.
Marvel themselves tho, do seem like they are goin' back to the more distinctive & arguably appropriate prototype, if these pics are any indication:
But with the latter still yet to materialize, who knows? I do really like it tho, for its VERY representative uniqueness, AND historical value.
Well, that's what seemed to happen with Exiles. Apparently they were meant to get a one-shot. It was listed in a catalogue, but when it was publicly announced, it was replaced by Power Pack. Speculation at the time suggested maybe Cable: Newer Mutants, which involved Blink was to blame. But then a new Exiles ongoing was announced. So yeah, hopefully the one-shot got canned because there are other plans for Alison.
