Yay! I always said Jean was Omega-Omega!

This is how we win what, exactly? Not everyone is obsessed with power level pissing contests.

This is how we win back what has always been a part of her canonical history.

She always has been!

I find it interesting that you make that distinction. I think I know what you mean.

I'm not sure I know what I mean! :P

I'd have to watch the movies again (and trust me: I won't) but, for what I remember, Jean seems more of an introvert in the movies.

Yes, I think Jean is more introvert in the movies, thus the "I", but more of an extrovert in the comics, an "E".

That little tweak between an "I" and an "E" changes more than simply being an extrovert or an introvert, but yes! :)

I'm glad you agree. 'Cause I was really going by my memory which is... notoriously bonkers! :D

Thanks!

Whoever gives me reason not to be tempted to watch those movies again just to check if my faulty memory isn't playing tricks on me deserves this:

Ahahaha, that is cute!

Thanks. I think it's missing some more evident X element. But when I tried colouring the one on her chest, I thought it took from one of the design's strengths which, in my opinion, it's how clean it is. I tried extending a bit the belt to form an X on her belly, but I didn't really like it because it didn't seem to match the rest of the lines so I didn't even bother trying to render the metal there.



EDITED: Also, about RD's design, I think it makes sense for the Gala's outift since you'd need a more structured element to hold the weight (and drag) of the train. Once that was gone, it started to annoy me. The same for waist line on the front part of the body.

But like I said, it was just my mind being crazy and trying to figure out what was bothering me. It's nothing major. I do like the new costume as it is.

I actually really like the xbelt too! Either belt really adds that necessary spark.

I like the belt but not for this costume. For me it looked a bit... I don't know. Flappy? It doesn't match well the more rigid elements of the costume: the triangle in the headband, the shoulder blades, the metallic part of the gloves... I tried and I was like "nah". I tried thin golden piping along the X on the chest, but it didn't contrast enough against the green there. Then I thought of hanging (from the belt) a little x on a chain or even a cut-out on her right hip... but I think it would cheapen the costume. And that's when I told myself to stop this madness already. :D

Anyway, I'm glad you liked it. :)

Speaking of the Scarlet Witch, she recently ate Chthon, the elder god who granted her his magic when she was a baby so he could use her to reenter earth. Meaning Wanda owned her demons, quite literally.

We know the Krakoan Resurrection makes mutants more powerful. Jean soloed Nightmare. Could she eat the Phoenix?

Well Jeen forced it to resurrect her and she used her pink powers to draw energy from a whole planet, Terrax, and Galactus, so definitely she could. It might be nice to see this one day.
