Cool cover and such a throwback, lol!

The Gifted factoid flashback.

Fox execs axed Singers original plan for Lorna’s captivity some of which was filmed. Singer imagined a future prison system for mutants were they are processed like meat in plastic containers, forced to work, and eliminated. Emma had a piece of glass stuck in her eye in this cut scene and Singer shut down filming until it was out.

it took me forever to find Lorna

I know. Lorna is almost invisible there.

This was a bit before they had her fly, which is why Lorna, like Jean, is seen running.

Polaris has had a lot of costumes! Some good and some not so good but all different from each other for the most part. It made me wonder, what kind of silhouette and style do you prefer for Lorna? Sleeveless? Cape or no cape? Jacket?

Personally, I like her current silhouette with the jacket and boots. I’d add her headgear, some gloves and make the skirt shorts to give a more athleisure vibe that fits Lorna. She’d also take the jacket off. What do you all think?

Basically her iconic outfit but modernized to better fit her personality, powers, and modern standards. Keep the headgear and cape. Keep green as primary color, but add a secondary color that works with it (I've noted even characters specifically named for colors like Scarlet Witch and White Queen have secondary colors through their hair, eyes, and/or lipstick). Something that's a cross between warrior and royal is best. A generally metallic look would be good as a reference to her powers.

It's another one of those cases where Marvel quietly uses "history" as an excuse to visually present her with Havok for the billionth time, while simultaneously not acknowledging any history that actually matters like the Genoshan genocide or launching Krakoa into space. It gets some small points for recognizing Lorna was there at all, but not much (and certainly not enough to warrant buying the cover).

This is also the second time a cover or teaser of some kind was put out that had Lorna on it, but she was posed near Havok and surrounded by green to make it difficult to spot her. The time before this was teaser art for Inferno. One more time and it's definitely a deliberate pattern.
