    Yes, but there’s also a reason they keep getting modernized and especially in video games where they’re trying to appeal to broader audiences. The classic underpants-on-the-outside-of-the-pants look is just very dated. So they could update them in story, starting out with the old suits and updating them in the first few issues. Something like that. Again, just my preference.

    LOL. I know I initially said the X-Office would be just fine without Hickman, but I’m prepared to at least consider that I might have been wrong.

    It depends how you execute it in my opinion. That Fleisher Superman suit on Superman and Lois was on-fire.

    Although personally I'm also fine with modern costumes. Provided they look good.

    Kinda defeats the point of doing a 90s mini if it removes the 90s elements

    *clears throat* BanshEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! This is gon be good. At the least fun i think. If there is going to be "Au" i think it makes more sense for it to be like more cartoon AU, or reader friendly versions of the characters like i still think that avenger run with Cap, Storm, Thor was a really fun book as opposed to new takes on the same characters just for the sake of not changing things.

    The classics never really go out of style.

    They probably did not use "'97" because they could put out a comic based on the '97 animation series.

    I bet this upcoming comic is a parody of House of X with a dash of X-Men '92.

    The writer of this House of X in X-Men '92 style is Steve Foxe, he's the one who wrote 'Spider-Ham: Great Power, No Responsibility'.

    That'd make sense, because the more I think about it besides costumes there's...not a ton that would change by being in the 90s

    This just shows how much they didn't want to continue Hickman's vision. They're really in love with this concept, to the point they're literally redoing in with the 90s animation style.

    I mean look what they were doing before Hickman. Now the voted Hickman out after he brought the franchise back to relevance. This just tells me that they're going to milk the hell out of this concept.

    Yeah milking his concept on top of nostalgia.As soon as he left we got Wolverine headlining a main event as well

    Gillen is giving me hope but he's not really leading the X line

    On another note we should have gotten mini's/one-shots of all of Moira's previous lives akin to this.Would be fascinating alt. stories which also play a part in canon, best of both worlds

    If you don't like the 92 universe then don't buy it. I like some of the ideas the 92 universe ran with so I'm in and I'm actually looking forward to it.
