So Jack Kirby hands you the design for the original X-Men costumes and as /co/ has said, it's the worst design Kirby has done. How would you guys fix their costumes, but keep in mind that they are students at a school and should be a uniform and still have the yellow/black color scheme. Other than that, go nuts.
Replace that yellow tunic with a big X symbol that extends all the way around the back. Also, get rid of the masks.
Like this.

The students would later get more form-fitting versions before Jean just made them new costumes.

I was always a fan of their X-Factor costumes with the big white X's on them
>>94352943
>yellow/black
are you blind? that is blue

>and as /co/ has said, it's the worst design Kirby has done.
They were uniforms, not costumes you asshat.
>>94352943
early x-men are comfy

>I don't know how old comic coloration worked
>I think Venom is blue

Dude I said they were uniforms and besides, in terms of a superhero comic, they are costumes, but in the context of the X-Men premise, they are a uniform. You're just arguing semantics at this point.

There was actually a whole comic about this topic. One of the Wolverine FC comics I think where both Scott and Logan had very contrasting views on whether or not it was a uniform or costume.
good book.
>>94352943
Give them their own colors and/or make the yellow tunic portion into some X-shape.
OR
Leave it alone because I like those costumes.
>>94352943
They haven't used those costumes in decades, what's to fix?
>>94352943
These can't be Kirby's worst designs. They aren't the Inhumans.
>>94353148
It's ambiguous without confirmation, as blues and blacks would swap both ways.
>>94352943
>fix
It's no wonder things are in the state they're in today if you're representative of Marvel's audience.

To be honest, I like the original X-Men costumes but on every single original X-Men storytime thread, the majority say those outfits are the worst "mainstream" Marvel suits Kirby made. Plus I would think it'd be a little fun to take some costumes people don't like and try to see how they could be improved aesthetically.

Either do >>94353007 or give them all representive colors.
Cyclops could have Red, with the outer visor being changed to grey
Beast could have a richer blue
Archangel would get White, and his wings changed to the Apocalypse ones.
Iceman either needs Superman shorts or tight boxers, colored a nice orange
JEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN can have Yellow but change the blue outline to red.
This, also make angel into a techno organic Gay cyborg like Blue Beatle
Keep iceman straight
Its basically the teen Titans
These were pretty solid outside of Warren
>>94352943
Their lineup was so bad
>Angel who can only fly and do nothing else
>Beast who's just stronger than your average human with no cool abilities
>Iceman who can just throw snowballs
Only good people there are Jean and Scott
>>94354739
>Iceman who can just throw snowballs
Angel could scout, rescue people, and fight
Beast could climb up walls
Iceman could make weapons out of ice
>>94352943
By sending Hank off to be an Avenger (aka the reject squad), the faggot off to kill himself, and Warren off to be a rich guy somewhere else. Then I would kill Jean and send the pedo up to space. Now I would give Cyclops a new team and have a nonshit book
Original costumes are still sexy as fuck, screw anyone who hates it. Yellow tunics over black hoods will always be better than typical spandex shit
>>94354739
>Hurr durr characters should be defined solely by their abilities
>>94353148
If they were supposed to be black then the majority of that part of that costume would look black, not blue.
>>94354403
These ones look great, except on Iceman.
