All of these cosplay photos were posted by LeslieSalas over on deviantart. She’s cosplaying as Polaris, and the Scarlet Witch in the first photo is TanyaNoAtelier.
Be sure to pop on over to both their DA pages to fave the pics and maybe leave comments for them!
ok but Lorna’s that cool woman in her early to mid 30s that drinks wine in the morning on the Marvel version of The View, does fundraisers and similar events during the day, and parties at night.
(there are other ideas of Lorna that are just as valid and this may or may not be actual canon but hey it’s fun to imagine)
As expected, the Polaris one is is in her 90s X-Factor uniform.
Marvel didn’t really have any alternative options. Their entire theme here is Jim Lee trading cards as covers, and this was the only trading card Jim Lee drew of Lorna (that I know of). That constraint meant there was no way to provide a cover with Lorna in her iconic costume or a variation of it, which I vastly prefer.
This is good for representation and spread of Lorna. That said, I’m not sure if I’ll buy it or not. I would’ve done so a couple years ago as a sign of support. Now, it’s iffy. The idea of doing it has been tainted somewhat for me by Marvel during Secret Wars. I bought issues of comics even if she was just a small cameo under the same idea and Marvel proceeded to throw her into forced limbo for two years.
A relic from back when this blog was here to showcase an X-Men fan comic. This was meant to be the first cover page, but alas, it will never be finished now. It’s too old at this point, too much I would change and my inking style is completely different now. Only ever got to flat colors. Didn’t even give Wolverine all his body hair.
The first chapter was supposed to be about Kitty arriving to the Xavier School, and having just developed her powers and learned about mutants, she’s extremely alarmed by how… different a lot of them are. So the cover is an exaggerated version of her feelings on that. Lorna is a teenager in the comic too, so Kitty clings to her as someone she can relate to.
It’s a shame it never got finished, but I understand how that goes.
