well Chuck is really lousy at spilling the beans on secrets, but OTHER people have been quite good about providing spoilers :evil:

from Steve Uy, the cover artist for Uncanny.

or did I just say too much?

ARMOR??? :ooh: if there's armor there's just one thing to ask; what goes better with armor than swords? need to see some swords!! :D

thank goodness, the 410 costumes arent sticking around! *whew*

personally i'm just thrilled it's not the costumes from the cover of Uncanny 410 :ick: those were jsut ugly! anything will be better than those... we really do not need the X-Men wearing kitchen gloves!

if armor means swords... :D we get our swashbuckler back!

but from what i have heard of what may be thier 'casual wear' costumes, atleast Archangels, i am not relly sure what to make of them... and i am wondering what Ron Garney's fascination with gloves is. but alteast Bobby gets his trench and shades back. :icey:

I just hope it's not a return to the style they had when Claremont came back. Remember Yu redesigned their costumes with armor, and it left something to be desired -- at least for me.

I'd be thrilled to see Nighty get his swords back! I just don't want to see him turn into AoA Nighty! Yike!

nighty has *always* used rapiers, and sabers/cutlass', so he'll get one of those, in true swashbuckler fashion. probably a trio of sabers if he gets swords, since those are more 'deadly' looking than rapiers sicne they have a definate edge to them.

like so: http://www.medieval-weaponry.com/en-us/dept_294.html

i am thinking something along the lines of the top cutlass.. it's his colours and everything :)

of course there is always the distinct possibility they could go for rapiers, since it is m ore 'romantic' and swashbuckler. but i don't think Garney is the kinda guy to go for a complex hilt design which is most of the artistic appeal of a rapier.

I've always thought that NC's original costume was the best, mostly because it was, well, the original.:bamf:

well, of course.. the original will ALWAYS be the best, but i don't think we will be seeing it's return anytime soon, as Marvel is against the whole spandex look... :(

I think the thing that would force a saber into NC's hand (though I think rapiers are a better fit) is that rapiers are thin, looong, straight blades...and that makes it hard to get the perspective right when drawing them. (at least in my experience)

The sword my Nighty action figure has is more like a Saber.

*ahem* - we have confirmation:
Chuck Austen sez....
Well, they release the new costumes next week at San Diego, so maybe you didn't say too much. I've been hinting that the black leather is going away, so we cool.
hopefully the costumes will also be available to be seen in Toronto so i can see them. ;)

Upcoming Uncanny Changes???

Post by BAMFCentral »

The upcoming Uncanny manga artist Asamiya's design for the x-men was shown in the latest Wizard. I will try and put up some images later today, if not sooner.

It showcased the new 'Battle Armor' look for the X-Men. Kurt's look is very close to what his design is now. But he is hunched over a bit so you can't tell if he does/doesn't have the dog collar. Bobby and Wolvie also look the same. Angel looks really different. And North Star's uniform is really not what I expected. The other 2 surprise additions to the team where also shown. If someone else wants to spill I will let them, but I am going to wait until I can get the scan done.

Okay spoilers in the pics, so don't look unless you want to ruin the upcoming surprises.

One thing, I don't mind people spreading this image around and all. But if you are going to link directly to my image make sure it is simply a link and not an embbeded image please.


Thanks.

yes, i think i like it, but at the same time don't... i like Husks costume, but her eyes creep me out. Nighty just generally creeps me out :( and i do not like Arhangel.... how in the hell did he grow his hair out so fast? i know it's a comic book, but i think about these things. i feel Northstar looks more like Multiple Man than anyone...

but overall the style is cool. they are well drawn... i just don't care for his takes on some of the characters.... i wonder why Nightcrawlers costume was barely changed....Icemans being the same i can understand, the second it was changed people went nuts, Churchill's design for him was perfect. but i was looking forward to a new take on Nighty. i liked the Churchill design, but....i was ready for something new besides making his top a sleeveless pullover over another top. poor boy, he must be sweltering under there!

Wow, thanks for scanning, BC! But....

Blah. I hate manga.:huh::yech: Heads are too small, and very ugly faces on all of them.
And what's up with Kurt? Looks like he kept most of his old suit, exept for high water pants? And shame about Notherstar. His old suit was one of the best ever, and this just looks convulted. Fortunately Iceman and Wolvie kept their old duds, mostly.
If this becomes reality I might actually drop the book.

...Oh,. and Husk. Man, she looks like "The Pro" with her run out make-up and miniskirt. Exept the Pro is hilarious, and I have my doubts about this. :mad: And also, I think the "Dog Collar" is still firmly on...

grr. Now, this really spoils my mood!
