Northstar looks terrific, Aurora not so much (yet!).

And what's wrong with Ms Marvel's costume anyway? I also prefer the Cockrum version, but this one is just fine, and the statue is wow!

Mr Byrne -- maybe drop sculptor Jim Maddox an email about Northstar and Aurora's hair color -- make sure Bowen get's it right before these go to paint.

I wonder if that included comic counts as a reprint?

***

You should get royalties then, right?

 

=====================

but if it's a FREE comic -- how are royalties calcualted?

I think Northstar and Aurora look great! I also like the Ms. Marvel and have always liked that first costume.

I think that's a Power Man full-sized.

That's it. But did I design it? I have a dim memory of not liking how the M
worked, but I can't remember if I was looking at a previously existing image.

…Ms. Marvel…

••

Captain Marvel's "new" costume, seen in issue 17 of his original series, was
designed by Gil Kane. Like all Kane costumes, it followed the lines of the
body -- a male body. Removing the leggings and adding a bare belly
did not magically transform this design into one suitable for the female
form. The basic lines -- and I write here as one who has drawn it -- worked
constantly against the natural curves of a female body.

Cockrum's design, on the other hand, played to those curves.
