Also loving seeing Jarvis and the Scarlet Witch with her most well-known classic costume! I miss seeing the characters in their classic costumes when it seems that every new relaunch or every new-arriving artist must redesign the costumes and sometimes even the hairstyle of the characters without a real logical/plotwise reason.

 

With a so-typical X-Men "villain" as a Sentinel attacking Avengers Mansion, Beast must be involved for sure and I hope Quicksilver also, although at the moment Quicksilver should have been in the Moon with his then wife Crystal.

So cool!

Love those camera angles!

and Scarlet Witch, what can I say, you own her. She was part of my next commission I had planned.

--------------------------------------------------

From where I stand, you've hit the nail on the head, Charles. This project resonates so much because the characters are the ones we remember. Not close reflections, not the versions they grew into over lo those many years, but the real deals, the versions we loved.

The pages JB has posted resonate so much because they re-introduce us to those characters we knew from decades gone. Much has changed, but here they are, the team you remember-- AS you remember them.

Yes, in the great scheme of things, the shoulder tailoring of the costume becomes small potatoes, but I would contend the reason this project has such a charge is because it promises to keep the characters absolutely on model.

Jack Kirby designed Cyclops' visor a certain way, and that counts for something.

Dave designed Nightcrawlers's uniform a certain way, and I think that counts for the same weight.
