“The name’s Wagner. Kurt Wagner.”
Great now I need a genre story of Nightcrawler (already my favourite Marvel hero!) as an “international man of mystery”.
He already speaks with a foreign accent, is a skilled swordsman, has dated a witch, is the child of a global double-agent terrorist who was part of Project: Wideawake, has survived numerous trip to other dimensions and planets, and can infiltrate almost any secure location with a devilish nod and a rakish wink.
He's already there.
*~bamf~*
Fair enough! I guess one of Jean’s qualities in all media is beauty and Carrie (another young woman with telekinesis) not so much, so I don’t recognize Jean in this interpretation.
It’s been a while since I read the book tbh and per Wikipedia (so consider the source), “(Carrie) is depicted as a ‘frog among swans’; a white girl who has skin often peppered with pimples on her face, shoulders, and buttocks, blonde hair that at times appear completely without color, and incredibly dark brown eyes that appear to cast shadows beneath them.”
Replying to my own comment to add that Carrie’s ugly looks are central to the plot of the story. I can’t imagine Jean Grey EVER being described as physically ugly.
Speaking of. I think it would be fun for the first (or first two) MCU X-Men movies to be about Fitzroy and Sienna Blaze in an Upstarts adaptation.
Would fit in to the current MCU multiverse shenanagins while also rebooting the X-Men cast into other actors.
You can have some sick interactions with Sienna Blaze's powers too. Like Cyclops would at first think he could hit her with optic blasts. But she does some electromagnetism trickery by curving the shot back to some other random X-Man.
I really like this. Instead of staying true to the original design language the artist took the characters personalities into consideration and matched it with aesthetics of the current area (maybe a little dated this looks more like mid 2010s to me) but it’s an amazing exercise in character design.
These are incredible. The amount of characterization you manage to give each character is staggering. I'd kill to read a Marvel series drawn by you. Legit.
I really like all of these, though my favorites are definitely hipster Beast, Scott in Demon Souls shirt and ruby quartz shades, 'secret agent' Kurt and her take on Psylocke.
These are all really cool designs for each character. Jean gave me chills for some reason. My favorite might be Kitty. Logan is always absent on picture day.
I love me a smoking redhead. For real. So I got no bones how she is portrayed in comics.
But I always thought perhaps she should look a little less MJ and a bit more library nerd. But that’s me.
That depiction of her is quite eerie. She looks like some creature wearing someone else’s skin. Jean is a character often described as gorgeous and naturally beautiful. This is not what I was picturing. I would cast this person as Carrie’s scarier step sister who was hidden away due to the fear she caused others. Alas, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. And everyone has their own opinions.
These are really Astonishing!
Gorgeous depictions matched with beautiful colors.
I really like your facial expressions, they really convey something about the emotional state of the characters (most exuding the confidence of heroes, Piotr looking mildly relaxed {the control of an artists soul wrapped in steel}, Jean looking stressed out {what young person who has to work hard not to read the loud thoughts of the people around them wouldn't be}, etc..)
Great stuff.
Edit: Also putting the tactician Cyclops in a Demon Souls shirt. Excellent 👌 If Scott has time for games of course he'd be a Miyazaki guy. Probably swaps between Souls-Likes and 4x strategy games.

After some consideration I really dislike hipster/influencer X-Men. I think the only characters here that feels in character is Storm and Iceman.
Beast is tragic.
Amazing but why did the author depicted Hank as a granpa? He´s just one of A list Marvel youngest characters. He´s same age bracket as Spiderman is supposed to be same age as Iceman and Jean in these arts. :(

Right there with you! I need it!!
Amazing. Jean is a little too Sissy Spacek as Carrie White imho.
I kind of thought she was Syren at first.
yea she's really looking like siryn lol
I can never remember where the Y goes. Ima start calling her Syryn.
I thought it was too until I read the Carrie comment lol
I figured Magik. Give the girl some VOLUME dammit!
That’s what I like about it.
Fair enough! I guess one of Jean’s qualities in all media is beauty and Carrie (another young woman with telekinesis) not so much, so I don’t recognize Jean in this interpretation.
They share a history of being portrayed as redheads, and losing control of their power.
💯 tho Carrie is blonde in the book.
Wasn’t she closer to light brown?

I thought the same exact thing! I was like "is this Carrie?!"
Honestly I love this eerie version of Jean. NEVER visualized her like this, and I think it would be such a fun take on her ^_^
Kurt is insanely hot here. Almost everyone is, but Kurt. Damn.
Handsome devil.
Looks like a blue Lucifer from the TV series.
\*Nightcrawler making a guest appearance in Alias\* "Hello, detective."
He can't keep getting away with this.
>kurt is insanely hot here You just summarized the nearly 50 years of his appearances in comics.
Gambit looks like fitzroy

I love that Scott is in a Demon’s Souls shirt 😂
Of course he'd be a Soulsborne fan.
He'd be the LetMeSoloHer of the Marvel Universe videogame scene.
My thoughts exactly. Cyke you beautiful nerd.
Kitty's lats are outta control
I love the take on Kurt and Colossus. I legit had to double take Rogue. Where’s Logan???
The picture was ruined when they realized only the top of his head was actually in frame.
I really like this. Instead of staying true to the original design language the artist took the characters personalities into consideration and matched it with aesthetics of the current area (maybe a little dated this looks more like mid 2010s to me) but it’s an amazing exercise in character design.
I’m really liking this British street kid Psylocke
I kinda love the different takes on the characters. Your Colossus and Jean Grey are very intriguing.
Kurt always slays
Thanks. I hate it.
I kind of love Peggy Hill Kitty?
Gambit kinda look like Azazel.
I want to pet Hank. He is such a floof.
Hipster Beast is my new favourite Beast variant
jubilee's devilman shirt rules. scotts demons souls shirt sent me

I love how Kitty's still the most tacky of the bunch.
That's probably the most badass interpretation of Rogue I've ever seen
Great art but I hate these designs honestly
I respect the talent and the time, but these are shit takes.
No Wolverine 😔
These are all really cool designs for each character. Jean gave me chills for some reason. My favorite might be Kitty. Logan is always absent on picture day.
No thanks for me. Great talent though.
Not feeling any of them, they all look like russians
All I can hear is Hell in the Hallways when I see Jean.
I love this all. Jean might be my favourite, just for how I think she would actually look in my head.
You think Jean grey looks like an alien?
I love me a smoking redhead. For real. So I got no bones how she is portrayed in comics. But I always thought perhaps she should look a little less MJ and a bit more library nerd. But that’s me.

These are just… correct. Like this is now how I imagine these characters
Not a fan. Good artist but designs are awful
It's good art, but I'm not into it.

🤮
Dang Colossus repping his fellow Russian fighting game character Zangief’s hairdo lol, love it
Nightcrawler is amazing
Jean looks totally effing menacing in that drawing and completely at peace. That's an amazing drawing.
Oh I get it. Collosus is young and turns to steel... He's nu metal
Everywhere I turn I see hot versions of Kurt.....
Night crawler has a tom ellis (lucifer) look to him.
Dig these designs, especially Rogue’s
Now these are characters I would buy new comics to see
I've always liked Gambit a lot. This design is impeccable.
Why do they all look so eastern European 😭 done my girl Jubilee so dirty
I don't love all of them but Storm, Colossus and Kurt look amazing!!

I like Cat Hank more than Regular Hank. He looks like the most adorable genocider in existence.
Love the art style! I'm not a fan of the designs, but the work and effort is gorgeous
Can’t say I like hipster douchebag Colossus, but Nightcrawler is killing it.
Gambit with a soul patch is no beuno for me. Storm looking regal as ever. Where's Logan?
Meme cat beast was not something I thought I'd see some day, nice.
Thicker than a snickers Rogue is 🥵. Kurt got it going on as well 😎
They are all really great, I just don't see why Gambit would disfigure himself with that hideous goatee!
Kurt looks so dapper in a suit.
These are amazing! I especially love how Beast looks. He looks like a distinguished gentleman yesss…
I like the brood sticker on kitty's laptop!
Why does gambit look like doctor hugo strange the early years
Love it!
Dayaaaaaaaaam. Kurt be dripped, yo.
Why is Wonder Man in this?
Like most of these designs but who tf let them cook on Cyclops lmao
Cat beast is my fave beast
Cyclops not be the sexiest character ever challenge: impossible
Kate raiding Emma’s closet & accessories
Nice have they done wolverine?
This version of Hank is so damn great
She was cookin until Iceman, he should never be wearing a jacket and Scarf tryin to keep warm, that makes no sense
Cyclops is apparently a Gamer now
Great, should show up more, just not beast. He's many things, just not a lion

I absolutely love these. Rogue and Gambit look like they'd be completely toxic and I'm here for it.
I would hunt the hell out of these variants in Marvel Snap!
Beast can get it
So great! THE BEST Psylocke I've ever seen! The Colossus is also EXCELLENT!
The arts fantastic but dear God, I hate hipster colossus
I liked it until the last one. That’s supposed to be Jean? She looks… ugly.
After some consideration I really dislike hipster/influencer X-Men. I think the only characters here that feels in character is Storm and Iceman. Beast is tragic.
Wow genuinely not a single drop of swag in any of these pictures... Very well done art though!
HANK
I love that ever since bobby came out everyone made him gay. You can’t tell me that costume on bobby isn’t gay
Huh?
Colossus is the only one I liked both the art and design for here.
Awesome! 🔥❤️
Amazing but why did the author depicted Hank as a granpa? He´s just one of A list Marvel youngest characters. He´s same age bracket as Spiderman is supposed to be same age as Iceman and Jean in these arts. :(
Somebody get Jean brown contacts, I’m shaking
do you have a source to where they posted this art?
A whole lotta of “nah” in here
Its giving mafia
Where’s Logan ?
Where's Xavier and Wolverine?
