Jean Grey - UPDATED!

This is an update of Jean Grey's classic costume.

Professor X

Professor X, or  Charles Xavier is the leader of the X-Men. The "world's most powerful telepath", he was originally wheelchair bound, then could walk, then was in a wheelchair again, then could walk AGAIN. Like most longstanding comic book characters he's been pretty much ruined and maligned by modern writer's, with the exception of a character saving stretch of X-Men Legacy comics by Mike Carey.

Winter Seasonal Styles - 'Tis The Season!

Have you been missing that one piece from your favourite style?! You have until the 31st of December 2016 to play the Winter Seasonal Event and complete these styles!

Carol Danvers (Captain Marvel)

Uses the Arctic Gear hand style from the Winter Seasonal Event!

Domino - X-Force Black

Uses the Arctic Gear feet style from the Winter Seasonal Event!

Rogue (Uncanny Avengers)

Uses the North Pole chest style from the Winter Seasonal Event!

Polaris - Uncanny X-Men

Polaris is Magneto's only daughter. Take that not-even-a-mutant-anymore Scarlet Witch! She inherited her father's power of magnetism, and more than a little bit of crazy. Either the most capable member of a team or a borderline lunatic, depending on the writer, she's also had a lot of really wacky costumes. Like this somehow amazing purple mash-up she wore when rejoining the X-Men.

Colleen Wing

Colleen Wing is a trained samurai and martial artist. Able to pull off being a natural redhead, despite being half-Japanese, AND a skintight white catsuit with sneakers. With Misty Knight she is one half of the 'Daughters of the Dragon'.

Misty Knight

Misty Knight is a bad-ass former cop turned private investigator,  bounty-hunter and sometime superhero. Injured on the job, her right arm was replaced with a bionic one invented by Iron Man. Known for consistently rocking a pretty sweet afro and being one half of the 'Daughters of the Dragon' with Colleen Wing.

Invisible Woman

The Invisible Woman (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invisible_Woman), or Sue Storm, is an original member of the Fantastic Four. The prototype rocket ship crash and space radiation that gave all the Fantastic Four their powers (rather than say, death or a bunch of cancer), endowed her with the ability to turn herself and other objects invisible and generate similarly invisible force fields.

Captain Marvel (Carol Danvers)

Captain Marvel (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carol_Danvers) is an Avenger and all around tough lady. She retired her awesome 60's bathing suit costume in favour of this military-esque getup, at the same time upgrading her codename from Ms. to Captain. She also got a pretty great haircut while she was at it, so it was a busy week for her.

Getting The Look

This is based on the original version of Carol Danver's Captain Marvel costume, rather than the current version that features slightly different details, a more muscular physique and a much shorter haircut.

Marrow

Marrow is a child of the 90's bad girl era of comics (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marrow_(comics)). She was rewarded with a place on the X-Men after killing a bunch of humans (that's not even a joke). A mutant, she has 'uncontrollable bone growth' powers that let her pull bone knives and other fun things out of her body to stab you with. She's currently enjoying a resurgence as a member of the new X-Force.

Getting The Look

One of my favourite things about DCUO is that you can create characters like Marrow that you're probably not going to see in an official Marvel game.

Marrow has had quite a few different looks for a character that hasn't appeared in a huge amount of comics. This version is based on how she looked just after she joined the X-Men (and was prettied up from her original appearances).

Emma Frost

Emma Frost is a telepath who can turn to diamond (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emma_Frost). She likes boob tubes, Scott Summers and Jean Grey being dead. She was one of the main cast of Joss Whedon's Astonishing X-Men.

Getting The Look
Emma Frost''s Astonishing look is very easy to put together. The closest thing to the chest piece is the Divine style, which is the reward from the Gotham University collection (http://dcuo.mmorpg-life.com/1041/collection/gotham-university/). This can be found in the immediate area around Gotham University or purchased pretty reasonably on the broker. The gloves, cape, boots and pants are all available at character creation.

Emma Frost - Marvel Now

Emma Frost (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emma_Frost) got bitch slapped by the Phoenix, picked another slutty outfit - but spoiler alert, it's black this time! - and lost most of her telepathy. She's currently running around with Cyclop's X-Men in the latest volume of Uncanny X-Men.

Getting The Look
Making Emma's Marvel Now look hinges on having the Necromancer chest style with the gaping open front. Combine it with the Classic cape as a substitute for her jacket. Necromancer chest is easy to obtain and drops in low level content or is purchaseable from the marketplace. The cape, boots, hot pants and belt are all available at character creation. Also available at character creation is the Crystalline skin style which works great for Emma's diamond form.

Jean Grey - Phoenix

If you don't know who Jean Grey is hit up her Wikipedia page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_Grey). She's a mutant and X-Man who got possessed by a big, fiery cosmic bird thing (for a while) that has way better taste in clothes than she does.

Getting The Look
Jean's classic Phoenix outfit is pretty easy to make. All except one of the styles are available at character creation. Her sash-like belt (Tech Ninja) is the only item you'll need to track down, and even then it's as easy as spending a bit of cash at the auction house. Way better than a rare drop you'll need to grind in the hope of getting.
