My first ever "crush, attraction, puppy love or whatever you wanna call it" happened immediately upon my first glace at "Punk Rock Storm". My little mind was just blown away lol. I also totally dug the transformation of Angel to Archangel! When I first saw it as a kid I thought it was just the coolest thing ever.

Quicksilver's Age of Apocalypse design is my favorite look of his. I normally don't care for the quasi-military look that's so prevalent in costume design nowadays but for Pietro it worked since it made him look powerful and authoritative while having good color balance.

Not dissapointed in the list but I expected Iceman from his original snowman form to his sleek transparent ice form. I completely forgot about brown Wolverine, and for sure earned the top spot.

Punk Storm is the goat of alternate/redesign costumes.

Jim Lee's Cyclops remains the most iconic look for the character & possibly the best looking X-man. and that's saying a lot because _all_ of Lee's redesigns were iconic & still hold up as the best today. what Marvel has done to Cyclops since (and the X-Men in general), should be treated by the US gov't as a war crime, but i digress...

I really like the X-visor Cyclops

I agree, Havok's toned down head apparatus redesign (or outright absence of it altogether in the case of X-Factor) did wonders for the aesthetics of his costume appearances. He's one of, not only my all time favorite X-Men characters but one of my all time favorite Marvel characters as well, but in my opinion his original design(s) were ungodly stupid for how powerful he is genuinely is. I understand they had their purpose, assisting in properly directing and circulating the flow of his powers, but their exaggerated initial size really didn't do him any favors. And while I certainly didn't dislike Magneto's original design, his more modernized contemporary redesign is sick.

Ah, the terryfing MAGENTO.

Yeah nobody liked kitty cat Beast. Easily one of the worst times in the characters history

It is virtually impossible for me to look at Cyclops and not hear the words "Optic Blast!" from X-Men: Children of the Atom.

AWESOME list. The 90s was the most iconic design for X-Men thanks to Jim Lee and Magneto ditching his red and purple garb for the ALL white was INSANE 😍😍. And the older I got the more I appreciated the hashbrown mustard look of wolverine 😂😂, I JUST can't wait to see X-Men 97 and them in the MCU

Of all the X-MEN characters. I always love Magneto’s costume especially the classic one but when they redesign his costume and turn it all white,really fits his character. Plus Wolverine’s costume to me is always iconic to me no matter what costume he wore over the years if I pick one I’ll pick the brown and orange one.

I've always been a fan of the Lee Cyclops outfit. Unlike some of the others with the mentioned 90s pouch-bling (Cable comes to mind), Scott's was not over the top, and I appreciated the asymmetric straps leading to the X roundel. Never been a big Wolverine fan, but the earth tones definitely suit him better than the yellow/blue.

Magneto's White Suit that debuted during the House/Powers of X arc was legitimately his best costume hes ever had.

Chris Claremont originally wanted Storm to look like Grace Jones with a flat-top/shaved sides look which oddly enough was exactly like the hairstyle sported by Will Smith on Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. This is the story I heard from artist Paul Smith on some long-forgotten all-night radio talk show at 3am back in the 1990s talking about how he and Chris came up with the new punk look for Storm; Paul claimed he and Chris disagreed on the Grace Jones image, Paul wanted a rebellious edgier look so started watching MTV's Headbanger's Ball for ideas, Motorhead's May, 1983 album "The Chase Is Better Than The Catch" was being promoted and the single "I Got Mine" featured shirtless Lemmy Kilmister wearing a leather biker outfit. Lemmy was the guest host on the episode Paul watched so he got to pick the videos and being a close friend who toured with Wendy O. Williams on multiple occasions he picked a song by The Plasmatics to kick off the show, it was Wendy's image from the 1981 video "The Damned" that inspired Storm's mohawk, tank top and leather collar to go with Lemmy's biker leather outfit. Storm's new look debuted in June, 1983, a month after that episode of Headbanger's Ball. That was the story Paul told. I think I believe Paul because Storm looked nothing like Grace Jones or Will Smith.

Warren Worthington the 3rd Archangel is the most underrated X-Men & his powerset is actually top notch for a street-level hero

Red Queen Kitty Pryde is my new fav. She is a drunken pirate like Jack Sparrow, but without the Amber Heard issues.

Angels Red and White costume is dope, The archangel suit is still cool too tho

i will watch Dan's videos just in hopes he has to say the name "Lobo". He turns it into "Loaaaaaahh-boaaaaah" and it's too funny.

I disagree with you on Brown Costume Wolverine. It's a good lack, but for me, the Yellow Garbs will always be number one for me.

I prefer Wolverine's blue and yellow costume. The 90's Xmen cartoon introduced me to the franchise, and the blue and yellow was iconic. When I started seeing him in the yellow and brown, all I could ask was "who approved of this hideous costume?"

I have confused Havok with black bolt several times😂

I liked the brown Logan fit and the cyclops pouches costume also

#9: He was the youngest until Kitty join. #4: That Dark Phoenix wasn't the real Jean. #3: It was the team space adventure against the Brood (and being impregnated with a Brood embryo) that caused her to lose contact with nature which triggered the new look.

I could see Timothy Shalamet being a great Angel for the MCU

Marvel needs a new mutant anti-hero team: Mr. Sinister & Archangel & Sabretooth & Juggernaut & Mystique & Destiny & Gambit & Rogue & Psylocke & Omega Red & Colossus & Kitty Pride

Cyclops 2 best costumes are his Jim Lee 90s look and his Phoenix force costume which my favorite

well done ! got me good with that cyclops thumbnail ....ahahahahah 90 s animated cyclops for the win

What happened to What Culture Comics, my everyday needs you guys 😢

Kitty didn't change from Shadowcat to Sprite - she was Sprite earlier!

Warren Worthington the 3rd Archangel needs to bond with a Symbiote & he needs a coo, maybe even Divine weapon. Spear?

Wolvie's brown n yellow is said to be a spec ops scheme where he mostly teamed with Nightcrawler, rather that when he was on Blue team run by Storm.

Feline Beast was utter garbage… hated that redesign

I like the the whit on magz

I wish the media focused on Archangel more h's a badass character.

What about Psylocke?!☹

What about Rogue? Her original costume was very bland until years later she was given a more badass look.

Kitty is my favorite character but her black-gold uniform makes her blend into the background. nothing about the look stand out. her Pirate Kitty, now THAT'S a stand out look for my girl

Man the 80s and 90s were the good stuff.

Y'all remember magz toy with the magnet in it??

Dear Dan from WhatCulture, I say this with love and encouragement: your narration speed was much too slow for my taste. My guess is you're just trying to be clear, but I think people will be able to keep up if you sped up your tempo. Great video otherwise!

Banshee!

Fun List 👏💪🎉

10. Definitely agree 9. I prefer when he has a top but without the stretched shoulders 8. Agree 7. I prefer classic blue gorilla-Beast. 6. Black and silver Archangel from the 2010s X-Force is better, imo 5. The better version is when they inverted the colors 4. Definitely agreed 3. Her classic is better. I also like the white outfit she had in Warren Ellis’ run on Astonishing X-Men, where she looked more regal and Goddess-like. 2. Yep 1. And here I am thinking I’m the only person who preferred brown and orange Wolverine over yellow and blue. You’re also missing, imo, Jim Lee’s Rogue and Japanese Psylocke and early-2000s Cable, like the one they used in Marvel vs Capcom 2, where they reduced the Rob Liefeld-ness, with less armor, fewer guns and a slimmer frame.

Awesome

ICEMAN IS NOT A FRUIT LOOP!

I know one look the X-men do NOT need. Black Leather.

So the Phoenix Force didn't corrupt Jean. Mastermind and the Hellfire Club corrupted Jean, i.e., corrupting the PF.

Rogue from X-Men TAS was my 1st love That A$$

Do the worst redesigns and put Origins Wolverine's Deadpool design

Havoks older 😭

New cyclops looks so dumb.

I can tolerate anything not drawn by Rob Liefield.

Not a fan of feline beast

Punk Storm absolutely sucked, Jim Lee era Storm was absolute perfection

Feline Beast was the WORST look

Feline beast is hands down the worst look for the character. Original blue beast will always be the best.

Ugh Punk Storm was a downgrade.

Every redesign after xmen 300 is kinda lame.

Wolverine‘s brown costume is brown because it’s $#!+

most of these redesigns are pretty awful and the originals looks better. only arcangel looks better
