 “For so long, my life has been out of control. Chaos and serendipity, wrapped in insanity. I have suffered, I have lost. Not just my life, but my very soul, my self. But no more. Now I know who I am.” – Elizabeth ‘Betsy’ Braddock, daughter of Otherworld, mutant, telepath, telekinetic, defender of the realm and, above all, X-Man.

If this wasn't captioned I'd think this was an art piece from Jim Lee from some point in the early 90's.
Seriously, Alex. Everyone is looking so classic...especially Psylocke.
1. I kinda want Kitty to go back to the blue Shadowcat costume if we can’t find a cool uniform for her. It is the only nice one she has ever had.
2. I don’t get the appeal to many of Jean and Havok’s 90s uniforms.
3. Seeing Cable here has me thinking I would love for Extermination Cable to stick around. He’s like an interesting combo of Nathan Summers and Nate Grey.
Yes! 90's Jim Lee vibes! I LOVE IT:)
By the way, if you dig Philip Tan and have an Instagram account, he is a cool follow. Before I deleted IG, I used to enjoy his posts.
Here is the full image.

Nothing compares to the 90s X-men...Lovin it.
Seeing Rachel like this brings back memories. Excalibur, Alan Davis...
A time when the Phoenix was a controllable force without drama and endless issues about nonsense.
Why couldn't they have kept it simpler...
@Rashaan,
I think an update to Kitty's blue uniform would be good. I kinda hate that while she's the head of the institute now her uniform is basically a trainee outfit with a popped collar.
@Alexis, Rachel was titalky the best Phoenix host. Oddly enough, the Phoenix makes Jean a mess while Ray has seemed messier without.
@Alex, the popped color actually make it look worse to me. Granted, she doesn’t need a face mask, but she needs something more individual. I actually like that none of the X-Men wear eye masks anymore. It’s pretty pointless since everyone knows their civilian identities. I also kinda appreciate that some of them like Jean and Kitty (the ones with the worst uniforms paradoxically) no longer go by code names/aliases. At this point, there really is no need for them. Unless, we think of them as akin to military callsigns.
@ Chisolm ....so true about Rachel and Jean
Yeah. Rachel actually struck me as way more mature durinb Excalibur’s first volume than she has been in recent years.
Am I revising history or recalling wrong?
Looks awesome. Jean and Betsy look great.
@ Chisolm. Yes she was. Alan Davis drew her with more muscle tone.
LOL. I meant personality-wise; not athleticism. Though she did look fitter back then.
haha. Sorry. A bit more mature, though Captain Britain always considered her a star 'child.'
In fact, Alan Davis is aweome at drawing athletic body types for his characters. I so miss his work.
wahh! i really love this, ill definitely try as my wall paper thanks for sharing this
this is the last hurrah of Jim Lees X-men, feels like the team can never move past that style. The Nostalgia is cool, as I appreciate Jeans and Rogues looks, despise Psylockes, and the rest are just there lol.
Marvel no more Jim Lee please.
