So what is your fav? I actually liked the black leather (sans priest collar), depending on who drew it. In my mind it made the x-men look like more of a cohesive unit and it also had a functional look about it, like it could absorb a blow and coushin impacts. Also it was more stealthy looking. Some red trim aside, I could understand how Kurt could slink through the shadows undetected. He may be able to blend with shadows due to his fur or the dimension he teleports through or whatever the current explanation is, but bright red and white always seemed like it would give away his position.

I like his old costume. His original one. I didn't like the priest look. No Priest Nighty. :X

Of course I like all the old uniforms. I'm sure you've noticed the new Reload costumes are similar to the older ones? Ya, brings this 'ol boy back to the old days of the X-men wayyyyy back in the 70's. Ok, so I'm nostolgic. :)


Although Hank's costume needs to be redone. :ick

Yeah, that weird cut of an X on his chest has to go. But then I was never a fan of his newer cat-like apperance to start with, either.

I personally hate it when they draw Nightcrawler really skinny. Makes him look pathetic.

I liked the white towel he wore in that one issue of Excalibur.

ORIGINAL Age of Apocalypse…basic black with the accents of red body armour…definitely :lick …didn’t care for the new at all…

I love his original costume…it’s a classic…plus he’s one of the few super-heroes who didn’t wear his undies on the outside…there’s not too many that can make that claim ;)

The original one is classic, but I don't think it's my favorite :

Funny how attached to it Nightcrawler was, he kept it for the longest time.

I liked the leather ones (like they said in the movie, the bright spandex can sometimes look just a little silly...) and the leather made them look more like a cohesive team.

I'm going to vote for the newest one - the one Alan Davis drew him in on one of the Uncanny covers. It kind of looks like the original one, but more streamlined.

I haven't seen him wearing that one exactly. He wears one that is similar but with no collar.

That's a great link! Missing some stuff, but still great.

I have a deep attachment to the original one. Specifically, that particular graphic in the above link. I obsessed over that picture and the accompanying bio for years wanting to know more about the character.

#3. What the hell were they thinking? And not just on the whole effed up toga pirate thing. Look at his legs. Whoever drew this needs to stop going to early Image books for his anatomy.

I have no opinion on #4. It's okay. Dramatic improvement on the legs, although they're still a bit insane.

And then there's #5. I think I hate that one purely because it's from a time when the books really really sucked. I can't even remember what was happening at that point, I just look at the picture and get a feeling of profound suckage. Bad vibes.

#6. The whole graphic is so bizarre I can't tell if I like the uniform.

#2 and #7 are my favourites. I think this just means I like Alan Davis.
