You mean mark silvestri started drawing rogue with a body first.

Her 90s look...her bomber jacket..the book that sold 8 million copies..that was all Jim Lee. Not the Mutant Massacre era with Silvestri..her in the Savage Land and her in the debuting issue with the Acolytes from 91. That's when her popularity took off.

I didn't know this for years, I thought she was white.


Whut!!

Lol, y'all nikkaz is deprived.
This is because y'all Gen shunned diggin in the crate.
So, you never read none of the source material for the shyt you were marketed to like.
So, you don't even know anything about the shyt you like.
In the information age of all places, too.

:mindblown: Seriously....this is something that people thought?

I don't quite understand the Sheryl Crow reference.....they have similar sounding voices or something? I could just go to Youtube but I don't feel like it. LMAO.

Sheryl crow was not always heroin blonde biker waif looking and used to be marketed with ethnic pr.
Sheryl crow used to be a bit more ethnic looking.
when all I wanna do is have some fun came out.
Sheryl crow and this other black chick, imani copolla.
Both crow and copolla had the same curly dark hairstyle.
that was viewed as eclectic and both were fine as fukk back then.
It was when both debuted.
So, I know exactly what happened with the whole Sheryl crow shyt.
Sheryl crow looks totally different.
from the crow later gens became familiar with.
Plus, they never played up crow's ethnic connection to mike jax.
When, she was known as kid rock's gf, too.
Plus, both copolla and crow kinda wore shyt at the time.
That kinda had no basis, or connection.
As most races would not infringe on the others look in the pop realm.
shyt was still kinda segregated in popular culture compared to now.

Later on crow changed her look, but her and copolla had that weird what in the fukk are they confused thing going on.
Plus, they were playing up crow was ethnic
By pr'n her mike jax background credits in thriller.
To make it seem like she could crossover to black music.



imani copolla
DEBUT

LATER
littlejackie-080308.jpg


on her debut, black women did not really take public chances to much like this.
Unless you were mad eclectic and being eclectic like this was taboo.
All because of Lisa bonet and the cosby/sex movie/married to Lenny kravitz goes crazy and locks her on an island.
Then the subsequent Lenny kravitz album j card photo controversy that he is still trying to recover from.
Which may never happen because it was so explicitly lame.
Nobody could fukk'n get past it and it had no place and kravitz could not explain it and all the bonet weird shyt going on.
Plus, bonet ruined her career being weird for no reason.
She probably can't even explain what the fukk she was on.

So, copolla was lumped into that weird eclectic weirdness.
Since she was black and flopped.
[wiki, writes about copolla with inaccurate dates and makes it seem like she set the world on fire with cowboy and did not, at all]

Meanwhile,....
Sheryl looked like copolla in look and was white.




So, back then crow was this weird kinda mix of what the fukk is she.
When crow debuted she had a totally different look.
Than the look crow adopted.
to relaunch as a biker bar chick with the shytty blond die job and heroin muscle atrophy ribcage physique.

Crow was night and day different on debut.
from the crow the next Gen became familiar.
As a matter of fact looks wise she was a totally different woman.

When she first showed up, it was like who in the fukk is that and her look was totally different.
Later on I guess when we all became settled with her look.
After her image change from kid rock visibility.
Originally, her and imani copolla were kinda like who and what the fukk are these two fiyoine bytches races supposed to be.



Art Barr

Imma try to find the copolla single j card pic.
On there her and crow favor in look swag wise and people were confused back then.

The world was different way different for women before erykah badu showed up.
All these eclectic and ethnic looking bytches need to pray to badu.

This wiki shyt is wrong as fukk about copolla, too.
The debut single for copolla was out way before the album dropped.
Like considerable gap difference between single dropping and album dropping cause I have both crow's debut on tape and I have copolla's debut single on cd.

two face was black too.
latest
I told this cat I work with that and he hit me with the :stopitslime:. I asked him who played Harvey Dent in the OG movie and hit him with the :stopitslime: right back. The reason Billy Dee Williams took the role cuz he knew he would become Two-Face and looked forward to playing him, but we all know that didn't happen :mjpls:

This is why I hate marvel comics now and stopped reading xmen.
When Jim lee left.
Then, specifically I stopped reading all marvel.
When they made overpowered outer dimension apocalypse.

Xmen been dumb as holy fukk for twenty years now.

shyt is complete bullshyt from the Dave/claremont to silvestri Claremont to lee Claremont years to what they did after jim lee left.
It is deplorable,....


Art Barr

When will marvel take Loeb and Quesada.
those two bum indie book hack out back and shoot them.
They never should have been marvel higher UPS.
Never,.....you make the guy who ruined batman a higher up at marvel.

Just how stoopid is that.

Save opening your mouth.
Trying to be critical of my length in a post.


Art Barr

"yes, It's not just the fact that the Lex Luthor looked like a light-skinned brother in the DCAU/Timmverse, his voice actor (Clancy Brown) made him sound like a professional, corporate black man. thecoli.com"

^^^^^^^^ I literally found that comment underneath the pic when I googled it :wow: #squadgoals

Her 90s look...her bomber jacket..the book that sold 8 million copies..that was all Jim Lee. Not the Mutant Massacre era with Silvestri..her in the Savage Land and her in the debuting issue with the Acolytes from 91. That's when her popularity took off.


Silvestri is the guy who gave rogue a fat ass, breh.
Jim lee just updated the green leather club jacket to a bomber jacket and put a yellow stripe on her costume as opposed to black to contrast against her green.

You know nuffin of the seige perilous era trying to correct me.
So, stop trying to correct me cause I know you are fukk'n wrong as fukk.

Rogue always had a jacket and silvestri is the guy who first made rogue into a brick house with big hair.
Rogue always had a stylish jacket, from her mystique villain days.

Silvestri is the guy who gave her the big hair with the weird curl jn front.
that rob liefield stole as his signature bang for his women characters.
Jim lee just provided a makeover that had a bit more mutant military civilian personality to the xmen uni's on the relaunch.

Art Barr

*sold a signed jim lee xmen 1 last year for emphasis.
*sold a debut deadpool pack for a hundred dollar profit, last year.

SILVESTRI ROGUE REDESIGN
tumblr_m82ojq2fqw1rrlv44o1_1280.jpg



Uncanny 244 : Debut of jubilee and xbabes get fresh to hang with dazzler at the mall. Fun issue!

XlRUs.jpg


JIM LEE also is the guy who redesigned rogue's outfit and removed the jacket originally..after rogue was killed and brought back.
after going through the seige perilous the second time fighting sentinels.

On xmen 1, he brought back the jacket to her outfit.
The jacket silvestri made a staple to her look.
Silvestri is the guy who made rogue into a looker.
Before that she was not drawn to be attractive and had a wack short bang haircut.

From what I've read, the series peaked with Uncanny 111-143 as far as I'm concerned.

Claremont/Byrne/Austin >>>>>>>
the X-men vs Magneto in his volcanic base >>>>>>>
Proteus >>>>>>>
X-men vs the Hellfire Club >>>>>>>>
Dark Phoenix Saga >>>>>>>>
Days of Future Past >>>>>>>>

I liked the Dave Cockrum and Paul Smiths runs as well.
The series started falling off to me when they undid the death of the Phoenix (Jean should've stayed dead after Dark Phoenix IMO), and the sins started to pile up, especially the lasting damage they did to the character of Cyclops just for the sake of having another X-book out they could market.

There were still good stories from time to time (Mutant Massacre had some dope moments and I hear great things about the original Genosha storyline and the return of the Brood), but it doesn't seem to be as consistently enjoyable post-200. Maybe it's different for some of you who have read more of the material past that point. I liked Claremont's swansong (X-men 1-3 with Jim Lee), and Astonishing though. Age of Apocalypse is supposed to be legendary as well.

Anyhow, more on topic: Rogue's 90's design is iconic, but I'm also partial to her mid 80's look when Romita Jr. was on the book:

I liked her Paul Smith look as well...
