Never got the console war with 80s Marvel fans vs every other era Marvel fans.
Like nobody give a frick about Beast or any pre Lee's Rogue costume, why they seethe at those
90s Rogue is my Rogue, but I'm also partial to her suit with the cloak.
To play armchair psychologist, It's exactly because so many elements from the 80s were overlooked in terms of pop culture osmosis compared to those from the 90s and earlier.
And it's not that no one cares about those elements, they just never had the glut of chances to gain the traction their successors and predecessors received.

I have nothing against Jim Lee but the X-Men were incredibly popular before him and were incredibly popular after him and his designs are only considered iconic because those just happened to be the ones they were using at the time when Marvel managed to get a successful cartoon and multiple video games going.
Jim Lee made the X-Men relevant. It's hilarious
that people here are still seething about him after thirty years. Decades later and his designs are still the most iconic versions of the characters and the only ones the general public cares about.
Jim made 90s X-Men stand out on their own two legs as one of the definitive highlights of the 90s. So whenever someone talks about X-Men from then on, they're going to talk about the 90s X-Men. X-Men #1 is still the best selling comic of ALL TIME.
No try Chris Claremont.
Lee also co-wrote but Claremont never co-penciled.
Ugly ass hair
I concur.
Everything about that design is ugly.

But 80s Rogue was clearly the blueprint they were using for the X-Men Evolution goth makeover.
Yes, but there's a difference between being influenced and adapting the design wholesale.

But the 80s came before the 90s.
That suit is also terrible
Frick you
It's equally as good as the design OP posted, so yes, it is terrible
Only reason anybody gives a shit about Jim Lee Rogue is because it was the design used in the cartoon show.
>Only reason anybody gives a shit about Rogue is because of the cartoon show.
Correct.
>80's fans STILL seething about Gambit and Venom to this day
>80's fans STILL seething about Gambit
Why?
I hope you jimlee gays catch aids and die
That won't change the fact that he helped boost your shitty comics into popularity.

Took me a bit to realize why nu-rogue seemed so familiar; she looks just like Cheryl from Archer.
Evolution Rogue defined goth fashion for me.
Nope, she was a gonk back them.

>Gets a costume exclusive to a game that's a fusion of two costumes
