REDESIGNING MAGIK

Welcome to Limbo! Our group chose Illyana Rasputina, the marvelous Magik for this round! Introduced as the younger sister of Colossus, Magik joined the 80s New Mutants team as a young teen and has since flourished into an A-Lister in her own right. She's been a member of the Phoenix Five, Cyclops' renegade X-Men squad, the Krakoan New Mutants, and the 2022 X-Men team.

She has several inspiration points for artists and redesigners to pull from. She's most well-known for her all-black 2012 look but has also sported demonic and fantasy influences as someone connected to the hellish Limbo and her malevolent alter ego, the Darkchylde.

See what our enthusiastic and talented team of artists did this round, and make sure to follow them on social media for more fantastic art!

(The handles presented after artists names are their Twitter handles, but many use the same name on other platforms!)

Léa Dupic | @/kimodraw

"I went full speed ahead into medieval land and dressed Illyana in a full metal shiny armour, putting emphasis on her sword bearing arm with a biiiig spiky shoulder pad. Gave her a punk lesbian haircut while keeping her iconic bangs, because I think she should be allowed to be more of a punk lesbian. And I couldn't resist adding a touch of demon form with the horns. She's gloomy she's menacing she's spiky and shiny she's the girl of my dreams."

Giovanni Saroldi | @/RaulGiova 

"Just like matter, let’s give ‘Yana three states! Solid, liquid, gas? Kinda, not quite! From angelic to demonic, with her main form being the in-between totality of herself, where she can draw whichever power she needs.

It’s geometric, it’s chic, it’s retro-futuristic Terry Moore with the Horns of Galaxy The Prettiest Star meets Ludmilla from Bartok mid-transformation."

John Caden | @/johncaden64 

"I've always felt the Bachalo design was great, but could get very male-gazey.  I tried to make it more comfortable, while also keeping the same goth feel.  I do feel she needs to just go all-in goth, so let's shave her head, get some thick black mascara and commit to the bit! "

John Marsh | @/pastelrake

"What if Illyana had been a Russian figure skater?"

Joe Pryde | @/joeprydecosplay

"My inspiration for this design came from the idea of “what if Magik was an elder emo” complete with Kristen Stewart fem mullet, high waist buckled tights, and sleeveless crop top hoodie. I also wanted to pay homage to previous designs."

Haydn | @/ThatsSoHaydn 

"I had but one simple thought: What if the Soul Sword was a rapier? And thus fencing Magik was born. I wanted the geometric shapes of the dark bodysuit to contrast with the curves of the golden armor, whilst still adding a little magic and mystery with her cloak and mask. "

Dale Yaddow | @/DaleYaddow

Version 1 "The Savage Magik". Having been stripped of her magical knowledge, Illyana Rasputin hunts down various enchanted artifacts to replace what she's lost. Becoming desperate she seems to be willing to steal and sometimes kill to get these talismans. Among these are the Soul Dagger of Pixie, the medallion of Daimon Hellstrom, Holy bands from "Heven" and a cursed skull from an alternate version of Lockheed.

Version 2 "Mistress Magik" This is an older more seductive Magik that's been corrupted by the influence of Selene and embraced her sensuality, opening up a whole new avenue of mystical arts that she hadn't dared explore before. She now uses her SoulSword to capture the essences of her foes and much like Selene feeds on them keeping her young and vital.

Version 3 "Magik, Queen of Hell" Many questioned the logic of Magik giving Limbo to Madelyne Prior but the end game has been revealed. Illyana allowed Madelyne to tether her magic to Limbo, knowing eventually "Maddie" would get greedy and begin bringing more power to that dimension. With a carefully hidden clause in the Limbo transference spell Magik takes back Limbo and all the power within it and successfully overthrows all the Hell Lords, unifying the many dreaded dimensions under one fearsome rule, hers.

Anthony Ruiz | @/thwwipstickers

"Almost as soon as Magik was decided on for this design challenges I had two ideas strike me simultaneously ... The first of those ideas was the image of Illyana as a 90's Riot(ish) on the cover of a Magazine. I wanted to give her an edgy grungy vibe but still pay homage to her Demonic nature.

Shortly after Finishing my first Design I just knew I had to make my second idea come to life.

What if Illyana was an Anime Mech Pilot and Wore a Plugsuit... thats it... thats the idea. I really wanted to strike the Balance between Anime Plugsuit but still being noticeably Magik and X-men.

I kept the Bright yellow Color scheme with hints of black and red and chose to interpret her Armored arm into a Mechanized oversize cybernetic arm that helps fuel her Plasma Powered Soul sword that springs forth from her Gauntlet."

Isaiah Cox | @/isaiahbeenlost

"When designing my Magik look, I wanted to expand on ideas I had when drawing her a couple years ago by keeping her look sleek, yet scary stylish! So, I referenced a lot of Castlevania and Yoshiaki Kawajiri designs to get that cool anime look for her down! I plucked some fashion inspirations for the costume from places like: Mugler, Alexander McQueen, LaQuan Smith, JRPG rogues and medieval accessories! And for her new soul sword, I decided to give her an Odachi because since she already lived her Cloud Strife fantasy starting from the Bendis-era, I thought it was time for her to live her Sephiroth moment with this giant Japanese sword!"

David J Hughes | @/0ddeity

"I think with Magik I started out pretty traditional for her. Then I got to thinking our Russian Queen deserves a Mugler-esque fit. I wanted to go down the knight or warrior route, but then I thought ‘What If’ this was an AU Illyana raised by Patch and she got all of Logan’s training rather than Kitty and Jubilee, or, alongside them. So, bham, Oni-demon menpo mask and samurai elements on top of the Mugler flair."

Fleshmonk | @/fleshmonk

"Went through a bunch of design iterations, but settled on this cool plasticky vinyl plugsuit like version of Magik. I gave her a bob to mature her a bit and to move her towards a new silhouette."

Joshua Bruckner | @/joshingtonbear

"I took a bit from Magik's more armored designs, which I've always liked the most, and her goth jock aesthetic, and blended them. I rejected the Bachalo booty shorts in favor of a skirt, which gives her a bit of a 'cheerleader from hell' look."

Seye Sanyaolu | @/seye_art

"My intention for this redesign was Magik in a very dystopian future and so I imagined a 3/4 darkchylde Illyana that is in control of her self and powers (although almost lost it). In this future, most of the X-Men are gone and Illyana keeps a worn and frayed X-jacket on for the nostalgia :’)"

Pat O’Brian wasn’t a bad guy, he was just unlucky. So unlucky that he got himself roped into helping rob a chemical plant. And when the job went south, one of his teammates shot him. And then he fell into a vat of acid. And when he climbed out he fell into a vat of radioactive waste. And when he climbed out of that he fell into a vending machine full of that weird soda Gingold, getting soaked in the stuff. And then the vending machine fell over and crushed him.

One or more of those accidents had an unexpected side effect. When he eventually came to, he was not only alive, but had become so stretchable he could  basically shapeshift! And I guess his clothes had become stretchy too, sure.

Pat decided to use his powers to get revenge on his old teammates. After finding and beating them up brought him no fulfillment, he decided to turn them in to the cops. Turns out some of them had cash rewards posted for their capture, so he was able to make a little money out of the deal. Inspired, Pat fashioned himself a costume out of his clothes and started fighting crime for fun and profit as the superhero Plastic Man. Happily, as is the way of things, the good he was doing soon turned out more fulfilling than the money, and he turned his life around and became a superhero and role model for real.

Maybe he’s not so unlucky after all?

In yet another entry into my obsessions with the Man of Steel, as evidenced by the recently completed essay series, I've also finally decided to put a character design on paper (or tablet) for him. Tried to carve out a pretty strong distinction between Clark and Superman, mostly through posturing. This is a Superman in his mid '20s, a couple of years into the whole Superman deal, as described in the ideas for a cinematic Superman previously expressed. Definitely sort of a rough design here, but I felt like sharing. Might also do some of the other characters mentioned in that essay series, so if you're interested in anyone in particular, let me know!

I actually really adore Supergirl, and it's been so long since the last time I've drawn her. This was a little re-design for fun, and I'm so pleased with how it turned out!

Like Superman's trunks, I've gone back and forth on whether I like the idea of the skirt on her costume, and I think I have landed on digging it. I love that she goes into battle looking cute and kicking ass in a skirt.

When the denizens of Gotham’s underworld need to get the dirt on their enemies or plan out the perfect heist, they call the Riddler. Real name Edward Nashton, the Riddler is an information broker known and utilized by all the top crime organizations. Nothing happens in Gotham that he doesn’t already know about or can’t quickly deduce.

Born the penniless son of Scottish immigrants, Nashton used his brains to make himself indispensable, even despite his lack of any particular loyalties. Hell, most of his clients don’t even like him. His massive ego is matched only by his eccentricities, such as his penchant for challenging clients with riddles and berating them when they answer incorrectly. He considers himself the smartest man in Gotham, and his confidence is well-earned; though rarely one to get his hands dirty, he keeps the city’s underworld running like clockwork.

When the Batman first arrived on the scene, Nashton was none too thrilled about the threat to business. At the same time, however, he felt he had finally found a worthy opponent against whom to test his wits. So began a game of cat and mouse. Nashton planned crimes even Batman could never solve, left clues to test his mettle, and set elaborate traps to defeat him. Although Batman has always evaded him thus far, this just makes the Riddler respect him all the more. So he accepts with grace what defeats Batman is able to deal him, patiently working towards the endgame. Either Batman will finally gather enough evidence to put him away, or he will finally solve the ultimate riddle: who is the Batman?
