Okay. I like this explanation for Remy's original outfit.

I feel like there was a better way to reveal that, Remy

This was way back in the time between him rescuing Ororo the first time and joining the X-Men. He was...way more of a dick in those days.

i love this explanation

also oh look a fem gambit costume reference don't mind if i do

It really does make sense. Protect center mass, then paint a big target on it so people shoot there.

Interesting that they're saying that Remy got the armor from Lila Cheney now. Or, at least, she took him to the person who made it for him. Then again, that might be true of the actual armor, with the design originally coming from the Guild.

Huh. Sorta reminds me of why Bruce had a yellow bat symbol

Yeah, it makes a lot of sense when you think about it.

We've been wondering for years if there was more than personal flamboyance behind the choice.

The head thing even has a purpose!

fuchsia also says that he's not afraid of color!

He loves color. Though he does look really good in a suit.
