Apparently Mystique in the comics was once given Rebecca Romijn's design from the live-action X-Men movies for only two issues...

While Marvel & DC Comics often try to emulate their respective live-action movie counterparts by making alterations to certain character's designs, powers and even personalities (such as Spidey briefly adopting organic webbing to reflect the Sam Rami Spider-Man trilogy, or Iron Man becoming more snarky and jokey to reflect Robert Downey Jr.'s performance in the MCU), sometimes said-alterations either end up not working or even lasting long...

Case in point to the latter... back in the early 2000s Marvel actually tried to have Mystique (aka, Raven Darkholme) in the X-Men comics emulate actress Rebecca Romijn's physical portrayal of the character from the live-action X-Men movies, but it quite literally only stuck around for just a single issue! Specifically in X-Men: Forever (2000) #6 by Fabian Nicieza & Kevin Maguire, both Mystique & Toad were exposed to some kind of radiation device while teaming-up with various X-Men members, and in the process had both their mutant powers and physical appearances significantly altered to more heavily resemble their live-action counter-parts. Toad was given his elongated tongue (which he originally lacked during the Silver Age and solely had the leaping abilities), whereas Mystique was obviously given her naked scaly reptilian appearance from the movies as her new "default" form.

This issue came out in April 2001.

However a little over one-year-later in July 2002 when Mystique appeared in Uncanny X-Men (1963) #405 by Joe Casey & Sean Phillips, Mystique was suddenly back in her normal comic book appearance without any explanation. In fact, the only other time the scaly-reptilian design reappeared in comics was in a nightmare sequence from X-Treme X-Men (2001) #33 by Chris Claremont & Igor Kordey from October 2003, wherein a villain named the Reverent caused Rogue to suffer a vision wherein she transforming into her adoptive mother in both appearance and personality and sadistically slaughtering her fellow-teammates Bishop, Storm & Gambit.

Aside from those two examples, Marvel has never had Mystique in the comics adopt her design from the live-action X-Men movies.

Heck, the only other time Marvel tried to have Mystique emulate Rebecca Romijn's portrayal was in Wolverine #64 & #65 from 2008 as the finale to Jason Aaron & Ron Garney's awesome "Get Mystique" storyline, when in preparation for her final confrontation with Wolverine in the story's climax, Mystique utilized her shapeshifting powers to erase her clothing, fighting Logan completely naked in order to demonstrate to him that she's not a coward nor is she ashamed of herself. And even then, this time Raven lacked the reptilian-scales of her live-action movie counterpart, instead maintaining to her classic comic book design just without the white dress or skull adornments.

But yeah... just a weird bit of obscure trivia concerning Marvel's iconic shapeshifting femme fatale.

I wonder why Marvel suddenly ditched the live-action movie design after only introducing it for a single issue and describing it as her new "default form." I know there was a year in-between the publishing of X-Men Forever #6 and Uncanny X-Men #405, but still...

Doing some reorganizing, got a deal on a bunch of 200s Uncanny Xmen and some new boxes. Found these original pages that got a little abused over the years packed away, from Chicago comic con, um, 2003? I didn't even know that artists drew characters for you! And then he was like here, have a Rogue filled page!

Yo, so I took this old quiz I had on my UQuiz account because I noticed a lot of people have been taking it recently. And there was this line I found in these writing snippets (took me a second and a frustrated google search to realise I WROTE ALL OF THEM) and this line right here grabbed me by the throat: "it dawns on him slowly, like he's waking up from a deep sleep. That, like him, she lost her power too. But unlike him, she's better off for it." and I was like WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT FROM?

Turns out it's from a VERY unfinished Romy fic I wrote years ago when I finished reading X-treme X-Men and I was sad. Anyways, here's the finished bit that punched me in the butt:

It starts in the garden.

The first time they’ve been alone since Vargas ran a sword through the both of them.

They’re quiet first, letting the sounds of the night wrap around them. Their friends are still chatting a few yards away on the back porch.

Then she turns to him and without words, she places her bare palm against his arm. His hair stands on end and it takes everything in him not to pull away from her touch.

He’s been on the receiving end enough times to know it’s unpleasant. But this time, nothing happens.

It dawns on him slowly, like he’s waking up from a deep sleep. That, like him, she lost her power too.

But unlike him, she’s better off for it.
