A Look At The ‘X-Men: First Class’ That Almost Was [Concept Art]

If the costumes worn by the merry mutants of X-Men: First Class weren't appropriately Jack Kirby X-Men-esque for you, then perhaps this look at concept art for the movie by Matthew Savage might make you feel even more wistful for what could have been, offering alternate looks for Beast, Havok and Mystique in addition to some interior designs from throughout the movie.

Fans anticipating future X-films, including the "Days of Future Past" inspired sequel to First Class can apparently count on further costumes that aren't all motorcycle jackets and pleather, meaning the more superheroic tradition of Matthew Vaughn's film will probably live on in 2014. Costume designer Louise Mingenbach has certainly communicated as much, anyway.
