Yeah the yellow does win points for being the original costume, and its inclusion in the TAS gives it a huge leg-up in terms of popularity. I like to think that it was his Alpha Flight uniform, suiting their team's colour scheme more, whereas his brown suit is what he wears with the X-Men, because Xavier forces him to wear something other than a tank top and jeans!

Plus the artwork has been garbage.

Cullen Bunn is fantastic. I highly recommend his run on Magneto, which has now evolved into Uncanny X-Men. Hopefully he will shall be creating X-Men comics for years to come, or at least past the next big relaunch.

Extraordinary, on the other hand.... I like Magik's new costume?

Ooo yes he is. Scott and Emma have been together since.. 2004, I believe. After House of M, where 99% of the world's mutant population was depowered, Cyclops stepped up as the leader of mutantkind in order to keep his race safe. It's been the best thing to happen to X-Men comics since Chris Claremont.

On topic: Aah, the SDCC set has finally been announced. Purple Man and Enchantress are my ones to watch for on Ebay, it seems. Really enjoying Amora's dubious smirk!
