The 8 Best Costumes in August's Marvel Comics

Marvel.com's fashion columnist highlights the best looks from this month's new books!

Marvel Comics' own Emily Newcomen is our fashion columnist, an alumna of the Fashion Institute of Technology, and (like her style icon Mary Jane Watson) an extremely natural redhead.

Summer may be winding down, but the looks in Marvel’s August issues were hotter than ever! It was an exciting month—between the Emma Frost's HOUSE OF X looks and the stylish pages sprinkled in MARVEL COMICS #1000, there were a ton of stylish, exciting looks to choose from.

Here’s a roundup of my top looks for August!
