I think I like the simplicity of his first and postboot uniforms and I've never understood how someone who wants to be hidden would wear yellow.
I wonder what it would look like if the black and white were reversed, though? Something a little like the TMK era's but maybe more interesting.
The Magic Wars outfit is certainly distinctive and beautiful.

With Jacques, I was surprised just how many variations he had. For example, I didn't realize how many differences between his Retroboot and DCNu outfit there were. I think that makes him one of the most tweaked Legion designs randomly aside from Mon, Jo, and the new kids. Likewise, I didn't realize how many different color and hair looks he had until his first mission (Great Darkness Saga) wrapped.
I really wish his official Legion animated model had a bigger screenshot somewhere. It looks like such an interesting design but something is lost in the small size and thus in my translation.

Maybe for the contrast? When he IS visible he wants to make sure he's noticed. (More likely the artist feels this way than Jacques.)

Looks fine, but maybe they shied away from it because back in the day Tyroc and Jacques were blessed exceptions from the then-cliche of black heroes wearing black and having "black" in their names.

Speaking of Tyroc, I always assumed Jacques' costume change from white/black to yellow/black was to differentiate him from Troy. Likewise with the streak in his hair.
Progress is being made on White Witch. She's about 75% done.

Beautiful, as always. Mysa is an amazing character, interesting in every incarnation, imo. I would have loved to see her in more stories over the years.
