- Monica Rambeau appears just like she did in her first appearance, in 1982's Amazing Spider-Man Annual #16.
- Clint Barton is wearing one of his classic Avengers Costumes.
- Víctor Álvarez is seen with Luke Cage's original costume and sporting his afro style, just like Cage in his first appearance, in 1972's Hero for Hire #1.
- Gutsen Glory's costume is heavily inspired on Cable's first X-Force Costume, first seen during the X-Tinction Agenda crossover.
- America Chavez is wearing the original Miss America's costume, with her second headpiece, as seen for the first time back in 1943's Marvel Mystery Comics #51.
- Luke Cage is seen with his early 90s costume, first seen in Cage #1.
- Kara Killgrave returns to her punk phase, common during her Alpha Flight days, with the costume from her entry in Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe Update '89 #5
