This X-Men t-shirt proves just about anything can be sexy. With blue, scaly skin, eerie yellow eyes and bold red hair, Mystique lays on her back with a gun in one hand and skull in the other, yet remains oddly seductive. Part of the appeal is, of course, the fact that she's in a full body, form fitting body suit. The other factor is her character is a shape shifter and can turn into whatever she wants, which would be an amazing skill for a real woman to have.
This X-Men t-shirt depicts Mystique in a way never before seen: as a pin up girl. It's a style of dress and photography that is undoubtedly synonymous with sexy. So while Mystique is deadly and cold in X-Men comics and movies, here she is totally bad (where bad means good).
