There, I fixed it. Samus is already awesome. Her zero suit is actually what we all would expect to go under a power suit like what she wears. This just seems like a change of design for changes sake without either the author or the artist really knowing anything about the character.
Really love some of the other redesigns though.
Also agreed with this. I don't think it's the existence of the Zero Suit that's the problem, it's just the prominence of it, especially in Other M. That's the kind of thing you'd expect to see under the big suit of armour that Samus iconically wears.
