Yeah, Betsy was great in Reload, easily the best the character's been since the insta-ninja metamorphosis imo. Betsy was one of the precious few things CC really got "right" during this period.
Dunno how she fared during Exiles though, New Excalibur scared me off CC.

Yeah I miss that too. If I had to pick my favoreite incarnation of Betsy it would most definitely be british in the Aussie days. She was so morraly grey and when she fought the Marauders it was marvelous. She was always so badass and it was hella sexy. As for what Jarrod said. LOL
Her outback days were great. The proper british lady with quite the warrior inside.
Her stories seemed to have gotten quite convoluted after that.
Yes...some people claim Claremont fetishized women....but he did know how to make them strong, layered, and interesting without losing their woman-ness.
i honestly think many of today's current X-Writers are scared to write the classic X-Women. i really do.

Psylocke needs to train with Sage in the art of fighting naked. This will complete her ninja training and people can stop complaining about her costume.

Betsy's gotten it down to fighting in a towel... I agree, this is the logical next step.

If Betsy went to X-Force, I'd like to see a variation of her Days of Future Tense look; sleeveless, pants, hairpins and (most importantly) some nice cleavage for those sloppy gigantic funbags!
Actually, I think a simplified version of Salva's X-Treme design might work too. Yeah, it was still buttfloss, but it was a cool look, it was barely used and it'd actually work for X-Force visually.

I think she needs to show SOME skin, otherwise she falls prey to the same wrongs of Dazzler's current costumes. I think having her arms bare would be an improvement, but I do think she'd look great in a sleek black costume like this one.
And Yay looks like Psylocke is in the lead to win a X-celebration week!!!

Yeah the garter belts were pretty much what turned me off from the Xtreme costume too. I know ever since buttfloss all her costumes costumes have to have one full pantleg then the other side if cutoff at the vag. Despite the trauma she was put through New Exiles did actually give her a decent costume. I will also always love Aussie Armor. And even though i might get annexed. I loved the first pink costume as well.

I actually really liked her first pink costume (you're not alone! lol). I think it's my favorite Psylocke costume. I haven't followed New Exiles so I'm not too familiar with her new costume. I've seen a pic or two from it though and it doesn't look too bad. Oh and I helped out and voted for Psylocke for the next X-celebration. Last time I checked it looked like she was winning.

Psylocke is one of those characters I dont mind seeing some skin from, it fits. She's a sexy character. I'm not a big fan of cheesecake, but sometimes it works for the character. I can even live with the butt floss, as it's pretty common in comics. The garters however.......no. :wink:

That's my biggest concern after hearing that she'll be appearing in Uncanny. And the worse thing is Betsy will be drawn by none other than Greg Land. LOL..
It'll be porn face all over again for her..
Fraction + Dodson actually pretty good
Fraction + Land is terrible.
Well.. I'm just hoping the best for her. And hearing that Axel Alonso is a fan of her kinda helps too :smile:
Ultimate Betsy does remind me of Aussie Psylocke. And I love her look. She's just so intimidating even when she's just sitting.. For a character that's just getting ressurected, I hope Marvel won't kill her..
that is a dreadful thing. Porn faced Betsy should NEVER return. Thats when she took a nosedive IMHO.

For some reason this made me giggle. its like a cartoon when the badass hero goes into the dark room, you see a pair of eyes.. go to commercial, come back and the hero(heroine) is all KO'ed and what not.. lol
And a sad question to ask is exactly who is Psylocke? I know her from three points on time in 616 universe. The first and the reason why I love her, from the beginning of joining the X-Men to the Siege Perilous. Then From Lady Mandarin to X-Men #7 which was a bit of a different personality, but explained I suppose.
Then Betsy when she was resurrected until she left in New Excalibur who had sass and all that, but I prefer less "WARRIOR!!" Betsy and more "I'm a proper lady...who'll have you put to death in a gruesome way should you cross me".
Id like the proper "killer" back also, but sadly we are in the age of EVERYBODY IS A NINJA"

I think ninja Betsy is less interesting.
I still love her, but it's just like she always wanted to be a warrior as British Betsy and it was always something underlying that lashed out every so often.
Then she body swaps and from what I gather, she's just all broody and mysterious but still now she's her warrior self and sexual and there's no more real mystery just the illusion of mystery. I wish Betsy was more covered up again and proper that let herself go every so often rather than her always being the warrior and the sexy lady.

She also kissed Beast too during her physical. Wow, Betsy has been a busy little minx. But that's okay, I still love her. And it looks like she's going to win the X-celbration week as well as return to 616 soon. Things are looking up.

Gambit said him and Betts use to make out in X-treme X-men 4 when he was being held captive by Vargas.
Everyone dont forget. If Betsy wins X-celebration week you are obligated to put one of her glorious quotes in you sig and get a avatar of her. Any incarnation or alternate universe. I have chosen ultimate Betsy. As you can see I got started early. can't wait to see what everyone chooses.

Yeah she appears in the issue she's the one who sent out a telepathic SOS alert via Cerebro and Rogue with Weapon X arrived to save the day. She doesn't appear after that, but she isn't shown killed or mentioned that she gets killed. And only Juggernaut dies in this issue, well Syndicate dies at the beginning as well actually.
EDIT -- and when did she ever make out with Mystic? He flirted with her, but they've never had physical contact.. and AoA makeout session was the influence of that stupid whore Bloodwitch or whatever so I try to ignore that one all together. ;)

Wonderful, well, my thoughts are that Ultimate Betsy is more powerful. She's referred to as the most powerful psi in the UK. She fought off Proteus for a minute. Her psi-grenades were absurdly powerful, she said a low-level one left her ex unable to talk for a week. And it seems she could produce psi-blades before her body switch, according to the cover at least and the Kwannon she traded bodies with in that universe hasn't been said to have had any power to profit from.
616 Betsy, though still powerful, her psi-blasts were said to kill if she tried hard enough, but it seems like she has less power on hers since a low level one doesn't seem to leave people without the ability to speak for a week.
Her advantage though would be precog since Ultimate Betsy hasn't shown up as having that capability yet.
Conclusion: Ultimate Betsy for the win.

Wait, you LIKE Psylocke, right? lol. No on Piotr. His girlfriends/dalliances end up with unacknowledged children or permanently fused to alien space bullets.
That and he's really boring.
I'm fine with Psylocke not being entangled with any men once she returns to the 616. X-pairings seem to benefit the male character at the expense of the female counterpart. Clearly, the only way to rectify this is to make everyone gay.

So true, especially if it's Cyclops.
AND yes please, let's have a 616 Jean-Paul/Colossus pairing to replace the ruined Ultimate version.
It'd be the first time I cared about 616 Colossus.
I really have no interest in Psylocke becoming involved with anyone for anytime soon. I don't think she needs another relationship under her belt, the Sabretooth/Psylocke one looked like it was being slowly built but dropped THANK God when I guess CC found out his title was on the chopping block.
I don't mind her being playful/flirtful with her teammates that doesn't make you a whore, but I don't want her randomly making out with dudes especially ones that are already taken.

Wait, you LOVE Psylocke, right? lol. No on Piotr. His girlfriends/dalliances end up with unacknowledged children or permanently fused to alien space bullets.
That and he's really boring.
I'm fine with Psylocke not being entangled with any men once she returns to the 616. X-pairings seem to benefit the male character at the expense of the female counterpart. Clearly, the only way to rectify this is to make everyone gay.
hah!
Fixed.:biggrin:
Really I dont want her with Colossus. I just want more naked paintings.:smile:

Im beginning work on a new custom Psylocke figure.
Using this as Base. She will be British Body and TP again.
http://ryanlb.com/images/dc/blogsize/dcdew2_jade.jpg
The colors will be as her Australian Armour. Lavender and Purple. Skin will be pink/tan of course. hair purple and with the White Streak left in.
She will be an older Psylocke. Leggings will be Purple the top will be Lavender and the trim will be purple. I may give her a half mask or not. Once I get the painting good we'll see..

I like to rip Claremont as much as the next guy, but.....I dont see the problem here. Without context (which I have none, I didnt read the issue), it just looks like a friendly/happy/excited/relieved kiss. Nothing "sexual" or whatever...

Honestly, I just think it doesn't make sense and it's a bit of a double standard. If Storm saved Cyclops from a horde of brainwashed Morlocks, I wouldn't expect Cyclops to kiss her in gratitude, nor would I expect Captain Britain to kiss Dazzler if she saved him from a group of Shadow X-Men.

It is a double standard, but that doesnt necessarily make it incorrect. Men and women react differently (sorry, I honestly dont mean to sound condescending!), and women are traditionally more comfortable with expressing emotions physically. Not to mention its always more acceptable for a woman to be so. If a man does it, he's seen as a pervert. Or a wuss, depending on the act :wink:

It seems I missed a lot since the last time I visited this thread..
I've heard that Psylocke is leading for the next (this) week X-Celebration? What's up with that??
I really have no interest in Psylocke becoming involved with anyone for anytime soon. I don't think she needs another relationship under her belt, the Sabretooth/Psylocke one looked like it was being slowly built but dropped THANK God when I guess CC found out his title was on the chopping block.
I don't mind her being playful/flirtful with her teammates that doesn't make you a whore, but I don't want her randomly making out with dudes especially ones that are already taken.
Yep, I also don't want her to get involved with anyone once she got back to 616. At least not too soon.
But I also wouldn't mind seeing her a bit playful with the guys (in a non sexual way of course)

I don't know ... if we're talking about social stigmas/norms being the impetus to act or not act a certain way, then Psylocke wouldn't be kissing male teammates to express gratitude for fear of being labeled a slut, right?
Now let me qualify that last statement by saying 1) I don't believe that makes a woman as such, and 2) I don't believe Psylocke is either, but since you brought up social norms/traditions, one would have to take the good with the bad when analyzing the situation through that lens.
The only way I could see meshing our two views would have been for her to give him a warm embrace or a hug or something. I think it would have made the most sense and wouldn't have raised any discussion in this thread about how many X-Men Psylocke has kissed, etc.

True, and it would've been much more realistic. However, I still think the kiss fell into "acceptable" territory, and not in "Ugh, Claremont is writing porn again" territory.

Well, to be fair social norms differ hugely... Betsy's a mid-30s, rich, bitch, brit who's been a supermodel, "terrorist" and government operative but had a fairly sheltered traditional childhood. I'm not exactly sure what would be appropriate given her experience, but there's not just one standard for "social norms" and any real relevance goes out the window unless you consider that context.

Blink, AU Forge, AU Black Panther and two unknown women. I think the Beast-like character is Moph.

From X-men 233
" The perfect one two my sweet, I telepathically seize your mind while..."
" No fair Rogue, you're hogging all the fun!"
From X-men 217
" Poor child, has she forgotten I can hear her every Thought."
" Sorry about that Rogue, I hope that didnt hurt, too much."
From X-men 240
" Silly boy thinking to surprise a Telepath."
From X-men 219
"Wolverines, Kill him!"

"I have found my true self. My Destiny. I must fight to protect those I care for"
"Am I so fearful? I suppose the warrior always is."
"I, too, in a way, for innocence lost. I thought my past had made me hard. As deadly in my own way as Wolverine. But this is how I was born. My life merely served to temper and hone the steel that already existed." -All from Uncanny X-men Annual#11

I am rereading the Acts of Vengence storyline. Well pretty uch all of Fabians run. Goodness i never realized how much I despised Kwannon until this very moment. She ruined everything. Well Fabian actually ruined everything but Kwannon holds some responsibility as well. This whole things needs a retcon of the ultimate kind.

Acts of Vengeance is actually one of my favorite story arcs! Jim Lee's Psylocke was one of the best representations of Psylocke, IMO. Don't get me wrong, I know Claremont screwed up the character a lot, but to me visually, Jim Lee's art really brought out Psylocke's persona right after her transformation.
Oh, and Psycwave, I hate Kwannon too, though I don't know if our reasons for doing so are the same ...

I love the mini Betsy!!! Those New Exiles mail images were the best thing about the book.
WATXM Betsy makes me sad though...I only saw up to the one where Emma calls her pathetic and I haven't watched another since then. I don't mind them portraying Betsy as having less skill than Emma but that went over the line. Loved the butterfly though.

It's too late to complain now though, whats done is done. Kind of like the Draco...but were I in charge I'd write a story where Kwannon comes back and they are returned to the correct bodies. I like Betsy in the Kwannon body but if Kwannon were to return I think I'd want her in her own body. I always felt bad for Kwannon, she was one of those characters that was made just to be killed off.

The mini-New Exiles-Betsy is cute indeed.. Haven't see Betsy's appearance in WATXM though. Only saw it once but it was in spanish(?) and didn't understand it.. I loved her design there and it's nice to see the butterfly aura in the cartoon.

Kwannon is dead. And Betsy got a new body when her brother ressurected her.

I found this design for Betsy when browsing the deviantart (credit to the artist) and I think it's pretty cool. Kinda a combination of her Aussie and New Exiles costume..

Kwannon is a wretch. The only reason she should ever come back is as a zombie in a Dead Girl mini and die once agin on the first page.

That is one hella sexy Psylocke. I still like to fantasize that Betsy was always in her original body and Spiral just warped her. Kwannon was a cyborg created to look like pre-asian psylocke and she has always been in her origianl body that is why Jamie brought her back in the asian form.

Yes i have always wanted a Betsy/Elektra meeting. Resolve some of the Hand issues between them, maybe even start up their own european version of the Hand(If they both went the baddie route). Plus I really want to see them fight. Maybe even train together. At least then maybe we could find out what martial arts Betsy is supposed to know.

Betsy's original insta-ninja look was always meant to be a mix of chinese and british features. That's why Logan recognized her when he saw her face.
After Nicezia gave us the body swap, someone must have realized and Fabe added that Betsy and Kwannon had mixed their features (in addition to mixing their personalities and swapping bodies).

I don't think Betsy's transformation was meant to be a mix of Chinese and Euro features originally. I think Logan recognized her because her new body resembled her old one, it was just a "Chinese" version of it, if that makes any sense. So if Betsy was born Chinese, that was what she would've looked like. I guess a better example is if you were to take an African American and tried to do a white version of him, he would look different, but still have certain physical characteristics that were unique to him, regardless of the ethnic change. It's kinda like that old thread where we did Simpson versions of X-Men characters. They'd been "simpsonfied" so they didn't look like regular people, but you could still tell which simpsonfied x-character the drawing was meant to represent. I think that was the case with Betsy being transformed.

So let's play "What do you want for Betsy when/if she returns!"
Just give a brief list of the things you want for her (her look, her power set, her team, her place in the MU, etc.)
Here's mine:
-The body: Keep the merged/Asian body--I think she's got a ton of history in it and has accepted herself in it, and making her go backward or into something new would just be cruel.
-The power set: Telepathy, telekinesis, and the occasional precognitive flash--All punctuated by the triumphant return of the Butterfly Energy Signature! :biggrin:
-The team: I'd like her to either join up with Captain Britain and MI: 13 or in X-Force if they plan to move Domino out of it. She needs a strong position as the skilled fighter and tactician we know she is, and I really don't think she'd do well in the massive team of Uncanny. Plus, who wouldn't love to see she and Warren have it out over her death and resurrection?
-The romance: I say keep her single for a while! Let the girl breathe, and if you're going to send her to England with her brother then hell, why not let her be romanced by a completely new character or maybe form a vicious love-triangle with Dane Whitman and Faiza!

So let's play "What do you want for Betsy when/if she returns!"
Just give a brief list of the things you want for her (her look, her power set, her team, her place in the MU, etc.)
Okay mine...
-The body: Keep the current body. It's pretty vague actually whether she looked (wholely) asian or eurasian after Jamie resurrected her.
-The power set: I'd love her to have the TP back, but always feel that she hasn't use her TK to the fullest potential in terms of skills. So I think she should have only her TK. The Butterfly Aura/Energy Signature must be back IMO. It'd be a mixture of having Swords and lots of Butterflies.:smile:
-The team: Cap Brit and MI:13! As long as Marvel promise that they won't cancel the book for at least 25 issues from the time she join the book.
Finally working together with her brother in a team and learning more about her Otherworld roots.
Oh.. and I'd love to see Betsy actually have a job or running her own business. Especially in the fashion industry.
The second option is X-Force. She'd replace either Domino or Wolfsbane in that book. I always love Betsy-Wolverine friendship. and sorta think that Betsy is made for an action packed-book like X-Force.
-The romance: Yeah.. she should stay single..at least for a moment. I actually have a soft spot for Betsy and Warren as a couple. But if Marvel going to hook them up again. I hope they won't do it any time soon. Let's Betsy enjoy her single life for awhile.. hehe..
CaptainCanada
01-10-2009, 01:13 PM
The Body: The current one; she's had it for going on twenty years, could use consistency.
The Powers: I'd just go with what she's got now; the psi-katana is a cool signature weapon; if either writer wanted a telepath on the team I wouldn't object to bringing that back.
The Team: X-Force or MI-13 would both work.
The Romance: She and Brian should at long last:wink:...; really, though, I liked her and Warren, though for the time being I'd focus on just building her up as a competent, interesting hero after so much time in exile.

Well, I can't say for certain because I don't have the Acts of Vengeance issues accessible anymore, but Logan only recognized Betsy after her mask was removed and he saw her face. In the original arc it was also said the Hand did the transformation through surgery and magic, so she was at least coming from a "british base" still.

I always thought that Spiral mixed and matched the parts of Betsy and Kwannon so that both women were a little bit of each other in DNA, mind, spirit, and body. It would be more difficult to prove what had happened to them, which is why it was so sick and twisted and fun for our favorite six-armed psycho!

Yeah, this was the retcon. Originally though, there was no Kwannon, the Hand did all the plastic surgery and mental conditioning themselves, and Spiral's involvement was either a figment of Betsy's imagination or her (and Mojo) keeping tabs under the radar.

-The team: Legacy. We have Claw-Force, why not Psy-Squad. Her and Charles recruiting for a future that she gets glimpses of. Striving to adapt the dream to a constantly shifting future

I'd like to imagine he modeled it to resemble a more Brit looking Betts.
-The power set: Telepathy, precog. Nothing more or less. kthx
-The team: X-Force with reoccurring role in Uncanny ala Arcangel.
-The romance: Her vibrator.

-The team: 1st choice:X-force, 2nd choice: Legacy, 3rd: Betsy starts her own team. Im sure Cornell could do good things with her but i really dislike Brian. I also would like to see Betsy gain a new occupation in fashion.
-The romance: I agree with Jarrod BURTSY 2K9!

Body: Asian Betsy. It would feel insane at this point to revert her to the Brit body after she's become so accustomed to being in this one.
Powers: Telekinesis. Like others have pointed out, she has become quite adept at using her TK and, IMO, goes with her character at the moment, since she loves hand-to-hand combat and all...
Team: X-Force, hands down! She seems to be made for just such a team. 2nd option would be MI13, 3rd Legacy
Romance: let her be single for a while, but later... maybe... Neal Shaara? (don't kill me people, please!)

-The body: British Elizabeth who still dye's her hair purple and has blue eyes like her fraternal twin Brian, and has retained all of her "Hand" training like the warrior she always wanted to be.
-The power set: Telepathy w/ butterfly Signiture, psycho blast or/and psychic knife that disabled her opponents physically and mentally, immunity to all forms of telepathy & Precognition
-]The team[/U]: Captain Britain & MI:13, or X-Force
-The romance: Allistaire Stuart or Pete Wisdom
-origin of power: and finally some clarification in origin of power either mutant, or Mystically powered !! My theory is (As fraternal twins) Brian turned out human who has an inherent ability to tap into Magical energy that is native to the British Isles, and Betsy was born a mutant, as for Jamie I think he's human who was gnetically altered (mutate) by Doc Croc

Use the other one. Your current avatar could just be some random character.
Speaking of, here are a few avatars I made just now for kicks feel free to use any guys if you fancy one!

Just made these avatars for those who loves Betsy and Hank:
EDIT: just added one more Betsy-Hank avatar with Bonus: Betsy-Rachel and Betsy-Emma
Betsy and Emma air kissing and making snide remarks at each other was fun, I wish we could see more of them together.

Sweet!!! Thanks .LUckyStar <3 <3 <3 <3
Some of us kinda speculated that she'll be taking part in the Sisterhood arc. So it's gonna be April 2009. Yay! Hopefully we'll be seeing something in the Solicit that'll come out next week.
But what Fraction has told you kinda make me nervous.. Not quite sure what he meant by it. Betsy will go evil?? I just hope it won't involve any mind control.
He could be saying that because she'll be part of the Sisterhood, but who would she want back? Could it be Jean? or Kwannon? or Kitty?
It could be one of the possibility. But would Betsy conciously agree on going evil just because she want someone back? Who'd Betsy really want that bad?
Jean - They're good friends. I could see Betsy wants her Back. But would Madelyn agree on bringing back 'the real thing'?
Kwannon - No reason for her to bring Kwannon back.
Kitty - I'm really sure whether she knows that Kitty went missing. She's still with the Exiles when it happened.
What about Meggan? She's Betsy's sister in law. Betsy saw her gone in the Uncanny HOM and CC mentioned that Brian will also be in the Sword of Braddock One Shot.
what issue is Uncanny in right now. i kinda stopped reading it. But will definitely start getting it again for Psylocke
The latest Uncanny is issue #505 that came out last month. Issue #508 will start with the new story-arc focusing on the Sisterhood. So I think it'll be a good start for you.

I do bought alot of the back issues though, especially the ones with Psylocke's in them.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I hate it when your favorite character is written into exile/limbo, when all these great stories are going on. Well look up because from what I've heard Messiah complex was part one of some sort of trilogoy and Messiah War is the second phase. So I have a good feeling Psylocke will definitely be around for that insulation.
I'm hoping she interacts with the New Avengers! That'd be awesome I'd love to see her chillin with Ms. Marvel, SpiderMan, SpiderWoman, that'd be sweet!!

The X-Men sure has lots of events coming out in the future. Messiah War-starting this March, Uncanny-New Avengers crossover latter this year and the third installment of the Messiah Complex-War thingy coming up next year. I really hope Betsy'll be in at least one of those events.
Unfortunately, in order for that to happen, it means that she won't be available for Cap Britain & MI:13.

She sure could show Echo a thing or two. But Bettsy should also join X-Force, she could be the resident telepath on the team, who could out match Emma. And well, if you did read the x-men comics in the early 90s Bettsy flirted alot with Scott so seeing that come back and maybe bit Emma on the butt for doing the same to Jean. It would be glorious even if it leads to nothing beyond kissing or a one nightstand, as long as Emma finds out.:biggrin:
Edit: Forgot to mention Angel is in X-Force as well which could lead to a rekindling and X-32 was a sort of her protege during Claremont's most recent run on uncanny.

I'd love for Betsy to be back to the X-Men, but also think she deserves the bigger exposure to the MU. And the crossover could very well be the way for it.
And as I've said it before, I think Marvel should do (at least) Psylocke-Elektra miniseries. They're like Marvel premier female fighters. And I think it'll sell quite well too.

She's not a telepath anymore. In fact she's telepathically blind at the moment.
And the thing with Betsy-Scott flirting in the 90s... it's not Betsy!! Well.. not entirely. She's still influenced by some of Kwannon's psyche after the body-swap. Nonetheless I think Scott had certain 'thoughts' about her. :tongue:
Betsy clearly said her stance regarding Scott-Emma relationship. But I'm not sure whether I want she to come to Scott nor having an affair with him. On the other hand, I wouldn't mind seeing Scott having more certain 'thoughts' about her.. and of course found out by Emma.
But yeah.. I agree about she's being in X-Force. The book is awesome at the moment. She had history with Wolverine, Archangel, and X-23. And I'd love to see her interaction with the rest of the casts (Warpath, Elixir, Domino, Wolfsbane). Yost has written her in the past (New Excalibur #8). And I think he could do wonders with Betsy.

Dont worry you really aren't missing much. The Sisterhood arc sounds like it could be a real winner. I'll just be glad to see her back in the 616, in ANY form, Minus the thong.
I love a woman in a thong, but then they just become objects. Hopefully she will get some good plot and character development. take some of the focus OFF of Emma.

Messiah war is suppose to be the follow up to the Messiah Complex story. It'll be X-Force and Cable cross over starting with this one shot http://www.marvel.com/catalog/?id=11365.
And there are some early announcement on the X-men Panel NYC Comic Con on the FEb 6th.

One of them is the annoucement of the Uncanny-New Avengers cross over. I think it has to do something with Dark Reign and Emma being a member of the Illuminaughty.

LOL we're super hyper excited! I love it! I didn't think about the possibility of Betsy going 'evil', that'd certainly be a plot twist. This Sirterhood arc looks promising! I've found a couple more teasing by Fraction.
Let's see: after LOVELORN comes SISTERHOOD, about, well, the Sisterhood. Who they are and what they're up to we've been building to for a while, and all kinds of stuff happens. The team gets bigger-- and smaller. The world gets way more dangerous. The biggest fight scene of my career. Grave robbery. Tremendous violence and change. There's the UNCANNY ANNUAL which is called "White Queen, Dark Reign" and it's super-important and was a blast to write. It's also got some tremendous art by Daniel Acuņa and Mitch Breitweiser. Then there's a short thing that spins out of LOVELORN that might be an issue or two and then in the summer...
...umm...
...
stuff happens.
UNCANNY 510 has the biggest fight scene of my career, and i'm the guy that wrote Iron Fist punching out a train.
Grave robbery? I kinda thought about Kwannon, I'm don't know why but I have this feeling she's coming back too since I've seen that cover with 2 Psylockes. Then again remember when Matt talked about some characters interested in reviving Jean Grey? Could it be it? Okay, I want April right now. :evilsmile:

Great to know Betsy'll be included in the biggest fighting scene that's been written by Fraction. But then I was reminded that Sisterhood story will be drawn by .....Greg Land. God I hope he'll do the scene justice.
There're talks that Jean might also be returning this year. With the whole Messiah story moving on.. and Marvel been teasing us that 2009 is the year of the return for the X-Men, I think it's a perfect time for Jean to come back (and possibly Kwannon too). Not sure what role Kwannon will play..
When Fraction said... "stuff happen" I instantly think of Layla Miller.. Could be anything though..

Yeah Metalgorgomon it would be nice to see an Elektra/Psylocke mini, especially now that they are both back in the Marvel Universe, no skrulls and no multiverse.
Now about the whole Scoot and Betsy flirtying thing in the 90s I know part of that was Kwannon but i'm pretty damn sure Betsy had as much in it as she did. It would be nice to see that revisited were she to join X-Force but not a full fledge affair but something that'll lead to a kiss maybe or occuring flirtation just enough for Emma to realize.
But the questions is if Betsy would be doing it this time because she still feels the same way or just to frustrate Emma and put her in her place. Going back to that uncanny issue in Claremont's recnt run, Betsy really fines Emma unbearable for the fake Brit and Queen she trys to be. Having Betsy be Scott's secret telepathic hand like Emma has become, they would already be falling into more intense rivalry and Psylocke is just the women strong enough to put the White Queen in her place. :evilsmile:
Of course for this Betsy would need her telepathy back with the butterfly effect and all, as well as the precog ability, but its return should marke her telekinesis decrease some what in strength.

Oh Gawd i pray this is good.
As for your views on a Psylocke/Elektra mini....i couldn't agree more. I have always wanted to see them team-up ever sense Betsy was first given her asian appearance. They beasically said Betsy was supposed to be the new Elektra and I would have loved to see her reaction to being replaced. Plus, with Elektra having her own dark reign mini coming out where she is all battered and beaten i believe she needs help from her fellow Hand sister.

I have always loved Psylocke... She's been gone for too long... I miss Betts and her being in the Sisterhood arc hopefully means she will be with the team in San Fran for good. It will be interesting to see the interaction with Betts and Emma :evilsmile: -- I remember that old flirtation with Scott. Even if it was Kwannon's influence, she did admit that she thought Scott was hot later on to Jean. Still Betts is above a simple skirmish about someone like Scott. She will beat Emma by outclassing her. Emma can't fight so it would be embarrassing to even try against Psylocke. I'm sure they will learn to get along.... at some point. Plus, it will be cool to have her back with X-23. Laura will be happy to see Psylocke again, I'm sure. Maybe she'll even end up on X-Force... I could see that.
But definitely... I'll have a spot of tea for Betts... kick azz, girl!

I don't mind if Scott has a little flirtation with Betsy. But I don't think it's wise to move anything beyond that. The whole Kwannon thing has made many people think that Betsy is a complete slut. Sure, she likes a little playful flirt. But she's no slut. And.. I don't want Betsy to do the same thing as what Emma did to Scott/Jean during the Morrison run. Betsy is far more elegant than that. :wink:
I think the whole Scott-Emma thing is going to crumble this year. And least in a certain way. The signs are all over the place at the moment. Uncanny and the A World Apart mini has shown them.
For the last several months, Marvel has been putting Scott's and Emma's bedroom scene's to our throat. If they indeed broke up.. god knows where those energy has to go.. LOL..
Oh.. and the TK-TP-Precog-Butterfly Signature Psylcoke needs to happen. She doesn't have to have the phoenix level of raw power. Just more skillful and tactital in using her abilities.
Yeah Metalgorgomon it would be nice to see an Elektra/Psylocke mini, especially now that they are both back in the Marvel Universe, no skrulls and no multiverse.
Oh Gawd i pray this is good.
As for your views on a Psylocke/Elektra mini....i couldn't agree more. I have always wanted to see them team-up ever sense Betsy was first given her asian appearance. They beasically said Betsy was supposed to be the new Elektra and I would have loved to see her reaction to being replaced. Plus, with Elektra having her own dark reign mini coming out where she is all battered and beaten i believe she needs help from her fellow Hand sister.
You know what.. the first time I was exposed to Psylocke.. I tried to find images of her on the internet and found many Psylocke and Elektra fan arts. Other than being drawn with other fellow X-Men, I think she has been drawn a lot with Elektra. I just can't believe Marvel missed the oppurtinity to explore it.

Anyone have that picture of Psylocke where it was first announced she was in New Exiles? That black body glove one, I think Morph was in it also.
I think I know what you mean. There were two pictures of them if I'm not mistaken. Psylocke-Morph-Sabertooth-and Sage were in that picture. They wore some sort of black suited uniform. And Sage was holding a gun. Too bad I can't find the images..

oh God, I forgot it was Greg Land's turn to pencil Uncanny. Can you picture a HUGE FIGHT between a bunch of villainesses and all the X-Women all drawn by Greg Land? lol. I hope he gives Betts long flowing straight hair. I hated his Psylocke on the New Exiles #1 cover.
This one?

I didn't hate it, but I was ambivalent about it. It's almost like an homage to per Anglo body days in the Aussie Outback when she had that perm going on.

Oh wait are you talking about the early concept art? Where they looked like the Xtreme Exiles or something?

THATS the one. I like the concept of the outfit, but could use more covering. Preferrably, with Pink and purple ^^.

I kinda like the matching outfits. But Psylocke's my least favorite. It just looked like a variation of her Ninja outfit. I think it'll be better with pants and the top kinda looked wierd to me..

Definitely not one of my favorite Psylocke's pose. And for a reason the artist (Francis Tsai) seemed to like it. He even used it for cover of Exiles:Days of Then and Now one shot:

Oh wow, good eye! I didn't even notice that before, lol. I'm hoping we won't see that pose again anytime soon.

If she were in a video game, she'd definitely be a zombie from Resident Evil. It's just bizarre she was drawn that way considering everyone else has a fairly normal pose.
