I didn't talk about replacing white heroes with Indian characters. I said ALL heroes.
If you truly didn't care about representation, you would have no issue with changing the race of an existing...
What I'm saying is that if your position is that a comic book reader should be able to identify or like a character regardless of their race or skin color, then it shouldn't matter if all characters...
If the only quality of comic book characters that truly matters is their beauty, would you be fine if we changed every single main Marvel character into a physically attractive Indian person (from...
You replied to my questions, which I directed at those who didn't see a need for the unattractive characters. If the whole representation thing is a non-issue for you, wouldn't you then be fine if it...
If you both generally have an indifferent attitude towards new unattractive or ugly characters, wouldn't you then not be opposed to the idea? If it doesn't matter to you whether they exist or not,...
It looks super cool, but if I'm completely honest, it doesn't exactly scream Psylocke. It could be any old energy-blade wielding female ninja-esque character.
I think a Psylocke redesign needs to...
Questions for those who don't see the need to add more plain/ugly/overweight/unattractive characters:
What are your feelings when you see such characters depicted in comic books?
Is there a...
Ultimately it is pretty interesting why there's so much objection to non-sex bomb female characters in comic books. Or at least American super hero comic books. Even talking about the subject raises...
There's one thing in particular about this whole thing that I've always found perplexing.
There are TONS of comic book fans who consider art that depicts average or ugly characters bad art. Like...
Psylocke's guest star role in Jean Grey #5 was nice. Nothing extraordinary but still pretty cool. In case you're wondering, Jeen did learn some TK weaponry skills, but other characters have used them...
On the other hand, it's important that Psylocke the character has weaknesses and failings. If she's too competent and perfect, she becomes boring. As a fan invested in Psylocke's success or what have...
Psylocke and Spider-Man HAVE met and worked together canonically. See Spider-Man Team-Up #1 from 1995.

Secret Empire is a great book.
Can't wait for Jean Grey #5. Psylocke's gonna mentor her, teach Jeen tk-weaponry.
I had very little to no expectations, and I really enjoyed reading the issue. Great, smart writing so far -- dialog felt real, especially the parents'. Art was nice too.
A very solid first issue....
Maybe the water's just really cold. Or maybe Iceman isn't the only...
Maybe Alan Davis, but he needs to be paired up with a colorist who does flat colors. His work looks off with the more modern style colors.
Man, Psylocke was a complete chump in IvX #6.
You only have hair, I have a sword! *gets immediately knocked out by said hair*
So bad it's almost hilarious.
No Psylocke in ResurreXion unless I'm missing something.
She's probably been relegated to c-list guest star status.
Beware the tenants of Apocalypse.
Like has been mentioned already, this is most likely the work of someone altering reality with the help of a cosmic cube. Remember what happened to Sam Wilson? What better way to corrupt and twist a...
I stopped pulling A-Force after #3, but this new art team looks so good that I'll definitely have to try this title out again.
What's the "right" idea of Psylocke then? Isn't the tk weapon warrior one version of her?
I can't believe all the negativity in this thread. This mini was the best X-book we've had in a while.
I decided to drop this after the latest issue. Dialog is still stilted and unnatural, the story feels incredibly run of the mill X-stuff that could be fixed with fun characterization, but it ain't...
