Betsy Braddock: Psylocke/Captain Britain Appreciation 2019

[Havok83]

Ugh. I hate that. Is Kwannon using it now?

Not yet in DOX, as she hasnt really used TP but FA did establish that butterfly motifs are linked to her so I expect it to appear

[Infernal-Ginger]

Kwannon seems very out of place on the cover

[CGAR]

That should go in thw Kwannon thread.

Would have been cool to see a Magneto/Betsy Braddock cover.

Since they do have a some interesting recent history.

[Havok83]

Sigh, as expected, Betsy's exposure is decreasing. I dont see as much interest in writing or drawing her as Captain Britan as opposed to had she stayed Psylocke

CB Betsy had a pretty prominent spot on the big splash page at the end of History of the Marvel Universe

[CGAR]

Yeah i've chatted with artist. Who have no interest in drawing her in Captain Britain. For example: Olivier Coipel

So if he doesn't want to imagine what other artist feel.

That was pretty insignificant. Im talking actual X-men stories and crossovers

[Frobisher]

“Magneto, you should unleash your powers of magnetism. I can show you how.”

[CGAR]

Ok ill be the dbag that says it:

Time to give Betsy the Monarch codename and give her a sexier uniform.

This isn't an elevated status. She's only in Excalibur.

She's not in the Quiet Council. Doesnt ever interact with them.

She's had no interaction with X-Men leadership: Storm, Jean, Emma, Cyclops, Magneto, or Xavier.

I feel like this mantle is going to be a crutch now. Yes you can disagree with me.

But these are my thoughts now.

The only intersting thing happening is now she'll have some history with Apocalypse.

in recent issue, they established that Betsy is Britain's hero so I don't think Betsy should show up in crossovers in the USA - she will have her hands full with Britain & Otherworld

But Kwannon I don't think should be either...she isn't a hero....that artist just likes drawing Psylocke..if anything Rachel or Jean should be there instead

Sure I want to see more Betsy but it has to make sense why she would be there

Nah, IA with you. CB really should be a temporary thing for this arc in Excalibur bc I do see it limiting her as well.

and I dont expect Britian and Otherworld to be touched up anywhere but Excalibur but severely limits her, much like it did to many of the original Excalibur cast

[Vishop_]

Not surprising to see Kwannon instead of Betsy getting more exposure.

[CGAR]

No it makes sense that they are exposing Kwannon. But the promise of a legacy title like Captain Britain is not panning out at all for Betsy Braddock.

[Wiccan]

Kwannon's book(Fallen Angels) is ending, and we don't know how big of a role she'll have on Hellions, but with Sinister supposedly being the leader, it's most likely not gonna be as prominent as Betsy's lead/leader role in Excalibur. Are we really gonna be saying Kwannon has it sooo much better than her just because she's on a cover of X/F4?...
