Excalibur [01] : The Accolade of Betsy Braddock *spoilers*

[Handsome men don't lose fights]

Yeah, but all you need are a bit of context clues. Who else with dark hair would Betsy be shocked to see like that???

Sinister Secret #4847: She’s just made herself a new body. The other is a part of a body with three brains. The angel of death and destruction knows exactly what’s going on, but who is he to point the finger? He’s up to much the same, and more. Screw speculation, this is the new normal on Krakoa.

Actually yes.

Merlyn = Pestilence
Necrom = War
Selene = Famine
Feron/Phoenix = Death

I’d love this Excalibur deep cut and revisionist history.

I somehow doubt Selene and Merlyn would work for Apocalypse when both of them are older than him, at least as powerful, and extremely ambitious. Don't know much about Necrom and Feron, though.

I hate how they did the power transfer with Captain Britain. Why do they always have to make the originals look bad to make room for the legacy characters? Speaking of legacies, this goes for Betsy herself with hers "I'm no longer Psylocke because I'm an evil white Brit who culturally appropriated an Asian woman's body!" GTFO with this "progressive" narrative, Marvel.

Also, too many Americans in a book called Excalibur.

Three ‘Muricans???? EW NO >:^(

white lady who hijacked an Asian woman’s body for like twenty years goes back to being white. SJW CULT COMMUNIST MARVEL STRIKES AGAIN

[Psy-lock]

Um...reading comprehension problems? Never said it's ok, I actually always wanted her back to her OG body. What's not ok is revisionist history.

[CRaymond]

You’re way too precious with Betsy Braddock.

What exactly is “revisionist history” in this circumstance?

"The woman whose life I stole" when in fact she had no choice in the matter herself and Kwannon was brain dead long before Betsy came into the picture.

If you really think about it, that body swap would be a horror story for Kwannon. Let's be real, Betsy broke that thing in like a leather saddle. If I came back to life and learned someone had spent years walking around in my skin, wiping my ass, having sex, getting into fights, pretending to be a ninja, I'd have a psychotic break. I don't even want a slice of cheese if someone else touches it first.

Technically it's not her body. Kwannon's body was killed by Vargas. What Betsy's been wearing for over a decade of publishing history is a body created by Jamie.

Betsy shouldn’t feel too terrible. Before the retcon, she was violated and twisted in an image that reflective of the criminals she worked for. After the retcon, they both were violated and manipulated. Neither was at fault. Kwannon died in Betsy’s original body. Not her fault. Betsy died in Kwannon’s original body. Jamie created a new body for Betsy in Kwannon’s image because whatever. When Betsy was killed again, Betsy created a new original body for herself. Kwannon shouldn’t even exist in this new body. She is though.

People never went to Betsy and said “hey Kwannon, what’s up?” But when Kwannon came back, everyone was like “hey Psylocke. Hey Betsy”. While I get the passing of the name Psylocke, it doesn’t belong to Kwannon. They should have given her a new name to breakout and be her own character. While passing the torch to Betsy to be Captain Britain, Brian fought off hurting his sister and gave the amulet to save her, like a hero.
