Not a fan of the way she is using her powers atm. I personally did not like the run but putting that aside 2019 X-men did things right for Betsy. She had Psy-knife, Sword + Shield, TK, butterfly effect. Current Betsy is boring in comparison.

I only continue to read X-books because I don't spend any money on it.
Yeah miss that version of Betsy. I don't want her to have Captain Britain powers. Or that lame costume.

The main version of the costume, which isn't bulky and doesn't have a helmet, it's great.
Oh it was a cover but baby this is everything. Love the psychic knife and butterfly reappearance.
This costume is great.

I like it when RB Silva draws it.
Also just get rid of the cape.
Brian didnt need a cape.
A red cape adds a ton of super-heroic signifiers to an image. For someone who's unsure of her own inherent goodness, I felt it was a powerful subversion. But I agree, it's unnecessary. Betsy's more Catwoman than Batwoman.
It's interesting that Betsy's Cap always looks best in blue-hued shadows that turn the fire-engine reds to magentas and violets. For me it's the weird choices on the torso, abdomen and legs. The breastplate is okay despite not crossing in an X, and the battleskirt color breaks are repetitive, but why would she need a racing stripe on her pants?
i love the cape since it goes full circle to her armor and cloak look back in the 80's before she got kwaninfied.

Also based on Union Jack. Crosses like an X. I assumed it would match, and for some reason it doesn’t.
tbh betsy's powers besides her constructs have been pretty diverse, telekinesis and telepathy used in plenty, obvious increase in physical atributes since nothing has scratched her even slightly so far, flight.
i do agree that i want more constructs like a bow, a flail, an axe, more shields forming a phalanx, also to feature in hickman's x-men (probably being saved for outworld-arakko)
and her breast plate does have an x, but its a square center one witout the contrast on the top so it doesnt pop as much, since its not blue but red.

I love the cape on that cover...it's usually shorter in-story...it reminds me of her Outback armor look.
