I don't really need more UK based heroes but I would love to see Pixie on this team. Her and Betts interacting again would be fun and it could hopefully lead to Dazzler showing up again to visit them both. I NEED that Ali/Betsy reunion. I'd like Rogue to stay on the team if only because I've been enjoying her and Betsy's interaction. She's been the only only to try and comfort her and call her out on her ish.
I'm down with whatever comes in Excalibur I just hope Betsy is pivotal in carving out the new mission statement post XoS because I don't think Apocalypse is going to make it.
Ya;ll make a lot of telekinetic plot bridges. Just like Tinis plots. I miss Betsy. This mess we have isn't cute.
Question: Who bestowed the Captain Britain mantle on Betsy? Has it ever been told exactly how she became the new Captain Britain?
Lord Ewing *Praise His name! Uplift Him in song!* Your divine works will be remembered and glorified in worship for all eternity. Amen!
The January issue!
EXCALIBUR #17
TINI HOWARD (W), MARCUS TO (A)
Cover by MAHMUD ASRAR
QUEEN ELIZABETH III?!? Opportunities and opportunists. Two heads-of-state seek to restore the state of things.
32 pages, $3.99.
Intriguing. I hope Marcos To geta new colorist though. I really like the colors of this last issue. Except the little error. But thats just nitpicks.
This time I felt this was some of the weakest coloring we've had on the book. Between the super pink hair and the inconsistent costume I was through.
I'd kill for Jordie Bellaire or Federico Blee to come on to color an arc. Dean White would also be super interesting. His more muted color palette could create a interesting contrast to To's super pretty art, especially the Otherworld scenes. Give it that extra bite it needs.
Marte Gracia/Sunny Gho would be awesome
I think i liked the recents colorist because it had areas that made me think of Gracia.
Actually Dean White would be great as well. I'd love to do what he could do with To's inks.
I remember he was a highlight in Remenders run.
January is shaping up to be an exciting month for Betsy, but hopefully this new storyline doesn't stamp out the other members of the team, especially Rogue, Jubilee, and Gambit (Tini really needs to learn to respect this character) who have suffered greatly from Tini's writing
It's a shame to have four members of the blue team if it's to misuse them
That cover is amazing DDDD I wonder if that's her back from the dead.... or maybe she doesn't have to die after all
