Phoenix-Mother Askani: Rachel Summers Appreciation 2022

It's always creepy to me when Rachel is involved with fellow X-Men since they are her parent's friends.

Oh I totally agree. Anyone that wasn't a teenager (aka anyone other than Kitty and the New Mutants) shouldn't be on the table really as they helped raise her, and/or she might have hunted them. Knowing that Kurt was her uncle and had a strong hand in raising her, and then freeing her from the nanosentinel infection, makes their relationship super weird.

Or the writer is just teasing things with Rachel and Betsy to drum up interest for the series, since it's not a headliner book...

[Cerridwen]

Also Betsy was flirting with Scott before so I'm not too keen on where this is going.

Didn't they end up putting the blame for the Psylocke/Cyclops flirtation on the Kwannon part of her psyche giving her dark impulses? Agree on the Nightcrawler "ick!" factor. If only his AU daughter Talia Josephine (Nocturne) were still hanging around the 616...

Never thought about it but Rachel and Nocturne would make a good pairing indeed. Cute.

Yes, essentially they were trying to say that Revanche's proximity to Betsy was having her act of moreso than usual. But really Betsy was just trying to get some from anyone lol.

Maybe before but it would be just weird now after the whole Kurt thing.

Oh yes, definitely. That pairing made things uncomfortable. Kurt was her “uncle” in her timeline... that relationship wasn’t a good idea.

I know that's supposed to be Betsy but that top figure really is giving me Storm vibez. And I'm here for armor Ray.

I need a full design sheet of this costume❤️ It seems like a mix of dress and armor, a bit like Saber:

But more slender.

I wish she had her old school braid. I think it would be perfect for an armored look.

Seriously, this is where her rattail needs to come back

[Starchilde]

This one shows it a little clearer, it has some gold trim/embroidery (loving it). I really hope Bob Quinn releases some design sheets like Dauterman, so far I think she looks fantastic and I’m very glad she is not using the X-Factor uniform anymore lol I never really liked it.

Praying for the comeback of the rat tail, I’ll never lose hope.

I dig the armor, makes her look very handsome. It's missing spikes though. Rachel should always be covered in spikes.

Couldn't agree more. I'll always LOVE the spikes (XD)
