Betsy Braddock: The Focused Totality of Appreciation 2024

I hope they take a note from J. D. White's latest take on the absurd mantle swap and reconnect her to her Psylocke days. Painting the Siege Perilous makeover as an offence that should never have happened in the first place has ravaged the character.

Just remembered that Dead X-Men #3 comes out early this month, next Wednesday! We also tonight's Unlimited.

It is offensive and she doesn’t have to be Asian to be Psylocke when Elektra and Kitty are allowed to keep their ninja skills.

^Thank you, as always. I was talking about the character development, which *is* tied to the makeover, but evidently not dependent on it. Her writing in X-Men Unlimited is somewhat of a step in the right direction, because it's bringing her back to her pragmatic "X-Force" days, but we still need to suffer a setting in which she, a mutant, has to care about what an official government agency thinks of her, because everything Psylocke-related is now a red flag.

Sweet.

[Uncanny X-Man]

Sweet.

I love that the good Captain is on another cover. I reckon the focus might shift to Gambit and Feint going forward but hopefully Betts will still get some fun interactions with the X-Corps crew.

Send positive vibes out to the universe and manifest us getting news about Betsy next week at SXSW. She will be in the new era and she will have a good role. With a good writer and a good artist. We must say this aloud.

Hear our prayers!

Sidenote: MacKay listed as one of the panelists is very interesting. I've enjoyed his Avengers.

She will have a great role with some amazing creators writing and drawing her! I'm sending pink butterflies all around to manifest this.

Betsy fan Alan Hoxor:

This time i tried to combine both JSwayArt's design with the classic Outback look of Betsy!

[Maitogai]

JB, that’s perfect! It’s nostalgia adjacent, which seems to be what they’re aiming for in FTA. It’s completely separated from Kwannon’s look. And it’s armor-based which would still align with her CB era of costumes if that’s what they’re still going for with Betsy.

Getting Betsy in that costume in the comics would be a dream.

[CGAR]

No more face masks. We need to see her giving face and hair.

Love it, but closer to the classic colors of the original would look best!

Looks a little to bulky. Streamline the armor more.

I'm not a artist...so take my opinion with a grain of salt.

I think it might be an impression because the pasted head is a bit out of proportion (too little).
