Betsy Braddock: The Focused Totality of Appreciation 2024

[From The Shadows]

I wouldn't have pegged Betsy as a Taurus, but I guess it does make sense. Definitely so for Brian.

Didn't Moore mention she was a Taurus actually as her birthdate was revealed in Captain Britain?

The page is right there, I'm not denying the fact. I just wouldn't have thought of her as a Taurus, just by my own estimations. Though this made me remember the Zodiac signs thread from years ago, and it looks like you and I discussed this back then! I guess I forgot she was a Taurus!

Quite alright. I really didn't know what to think when Betsy was revealed as a Taurus. Probably because different writers bring something different to the table. So, acting like a certain sign it can be hard to peg if you aren't sticking to the same characterization as previous writers. Especially these days.

Head canon: Mutants stay in their prime longer then regular humans.

I thought it was canonized somewhere in early Krakoa?
Or was it just the longer lifespan

Oh well. Headcanon for me as well.
Still. You shouldn't still be rocking that body when you're 6 years younger than my mom, Betsy. It's criminal! Look and act like a proper old lady!

I don't take these kinds of dates to heart, though. It's a sliding timeline. I always interpreted Betsy as being slightly older than the O5. Beast even commented on liking her modeling career being.... inspiring to him as a youth in Claremont's X-Treme X-Men.

That's... interesting.
Now that I ponder about it, early Betsy was drawn like a 30yrs old lady, both as face and way she dressed/did her hair. And she definitely looked older than how Jean (or Lorna or Ororo) were drawn at the time. that first purple hairdo of heirs definitely wasn't something for a 25/26 girl.

Considering Brian was in college with Peter Parker, him and Betsy can't be much older than the O5. Although Peter seems to be aging backwards these days.

I like this one. The fit of the costume makes a difference.

I guess this confirms the Unlimited arc has been extended.

Assuming that the comment is referring to that image....
The Rachel looks like its based on Podcaster DanicaXIX/ComicBook Girl 19 and the Betsy bears a vague likeness to Kate Beckinsale...

we will be FAST
we will be GLOBAL
we will be RUTHLESS
we will be CONTENTIOUS
we will LIE
we will BETRAY
we will ROLL THAT COASTER as hard as we can.

Because we are about winning, about solving the problem for good, not slapping a bandaid on it.

and we will, most definitely, be STRANGE.

My body is tingling.
