Betsy Braddock: Psylocke Appreciation 2018

[Izanami]

Lmao Only with Logan did the X-Men comics only start in the 90's when he began reading comics and everything else is a lie.

You need to start listening to interviews about what the plans were had Claremont and other writers/artist not left Marvel in the '90s. Did you forget the crash and bankruptcy? The Twelve may have been a better read not to mention other forgotten threads like Betsy returning to her British body sooner than 2018. Some of his ideas transfered over to X-Men Forever which for me was a meh read. In that timeline Warren stayed with Charlotte same with Simonson's X-Factor Forever where he wanted to be a father to Timmy.

Here are some interviews for you to start on how things were at that time and how they could of developed.

I wouldn't care

You know Psylocke got that good-good!

Dammit Tazirai, now I can't decide between Jean and Storm or Jean with Betsy.

[Hypestyle]

I honestly wouldn't be opposed to that route. They have good chemistry together and its a way better relationship than Jean x Cyclops or Jean x Wolverine.

so who would be a competent writer to follow up on this notion?

[LoganAlpha30X33]

I know full well that the X-Men existed before the 90's, and never once said that anything else was a lie Iz...that's a lie that you made up...

Hmmm that is a good one...

It's 2018. Why choose? They're all friends.

As for Captain Britain's new look, he certainly has gone from yuppie to boy next door (Cap Brit & MI-13) to hipster daddy. I like his new hair cut, maybe the beard can be a little shorter though. All in all I approve.

I'm waiting for a Betsy/Warren confrontation. She should get a good smack in like the one she gave Jamie during the Foursaken story arc. I know he's being controlled, but still.

I hope next week's cover isn't only a tease and we actually have good scenes between the two. My bet is she'll be the one who free him from the mind control, seeing how snapping her crazy ex's out of it became her speciality.

[LoganAlpha30X33]

Probably but thankfully there's no life seed or whatever sitting around waiting for her to stab him with it again, just wonder then if he'll have remembered anything since he left in the middle of the fight when Nate took control...

Yeah, her worry for Warren really sets her up for a big confrontation, and I hope it pays off well.

Also, as new in this thread, what's the general feel regarding Brian's Instagram Daddy look? I kinda dig it, though I get how people could think the manbun AND the beard would be a tad too much.

Very true!!

Yeah, after the slap he should be knocked to his senses.

Warren: "Oh my god. Betsy..."
Betsy: "Yeah. Again Warren? Really?
*starts hitting Warren with each word she takes*
Betsy: "Don't you ever do that again!"
Warren: "Ok Betsy!! Stop! Calm down!"
Betsy: "I will calm down when you stop getting bloody controlled every month Warren!!!"

I love that Brian has a beard - I would prefer his hair to be shorter though on top

but he is definitely hotter this way

Someone needs to put this in a book, stat. LOL!

And yeah, PsychicScion, I remember reading the Gold Annual (was it that?) with the Excalibur crew and being... pleasantly surprised by that new look. I do know that hipster trends get lots of flack everywhere, so I figured this would a good place to ask. Good to know I'm not alone, heh

[CRaymond]

I know it's heresy, but the frequency some of Xavier's students are mind-controlled and easily directed to fight on another's behalf suggests some mental conditioning.

[Tazirai]

Very true!!

In his defense, Betsy gets Mind Controlled like every other day... Lol.

Mind, body and soul.
