Who do you like more: Karma or Moonstar?

[BroHomo]

I voted Karma, just cause I thought she was so mysterious, getting all obese, getting skinny all warriorfied in the desert while keeping her her IMMACULATE, her bro and sis and the kooky powers they have/will have/potentially will have?

Not sure if anyone else read this or will admit to it but in the New Mutants Truth or Dare miniseries Xavier (i think) reported that Karma's power rivals his own. Anyone else remember the scene more clearly or have a scan?
*crickets*

"She will throw it right back at you"

I see what you did there

Psylocke's powers have always been to appropriate

Ha ha YAS! this thread was worth the visit just for these two comments

Karma, on the other hand, has persisted but nobody knows what to do with her ("let's make her gay!"

Karma's BEEEEEN gay, girl Since the first Lilith Fair.

I love moonstar and Karma but Karma is usually shelved to watch or find her mutant younger siblings who are MIA for years now

Lord....where the hell are those damn kids? It's a shame how Minority x-kids never get to grow up. Which is weird since my first intro to Karma and the New Mutants was the GIANT SIZED issue where they went to MojoWorld and the twins were turned into Template....Gah I thought they were all so bad ass. As a kid I didn't get Karma's powers I thought she used the good or bad "Karma" of the person she's fighting against to boost her own physical...mental...etc power. Which I don't think is a bad Idea for them to develop for her.

I go for it Although, I'm sure the detractors would scoff at the notion because (much like Ororo and T'Challa both being of African decent) they're both Native (Cheyenne) Americans.

uh that's not why people scoffed.

I like Karma - it's just her shame her powers never work. Everyone from A lister villains to the drunk old tramp that lives under the bus shelter seems to have psychic defences that stops her powers from working on them.

lol I think I have some psychic defenses at this point Ive read so many comics, all ya gotta do is look real menacing.

I gotta choose? I say they fight it out in some jello.

I'd rather them referee a 3 way fight between Sam, Bobby and Doug in whipped cream.

He's the one who drew her first in MTU 100, thus came up with the power signature.

Believe it or not...I never achieved to read that issue.

Scans from Karma's 1st appearance in Marvel Team Up drawn by Frank Miller are posted on her Appreciation thread:

Why, THANKS! And many thanks to 616MarvelYear is LeapYear! I've been posting in that thread, but I obviously didn't go to its first page.

Karma needs her powers heighten. She should be able to control multiple people with ease and have strong telepathy.
I wouldn't choose between the two...like them both.

She's controlled multiple people before; during the road trip in 90s X-force, she controlled a whole crowd. If she was an actual telepath, wouldn't that just eliminate the need for her to have her actual power since most telepaths can control people?

I think her most spectacular intervention was during Necrosha (TNM #6), when she controlled all her teammates and used them as 'zombies' to avoid Cypher 'reading' their body language.

Karma's hairstyle makes her boring. Like Moira lol

OMG. . .lol

I love Moira's bob cut. It's her distinguishing mark . Never change it!

Shan have had a few hairstyles, none of them particularly beautiful (ahem). Long hair was good, but I'm more than a bit sick & tired of Vidal Sassoon manes: I'd better go for a short stylish cut such as Wilshire's or Bobillo's (BTW, I like Wilshire/Sienkiewicz SO MUCH!).

Believe it or not...I never achieved to read that issue.

It's by Claremont, it's her very first appearance and it's decent. It's not like the annuals or Bizarre Adventures where it's better off keeping those in your imagination.

After this she was living at Utopia without them now I'm worried Marvel Redshirt Tmist them or just write the out of post Secret wars new U.

She is a actual telepathic...but her powers are strongest with possession.

[STORM1977]

I wish some writer strip Psylocke of Dani's (former) ability to make telepathic images manifest as psionic energy--



--becoming tangible entities of solid psionic force.

This would be a cool idea. She needs to get her powers back.
