Happy New Year to Betsy and her fans !

Happy New Year my fellow Betsy fanatics!

Let’s hope she’s better wtitten this year. And hopefully looking as fabulous as these arts.

This year also may give us a totally different direction for our girl as the X-Men lines gets a new makeover. Hoping for the best ��

We know for sure that Betsy will be in X-Men Unlimited on February 5th with #125 but I'm really hoping #124 with Shatterstar on the cover is part of that story as well. Making her next appearance at the end of this month.

Happy New Year to Betsy and all of her fans! I truly hope the x office have decent plans in mind for her in 2024!

[CGAR]

I'm hoping that the Unlimited X-Men and Dead X-Men appearance lead to a big return in HotFoX or RotPoX BUT if her and Rachel come back in X-Men Forever that would be cool as well.

[Uncanny X-Man]

I was watching What If? season 2 yesterday and noted how Captain Carter basically took over the whole show... she's not exactly Captain Britain but I guess the writers were able to show how much you can do and how many different stories you can tell even with the patriotic, flag-wearing angle... and Peggy doesn't even have the magical/Otherworld add-ons in addition to the spy stuff Betsy has going on for her.

I’ll always love that panel of her turning her hair purple as she rebuilt her body.

Was it the famous Uncanny X-Men 213 by Claremont and Davis that the butterfly first appeared? I think an issue or two before that her signature had a Dazzler-esque vibe when she was communicating with Logan.

I think that's correct. I thought it might have been issue #223 but that would have been odd because the artist was Kerry Gammil filling in...
