    Did the Hand change her to be Asian when she did that mind transfer? It's never really addressed, is it? Don't get me wrong, I love it when a white British chick becomes this smokin' hot manga girl, but it really makes no sense.

    The Hand traded Elizabeth Braddock's mind with their top assassin, Revanche... an Asian woman.

    And isn't her sword and daggers made of psionic energy, not telekinetic? And I didn't know she's rich...

    Betsy Braddock was a hugely successful fashion model -- which would make her rich -- and the Braddocks were rich to begin with. Braddock manor is where her brother, Captain Britain lives. their parents, if I'm not mistaken, were Lord and Lady Braddock.

    I think they inherited the money since their elder brother, Jaime, is friggin' nuts. I think that's what they put on his psyche exam.

    Her swords are made of telekinetic energy NOW, since she no longer has access to her telepathy, which apparently just GAVE her telekinesis. Cause that's what happens. If I'm not mistaken, she may still be telepathic, but can't use it since she's trapped the Shadow King inside her, and that would let him out.

    Man, she IS a confusing character. I don't even want to get into how she used to have no eyes.

    Awesome. My first introduction to Betsy Bradock was that story line where Wolverine and Sabretooth were kicking ass at the Xavier Mansion. That was before she was when she was a hot English chick and not a hot Asian chick.

    I think it was in these issues:

    I dont know why killed her, it seems that lately the marvel writters had been having this need o kill characters just for he sake of doing it for laer on reviving them on silly way.


    Why couldnt they just keep her as she was?, this asian look and their new wierd powers just make the things more complicated, I tought the comics where to enjoy them and not to break your head trying to understand them.

    Y know wath I would do? I would get rid of the asian one and then bring the normal original one back, how? dont ask me I belive the marvel writters are creative enogh to fix this.

    Essential reading:
    Uncanny X-Men 256-258 (this is where Betsy switched into the asian body of Kwannon)
    X-Men 20-32 (Kwannon shows up in the mansion in Betsy's body... confusion ensues... the story is explained... Kwannon commits suicide)

    I like Psylocke in her asian form ... it's become her trademark now

    :/ and recently she's gone back to her british body, which upsets me because we'll never see the asian beauty again.

    For the love of God... not everyone has read the recent issues yet!  Was it worth bumping a thread just to post some spoilers?!  If you wanted to discuss it then you could have made a new thread and put (SPOILERS) at the end of the subject line.

    True, true.  Sorry for ranting.  I'm not usually OCD about spoilers, but that's pretty major... Hell, it still pisses me off.
