We Are The X-Men: Psylocke & Spider-Man

Marvel.com. X-Men Editor Nick Lowe: "Psylocke is a psychic ninja who can cut your mind in half with her psi-sword seconds before she cuts your body in half with a katana. You do not want to mess with her.

"The friendly neighborhood Spider-Man is picking up a new neighborhood: San Fancisco. Will the hero who gets no respect joins the species that gets no respect?"

Find out more during Marvel's X-Men panel at the inaugural C2E2 expo on Sunday, April 18.at 2:45pm.

Spider-Man and Psylocke? Talk about a really odd pairing...

My first wish would be to see her beating him down, but since that won't happen, I hope she gets a nice characterization. It's great to see her featured in another comic book, anyway, even if it's most likely just an one-shot (but who knows, it might be a mini series...)!

really surprising but not in the best way, Spider-Man an x-man? isn't he an avenger anymore? Why does Psylocke stay in America while her true family live in Europe? Her life and her motivations seem so empty, she deserves more than being a good soldier for the x-men, indeed she is one of the eldest among the leaders...
Is Paco Medina drawing this?

@FSaker - Hi. I actually like this idea. I'd like to see how deeply (if at all) Betsy and Spidey connect. I will get this whenever it is available. Betsy did fight alongside an alternate version of Spiderman when she was an Exile. This book has a nice 90's feel to it.

Best Regards,
centurion

@Francis - Thanks. I was hoping that X-Men Forever would have paid nice homage to the early 90's era, but find that the book falls short with character development and has an often convoluted plot. I also miss Psylocke and many of the other notable characters from the 90's era that are nowhere to be seen in Forever...
