Grampá and Granov making covers with Psylocke... could we have asked for anything better?? (BTW, Grampá is Brazilian, isn't he?)

Really, I may not like every decision taken by Alonso, but we can't deny that since he made Fraction bring Betsy back to the X-Men, her situation has only gotten better and better! And it looks like 2012 will be even better for her than 2011 already was...

Both are absolutely lovely covers.

Francis said...

both arts are so good! have to admit i'm so eager to know Betsy's future role in X-men book, we already know Uncanny X-force is pure awesomeness let's hope for some good writing on Cyclops's side

Rahsaan said...

Hmmm... wouldn't it be a complete shocker if Rememder brought Cecelia Reyes onto X-Force? Before you guys laugh at me... just let me have my fanboy daydream, please. Granted, she did take a "First, do no harm" oath... but i think she'd be gold with him writing her. He seems to really get characters and is awesome at sardonic wit which Reyes has for days. And I think her being on an assassin's squad to further a dream and life she originally wanted no part of would be a goldmine of conflict. I'd be in hog heaven if she was one the new, surprise members! Too bad, she's not a trained fighter like the rest as that'd be key.

I'm still hoping she ends up on Wolvie's Gold side and that we finally see some more sparks between her and Iceman; reminiscent of Zero Tolerance interaction. I'd dig that more than what others seem to want. He and Kitty! (Nothing against Kitty as I've always loved her.)

amazing ... can't wait!

PsySpears said...

WOW LOVE these.Its so exciting to be a Betsy fan this last year or so,shes back to her A-list status.These covers are beautiful.Ive met Adi a couple of times,and his girlfriend is the BIGGEST psylocke fan,she loves her,so she always loves when he draws her. I have a personal sketch done of Psy too. :)

PsySpears said...

And i want to see cecilia somwhere Rahsaan,and i do agree,X-force could be a good place BUT i am enjoying betsy being the only girl on the "boys" team.i think its increased her cred with the butch Wolvie/Deadpool/Punisher type fans.Shes kinda the girl charater that it really is cool to like,because shes sexy AND a tough badass

Rahsaan said...

True, Psy! Indeed. However, i don't think she'll be the only gal with the boys for long based on Remender's assertion that we have some new enlistees shortly. I'd love for Cecilia to be one of them... and for her to finally get a code name... even if it's something like "Doc" which everyone calls her anyhow.

Alexander said...

Looking forward to Warpath being used again. At first I was worried about the increasing X-force cast, but then again the last volume had a pretty nice size cast & everyone was able to have their moment.

One thing I've been wondering, I haven't followed most of Remender's interviews & I know every writer has characters they like & don't: Does anyone know why he hates Domino? I felt she finally got some decent characterization finally in the last X-force.

FSaker said...

The X-Force may not be the best place for Cecilia Reyes (remember how traumatized she was when she killed a NEO to protect Nightcrawler?).

That said, Cecilia is great and she definitely deserves to be a central character in a book. Since Gischler's X-Men book already has a girls team (plus Warpath), she could be there as the team's doctor (and also a hero when needed)!

As for X-Force, I don't think Betsy will keep being the only woman in the team (technically, she isn't already, as the team has E.V.A., but she hasn't appeared in her female humanoid form so far). In fact, she may not even be in the team after some issues (she's playing for both sides post-Schism, so she may end up giving up X-Force in favor of Scott after a while). Anyway, even though I despise her, Boom-Boom could be a good fit for X-Force, as Cable already trained her to be a tough and merciless soldier. X-23 and Domino would be, too, but I think Marjorie Liu plans to keep Laura away from X-Force, and Remender doesn't like Domino...

Psylocke perfectly fits X-force at the moment...she's sort of the moral boundary linking the team to a more human behaviour... protecting kid-Apocalypse, jumping down E.V.A. not to give up on Warren,the fear of her Brothers' reaction...if we exclude the Reavers issue she's been the most realistic face for the team...Domino and X-23 would not bring such tridimensional characterization to this comic book (plus they already got their spotlight)....
And Cecilia Reyes would be just awesome but as for her personality i don't think she'd actually like to join a killcrew

Matt L said...

Mystique could be a good female addition to the team. She of course comes with some problems but Uncanny X-Force is inherently problematic. I'm also no totally for villains becoming team members, but her past with the X-Men is so complicated it could work.

Matt L said...

I also think Mercury could be a really cool addition. I'm sure she'd have some more objections, but that could be fun to explore, plus her power makes her pretty deadly.

PsySpears said...

OMG Vamp Jubilee would be great in X-Force! never thought of it till now.The wolvie/jubilee/psylocke relationship was alway fun to read.and now with her being buffied up it would be a really interesting to see how different they treat her.she isnt a child anymore shes a killer.

Rahsaan said...

Matt,
Mercury would be great. Her or Prodigy or Hellion. We all know Hellion has no problem with slaying. Especially since what the sentinels did to him, and what he did to Karima! And his attitude shift might be good drama. Mercury's power would be an awesome asset. And Prodigy's accumulated knowledge would be invaluable! (Hope Wanda gives him his power back, so he can continue to absorb new knowledge).

I just had a thought. Maybe Remender could throw Cypher on. Just to throw a wrench in Fantomex's designs on Psylocke. LOL! If Remender actually acknowledged that old attraction of hers I'd be in love with him. That's some real Psylocke fanboy shit!

JD said...

I would love Cypher on the team!! haha, at least for an issue.

I personally think if another female came on board, I'd like Copycat. She is one of the few Weapon X people not to be brought back to life. Way better to use her instead of re-using Mystique IMO.

Alexander said...

Mystique would be cool but she has a history. You know sooner or later she's going to shoot someone or more on the team. It's what she does.

I like the idea of Copycat or another shapshifter. That would give Remender something new to dupe people with instead of Fantomex's power. Or maybe a forgotten or d-list character he could pump up. Maybe Outlaw? She'd also tie in with Deadpool, like Copycat.

Rahsaan said...

Vanessa Carlysle would be awesome. I liked her a lot once she was not posing as Neena. Isn't she dead though?

JD said...

Yes Copycat is dead, but it was so long ago, one of the few Weapon X people not to be brought back from the dead lol.
