Oh my! Why she's wearing heels? This kind of stuff makes me sad. But is good that Betts is having some visibility and love.

Poor Betsy was only remembered for A+X after 17 issues (while Beast and Black Widow have each been in three issues), and she needs to be paired up with Spider-Man and to wear the blue bathing suit (and with high heels). Yeah, I guess I'll pass this book.

The new X-Force book looks promising, and I'm very curious to see what Wood is planning for X-Men. I wonder if Arkea will be part of Lady Deathstrike's Sisterhood (even though Deathstrike probably wouldn't like working with someone who could just possess her and erase her essence anytime).

Ugh, high heeled ninja. Spare me.

Still, I'm interested in the story.

The blue suit is iconic, like it or not. The current fatigues and orange gloves look isn't going to do anything to make it fade. I like that they are adding things to her back-story like this, they are clearly making an effort to focus on the character unlike her near disappearance in the 'aughts.
