“For so long, my life has been out of control. Chaos and serendipity, wrapped in insanity. I have suffered, I have lost. Not just my life, but my very soul, my self. But no more. Now I know who I am.” – Elizabeth ‘Betsy’ Braddock, daughter of Otherworld, mutant, telepath, telekinetic, defender of the realm and, above all, X-Man.

This past arc it finally feels like the book is getting somewhere & now it may be canceled.
I missed Betsy's narration. With the bad art and the other points of view, it was starting to feel like a mess to me, but at least she's objective even when her feelings are in the way so that helps me understand. I'm so scarred for the book though. It's the only good thing she's in lately (the adjectiveless' writing is going on a downhill along with the art and the Summers-centred story and I haven't got time to pick up others in /hope/ that she will show up). I see people doing campaigns for Storm and X-Factor, why not one for X-Force?
I guess there isn't a campaign for X-Force because its cancellation wasn't officially announced yet. But I agree, people should definitely do a campaign to convince Marvel to keep this book going, and I'm not even saying this because of Psylocke: it is really too good to be cancelled so soon. Unfortunately it seems that most readers will just ignore any book that doesn't feature the main X-Men and/or have a superstar writer behind it, even if its plot is much better than the ones in the "main" X-books...
