I am sorry for X-force..... I really wanted to see the black swan side of Psylocke being developed and see her taking something good out of all this experience...

It's really sad to see X-Force ending. Although at least Spurrier is already taking care with loose ends, with Volga and the Yellow Eye organization already brought down by the team, Marrow getting her revenge and all.

I wonder what will happen to most of these characters. Psylocke definitely survives, and I guess Doctor Nemesis and Domino will also be alive and without any major change to them. But the fates of pretty much everyone else (considering not only whether they die or survive, but also how their bodies and minds will be affected) is uncertain - and that includes Fantomex: will he die? Will he remain as a villain? Will he be redeemed by the final issue somehow?

Anyway, with X-Force and Nightcrawler's solo book being canceled by March, I hope at least Adjectiveless X-Men will succeed somehow. If it gets canceled as well, Psylocke will be left without any X-book to be featured in (at least until Secret Wars causes any significant changes in Marvel's books).

Off topic, but I recall Remender saying psylocke, and a few others including nightcrawler, would play roles in Axis. So far, nothing. Red herring?

Yeah, that was quite disappointing. Nightcrawler at least had some interaction with Mystique, when he and Rogue tried to kill her after the "Inversion", but Betsy was only shown in a panel in issue #1, one in issue #3 (both with no lines) and that was it. It almost feels like Marvel decided to replace her with Teen Jean (although Teen Jean's participation in AXIS isn't much bigger than Psylocke's...).
