“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.

Betsy really has done everything, hasn't she? Charter pilot, top model, secret agent, X-Man, temporary Captain Britain... and a singer. Fortunately for Dazzler, it seems that it didn't take long for Betsy to move on from the singing career.
I like the art in these pages, but I must confess: Warren was never one of my favorite choices to be Betsy's love interest. As much as people hate Fantomex, I think his romance with Psylocke was much more captivating (in Remender's book; Humphries kinda ruined it). Her fiance Tom (from Alan Moore's Captain Britain run; I forgot his last name) was also more interesting. Such a shame that he had to die.
Oh well, still a better choice than Thunderbird III (you know, the guy who was dating her when Vargas killed her, then found another girlfriend few days after she was buried).
