At least not in these teasers, occasionally they do arrange them specifically. <br /><br />Also, Its been said that the X-Men title is going to be the Marvel Universe crossover/team-up friendly book, so I feel like they put these random characters on the cover because its going to be the most crowded title and have a lot of characters running around.

Glad she'll be appearing in two X-books. Though I get the feeling she won't be touched on too much in X-Men, just a few lines here and there, but nothing in depth. <br /><br />Also wouldn't put too much stock into what these teaser cover-arts reveal to us. Every artist incorporates different aspects of a character differently and both Psylockes appear to have TK katanas, which we all know she does NOT use under Remender's writing. Just something the artist did to say to the viewer, "Hey, I'm a badass." And that's fine, cause she totally is a badass. <br /><br />And I agree, Psylocke makes the perfect spy being a telepath. Just like she did when she "infiltrated" Utopia and masked her presence from some of the greatest telepaths in the world. <br /><br />Plus, she could always switch teams, as I believe it's been said some will later on.Vigmedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03039038649323608024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596031626753539266.post-69888164972445817842011-09-06T19:29:51.557-03:002011-09-06T19:29:51.557-03:00Psylocke is on two teams and I'm not amused, w...Psylocke is on two teams and I'm not amused, who'd have thought? See, Remender is doing an AMAZING job with her on Unc. X-Force and I don't trust Gischler capability to keep her characterization on the same level. So I predict lots of mischaracterization moments for our favorite X-Woman in the following months.<br /><br />As for the black hair, I think that when Claremont/Davis brought her back the colorist already started to colour her hair in a darker shade of purple, and this derived in this black weave we're seeing nowadays (and I kind of dig it)captainfurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16670507464525794046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596031626753539266.post-26583128184113265822011-09-06T19:09:03.946-03:002011-09-06T19:09:03.946-03:00I know its extremely unlikely but maybe the Psyloc...I know its extremely unlikely but maybe the Psylocke on the Uncanny X-Force Cover is the AOA Psylocke and maybe Nightcrawler isn't the only AOA member to join Uncanny X-force! <br /><br />But I highly doubt it but it wouldn't be the first time that an x-men team had two Psylocke's (Revanche and Besty were on the same x-men team for awhile before they killed Revanche off with the Legacy virus)Zephyrzonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06014660124604077408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5596031626753539266.post-6307221750485330512011-09-06T17:30:57.782-03:002011-09-06T17:30:57.782-03:00CmX is right.

And I bet there's more members to X-Men than what's in this teaser, I doubt they'll have a team have only one male member on it.

Even before the two of them rejoined the X-Men, they did get along well (not friends, but not enemies either).<br /><br />Plus, Jubilee is a grown woman now (or at least she should be; Monet and Husk stopped being teenagers a long time ago), so I doubt she holds any grudge against Psylocke. If we remember, Jubes also didn't like Storm when she joined the X-Men; in fact, the only person she liked was Wolverine himself (Prof. X also got some nasty comments from Jubilee)...<br /><br />What really makes me curious is how Gischler will work this team. I can see Storm, Psylocke and Jubilee working together with no problem, but Warpath has barely interacted with either of them.
