I don't know why the artist drew her with that stupid hairstyle. Psylocke stopped wearring that hairstyle (which Davis made look way prettier than this rendition) before the X-Men died in Dallas, and had a cool, longer layered 'do. http://bullyscomics.blogspot.com/2013/11/psylocke-psaturday-psunday-20-x-men-you.html?m=1

Her armor outfit was very cool (although I never understood why the "frail" Psylocke needs an armor when Jean Grey was just as frail and never needed one), and the hood, cape and mask made her look mysterious and even dangerous.
But I don't like this pink outfit she wore before the armored outfit, it looks too girlish. Alongside with this hairstyle, she looks like one of the princesses in She-Ra's Great Rebellion rather than an X-Man.
I wonder if they will let the rev version stick around after this arc is over? It would be a way of getting the original body back into the fray but it would also be very confusing to have two Psylocke's around.
Sorry for changing the subject once again, but when a video of Psylocke in LEGO Marvel Super Heroes was posted in this website, some of you asked what were her powers in it.
Well, I unlocked her yesterday. LEGO Psylocke has a telekinetic forcefield and she can move objects and LEGO pieces that can only be moved with telekinesis. She is also constantly with her TK-sword, although it isn't treated as a power (I should test if she can activate Wolverine's Claw Switches with it, but I don't think she can).
Unfortunately, she does NOT have telepathy; only Jean, Professor X and Emma have this power. Although this power can only be used whenever a person has a "?" icon above his/her head, to make him/her execute a task that your own characters can't do (usually because there's a wall or fire blocking them). She also can't hover with her telekinesis, unlike Jean (although she can perform a double jump and reach slightly higher places, which Jean can't).
So, well, she doesn't have all her powers. But at least she's in the game, unlike many other famous heroes (Rogue, Nightcrawler, Kitty, Vision, Scarlet Witch, Quicksilver, Wonder Man...). And her animations are great, especially when fighting; her animations combine ninja acrobacies with her telekinesis.
Sorry again for changing the subject; I just thought (and hope) some of you could be interested by this information.
Oh, I forgot to mention: there are VERY FEW cases in the game where there is a LEGO person with a "?" icon above his/her head, so the telepathy/mind control power is seldom used in the game.
I love this version also. I do hope the Revenant gets to live after this arc. Even if she is her own women. Would be nice to have this old school version running around. I'd follow that book. Her armoured look is by far my favorite look for her. I love the clash of Magenta and purple. The pink outfit was good for it's time, late 80's and Psylocke wasn't exactly an ass kicker then. But it made my stomach get the butterflies when I saw it. My friend Gillian, aka Gillykins does one of the best Oldschool Psylockes out there. Just Google it, and check it out. She pulls it off amazingly.

Aww...I loved early Psylocke. Even though I was like five I still thought she was awesome. Am I the only one who loved her armoured look?
@Brian
You are not the only one. Her Armour outfit with that hood and cape was everything. I loved the whole mysterious look she had.
I would've changed the pink bits to black, but otherwise it was a great look that made perfect sense for her at that time.

I love the original Psylocke, but "one of the princesses in She-Ra's Great Rebellion" made me LMAOOL!
