Adam: Hey folks exciting news for X-men97 fans. Marvel has released images of the multiple X-men teams that will appear in the upcoming season. Psylocke has officially joined X-Force, tho we don't know if this version is intended to be Betsy or Kwannon: https://nexuspointnews.com/x-men-97-season-2-unveils-new-characters-costumes-and-teams/
It’s Kwannon. It was revealed a while back on an official trading card.
I guess since adaptions of Psylocke are always shallow and just show the character being cool that Kwannon would be the easier route as Betsy has history to dig through.
I heard about the official card too, but not that it tied to X-Men 97.
I was actually thinking with them doing this new comic with "Asian Betsy" suddenly out of nowhere, and Betsy kinda being exposed more in these new comics that it could be Betsy tbh.
Maybe I missed it, but I haven't seen anything officially saying it was one or the other in the cartoon series yet.
Adam: The card does indeed come from an X-men97 set and says that Psylocke's real name is Kwannon and that she was born in Tokyo. The cards are just repackaged concept art so they don't seem very "official" to me. It's never been said on the show (including the 90s episodes) who exactly she is. I do agree with you guys that's it more likely they'll go with Kwannon if they broach it at all. Regardless, I'm excited to see either character!
Nice. I think Betsy looks the best on this particular cover as well.
ReplyDeleteThis cover is gorgeous. Everyone looks great, Elizabeth and Ororo look especially fierce.
ReplyDeleteNo shade to Rogue or Alison but damn Betsy and Ororo look incredible
ReplyDeletePart of me thinks that the artist was definitely shading Alison and Anna Marie. 👀

It’s Kwannon, but they’re keeping the hair purple. Damn. They don’t even try. 😆
DeleteAre we sure it's Kwannon?
