AvX: Vs #5 Art

AvX: Vs #5 Spoilers

Spoilers: The issue starts with Hawkeye searching the sky for Angel. Psylocke warns Angel telepathically that Hawkeye's mind is cloaked and hidden from her. Hawkeye spots Angel and shoots arrows at him, which Angel easily dodges in the air. After fighting for a bit, with neither at an advantage, Psylocke catches up with Angel. Hawkeye asks about Psylocke, and comments that she's 'cute'. Hawkeye threatens to fire an arrow into Psylocke's head, and not to gamble whether which is faster. Psylocke's telepathy or Hawkeye's arrow. Warren backs off for Psylocke's safety, and Hawkeye decieves him by shooting him point blank with an arrow, and flees. Psylocke runs to his aid. Later on Utopia, Angel recovers and fills in Emma Frost with what happened. Emma Frost simply comments, "to be continued, Clint Barton.."

AvX: VS #4 Spoilers

Spoilers (from Username Taken): Daredevil and Psylocket trade blows, stalemating each other. Psylocke realizes she can't take him hand to hand, so she switches to telepathy. The telepathic attack causes a massive feedback to Betsy because of Daredevil's enhanced senses. They resume trading blows. Matt retreats to the shadows while Betsy hunts after him. Daredevil kicks her off a ledge but realizes she's falling to her doom. He jumps down, catches her and swings her through a window. Psylocke then kicks him in the chest as she was only pretending to fall to draw him out. She pins him down and prepares to Psi-dagger him. Matt reasons with her and makes her realize that the X-men will round up the Avengers and leave them on an Island of their own. Daredevil asks if that's what she really wants. They both stop fighting and DD swings away. Final verdict: Draw.

Spoilers: Cyclops, Emma, Magik, Colossus and Namor go to the moon where both Hope and the Avengers are. Meanwhile, Psylocke, Magneto and Storm regret they couldn't be there as well. They suggest using Pixie to reach the Moon, but Storm says she escaped the Avengers Academy along with the other kids and don't know where they are. The kids come back to Utopia as Hope left them a note telling them to look for Unit. Back to the X-Men, Storm reveals her husband knocked her out. Psylocke says the Red Hulk broke her arm. They all contemplate the fact that the Gold side's X-Men joined Cyclops and that only Wolverine, Quicksilver and Beast turned against them. In Utopia, Unit explains to the kids that Wanda's spell of "No more mutants" angered the Phoenix and that Hope and her five acolytes were needed to calm it. The kids asks Unit why he didn't tell Hope she needed her Lights to tame the Phoenix, to what Unit replies that he wanted to see what would happen if Hope couldn't control the Phoenix. Magneto, Psylocke and Storm debate about ways to reach the Moon. They think of Danger, but they don't know her whereabouts.

Psylocke in Avengers vs. X-Men #2

I compiled every panel Psylocke was from Avengers vs. X-Men #2, which includes a brawl with Spider-Woman. Psylocke appears wielding her telekinetic (?) katana throughout the issue. Iron Man has built some anti-telepathy tech which he used against Emma Frost. Not sure if the same applies to every telepath in Utopia or if it was just used on Emma.
