We always have threads about how shitty Psylocke is, so let's turn that around.

How do we fix Psylocke, /co/?

Get her a rogue's gallery

And I don't mean a gallery of Rogue, but villains who have some personal relationship with her.

Also, have her date Spidey. Spidey boosts everyone's numbers
>>
>>84230759
Stop pairing her with shit characters.
Stop having her going I'M WEAPON, I CAN'T FEEL every third panel
>>
>>84230779
>I'M WEAPON, I CAN'T FEEL

"I'm in someone else's body, I can't feel comfortable in her own skin" would be better

Fun fact: That's exactly why everyone got interested in Carol before she become Captain.

You are the first OP to make a 'I hate Psylocke' thread that actually spelled her name right, congratulations!

As long as they don't go FOCUSED TOTALITY every panel. God, it was chore to read through her bubbles.

This. All you need is a writer who is interested in her enough to give her some really cool villains. Good conflict definitely helps garner interest in a character.

Get her out of an X-book for a while. Put her back in England with her brother. Have them take on Jim Jaspers or the Fury. Bring back Slaymaster. She's got a shitload of history before the X-Men. Explore that. Anyone but Claremont to write it. Alan Davis has to draw it. Hell, kill off Brian for a while, Betsy struggles with taking the mantle and honoring his memory after she has spent years being an X-Force killer/slut. I'm sure Marvel could get 12 issues out of that. Slap a huge X somewhere on the cover and it'd sell for a minute.
>>
>>84233487

Alan Davis drawn and written Psylocke mini would be great, he's one of few to do ninja Betsy well.
>>
>>84230759
If Psylocke is shitty, than the rest of marvel universe should not exist
>>
Emphasize her ninja skills, de-emphasize her telepathy. She reads like a discount Jean in Uncanny right now.

I don't think she's shitty. I actually like her a lot. She's a decent team filler.

See here's the thing. Not every character is going to be able to carry a book, nor should they. But on a team you can explore relationships, find uses for her powers and generally make her a lot of fun while throwing her a bone and given her primary focus every so often.

>Get her out of an X-book for a while

That would fix a lot of x characters
>>
>>84233306
Or just make her Asian since day one.

Either adopted or the result of obvious cucking.
>>
>>84236590

So basically she's Black Widow for X-Men?
>>
>>84236630
Not him, but I would say yes that's a decent comparison. Funny enough, Black Widow has her own ongoing which is more spy-focused then capeshit
>>
>How do we fix Psylocke, /co/?

Official porn book.
>>
>>84230759
She's not shitty at all, she's a main component to MSP. The assist allows for easy conversion and her DHC is fairly safe even if she gets snapped in

>>84236676

Yeah. It does help that Waid seems fairly invested in it. Her previous (also spy-oriented) books were extremely repetitive and boring, honestly. It's a tricky genre to master, especially in a setting where people basically read for the big flash superpower stuff.

Psylocke and Domino visit a hedonistic nudist orgy island in order to find and stop powerful anti mutant technology from being sold at auction.

also the seller has anti TK shields keeping his mind from being read so the only way to find him is for the girls to "mingle" and find info

Just let her be a fanservice character like X-23. That's what she was designed as, after all. That's what she's good for.
>>
>>84237659
>like X-23

Bad news anon. Marvel made her "respectable". There's no way back.
>>
>>84237712

she'll be reset sooner than later
>>
>>84237868

They can't "reset" her anymore than they could "reset" Carol Danvers or Spider-Woman. They have the eyes of the feminists and journalists on them now, they can't just make a character fanservice anymore.
>>
undo the Asian ninja waifu shit that's fucked the character

the asian ninja waifu is the only reason anyone cares about her at all.

Bring her back to being adorable Captain Britain, and not an asian sexpot.
>>
does she have a british accent or japanese?
>>
>>84238195
What about adorable Asian Captain Britain?
>>
>>84238195

You do know that Alan Moore introduced that for her only so he could have her fucked up, maimed and become a nervous wreck, right? He had no plan whatsoever to keep Betsy a hero, it was just to motivate Brian to go in a darker direction against Slaymaster.

>>84238202

British.
>>
>>84238236
Multicultural angle, could work. Although they might get Cho to draw her and then we'd be back to the tits and bush angle all over again.
>>
>>84238259
God DAMN those fucking books are expensive to get hold of.

Seriously, you try finding somewhere to get any print of Jaspers Warp without paying hundreds of dollars.
>>
>>84238259
Alan Moore didn't write any of that bro, he left way before the 1985 series. Alan Davis wrote all of the 85 series of Captain Britain.
>>
>>84230759
>>84230773

she's better off with Daredevil, Beast, Dr. Strange, Punisher, Jubilee, Rogue, Mystique, Forge

decent villains for her would be Spiral, HYDRA, Shadow King, Dracula, human supremacists and Apocalypse cults

also throw her in space
>>
>>84236882
this seems kosher
>>
>>84238370
>HYDRA
I concur
She should fight more tentacle robots
>>
>>84238609
spiral could fight tentacle robots... hey oh
>>
>>84236590
She looks so good without lipstick.

Birds of Prey.

Take Psylocke and two other C-list female mutants and have them team up to fight an OC villain, who would then form the basis of their shared rogue gallery. Perhaps throw in an unused Z-lister as a henchman for the villain mastermind.

The team approach helps keep the book afloat by appealing to multiple waifufags while allowing you to build three individual brands in addition to the team brand. You can even push the girl-power angle for additional awareness.

The biggest downfall to a book like this would be sloppy editorial. The first six issues need to be fast paced to build quick interest and need to be crossover free to establish an identity.
Afterwards, go wild with event tie-ins and guest stars.

>>84230759
Have her team up with Spot
She does the fighting, he does the transportation, together they fight ninjas

Make her a lesbian that gave birth to Logan's daughter and she transferred her consciousness into her daughters body thanks to a mcguffin, make her fall in love with x 23 and then kill x 23 with her new power to manifest adimantium from her hands and shapes it in any way she wants along with her invulnerability and has strands of Logan's personality.
She then becomes Magneto's gf and she kills him in in his sleep and becomes the new magneto, Magneta
Her daughter's soul is grabbed by the Phoenix force and shoved into jean grey's daughter a member of the inhumans from an alternate future that went to the past to warn the x men about magneta's world domination, now with the info gone the future remains unchanged.
Psylocke's daughter now plans to smitten her mother to make her fall in love with her and kill psylock in her sleep with the help of the phoenix Force, she fails and is put in a coma, psylock uses her mcguffin that she had hidden from everyone and used to to make her daughter pregnant with her new daughter and then transfer her consciousness to the new daughter, grow her to her late teens with the mcguffin and rule the world with the phoenix force, healing, adamantium power metal controlling powers and other op shit that i forgot about that would write her into a corner and make the whole marvel universe reboot and km all anybchance of making inhumans a thing, stopping marvel from shoving tuning fork man down my throat.

That's A-Force

Give her a street-level style solo book in Madripoor. Make it gritty and ultraviolent with her constantly battling yakuza and the hand.

Get a good writer like Remender or Fraction.

Start it out right with a ton of retail incentive variants by Jim Lee, Siya Oum, Artgerm, Cho, Dell Otto, etc for the first issue.

But this will never happen because Marvel doesn't own her cinematic rights.

Sex and Violence 2?

I was thinking more like 80s/early 90s Wolverine solo stuff.

>>84230759
But current Betsy is great. Remender's run added a lot to her character.

Eh, just rehashed her Claremont whining desu senpai.

>>84233306
That's actually a neat idea. Make changing bodies a part of her character.

>>84239376
It's gonna be drawn by Ed Benes, right?
>>
>>84240489
This >>84237158
sounds a lot better than A-Force.
>>
>>84230759
She's one of the main leads in Uncanny X-men right now, which is the only decent in continuity X-Book

She's in a better place than most X-men, she's being well written and when Land isn't around she's well drawn
>>
>>84230773
> date Spider-man
> Not Daredevil
Just team her up with Elektra for a comic about ninja ladies kicking ninja ass.
>>
>>84244164
Has anyone ever really picked up on the fact that Betsy' s personality should not be "totally kewl ninja", based on how she seemed pre-body change? It's like her actual personality became more fetishy along with her body.

That's kinda how IRL fetishes work, the perv gets their jollies, in this case by being an exhibitionistic slutty raceplay bikini ninja thrillkiller, and the next you know there's a new high-bar for their depravity that they need to exceed in order to get their jollies the next time.
