Rachel Summers ("Phoenix") & Betsy Braddock ("Captain Britain"). One of the best developments of Krakoa was having gay people in X-Men comics. Howard/To Excalibur will be remembered in a decade as an all timer MARK MY WORDS

"The book wouldn't have sold well if it was called 'Betsy Braddock'!"
Yeah, no duh, and I imagine Psylocke V2 wouldn't have sold as well if it was called 'Kwannon', that's why they superheroes have superhero names!

Question for you if I may, @hackintimseeley.bsky.social! I saw you mention Spiral won't be involved in the story but was wondering if this was kind of meant to be a wink and a nod (an IFYKY) moment for her involvement in the swap? That's how I read it at least.

There's been debate about whether or not the Braddocks are Catholics or Anglicans, as they are aristocracy but have been called Catholic on page... and I'm kind of wondering if "Bloody Bess," originally meant to be a Betsy variant, isn't also a reference to their Catholicism?

Now reading post Age of Apocalypse 90s Excalibur and I felt like trying the black Captain Britain costume on current Betsy Braddock. Super sleek, keeps some 90s Psylocke vibes while being true to the CB legacy.

I am obsessed with the idea of a Crimson Dawn miniseries exploring Bloody Bess's connection to Betsy and Kwannon, and how she would feel about Ray.
We know what happens when people threaten Rachel, but how would Betsy react if the person hurting her was someone who shared a piece of Betsy's soul?

I was really hoping with all the OG Psylocke love we got in X-Force and also Puzzle Quest this year that Marvel knew we wanted THIS version revisited, if any.
Maybe we'll get some references to it in Ninja?

October really spoiled me as a Rachel/Betsy shipper with that novel about how Ray is the love of B's life.
I need them back. And I need their demi-god from the multiverse/fae of Otherworld dynamic more thoroughly explored.

I occasionally remember I made a Substack while I was unemployed but then got a job much quicker than expected (very lucky!) and have not gone back to it since. 😅

weirdly, when you lay it out like that, there's a massive cosmic scifantasy story to tell here that I only just thought of right now. I have a whole other one in place but .... hmmm... yeah...
and, yeah. they could be an iconic couple.

So Geoffrey Thorne and Rebecca Podos took Tini Howard's concept of Rachel/Betsy as a couple and ran with it in two amazing stories and I wish they'd get the chance to do so again. These girls are soulmates.

a blue check on twitter posted a list of "straight x-men" he got off chatgpt that included Gambit, Rachel and Betsy and people proceeded to dunk on him for days...
which meant people kept sharing pictures of Retsy kissing and that was fun for me specifically.
