“For so long, my life has been out of control. Chaos and serendipity, wrapped in insanity. I have suffered, I have lost. Not just my life, but my very soul, my self. But no more. Now I know who I am.” – Elizabeth ‘Betsy’ Braddock, daughter of Otherworld, mutant, telepath, telekinetic, defender of the realm and, above all, X-Man.

I really would recommend this to all Psylocke fans who can afford it. When Betsy Braddock was first introduced in Captain Britain she had no powers. She was just Brian's twin sister. It was Alan Moore who had her dye her hair purple and develop psychic and precognitive powers, when he took over running things. This volume collects every appearance of Betsy (With powers) before joining the the X-men. It even includes the two annuals where she crossed from being on Captain Britain to being an X-Man.
