Betsy looks great here! She is also more Asian looking. Nice ninja pose, too. This would make a nice wall poster.

i love that big picture. dagger looks GREAT. psylocke looks powerful. psylocke doesn't look so asian in her mini though. i wonder if that's intentional?

Lode reminds me of a sinister version of Lobot from Star Wars: Episode V.

The X-Men Vs. Agents of Atlas picture looks great!

Is it my impression or is Betsy breaking a statue with her power? That would mean her telekinesis is still quite strong...

@Fsaker - Good point. Seems that way!

centurion said...

The mutant victim in the first pane seems reminiscent of Jesus on the cross.

@FSaker - Hi. I like this lineup of X-Men depicted in this image. It is like a amalgam of the best of the X-Men Blue and Gold Teams from the 90s. We have Colossus, Storm and Angel from Gold; Wolverine, Psylocke, Cyclops from Blue. What do you think?

@Anonymous 2:58AM - It's on my wallpaper, too!

FSaker said...

@centurion - Yes, it kinda looks like the 90s X-Men. The cool part is that the people who weren't with them back then (Rockslide, Nightcrawler, Sunspot, Cloak, Dagger and Surge) fit in perfectly with the rest of the team!

But Nightcrawler's outfit is colored wrong, I hope it gets fixed before the issue's release.

@FSaker - Hey. It's true. Nightcrawler left the X-Men at that time, then resurfaced a few years later. I do like the lineup of Rockslide, Dagger, and Surge.

Best,
centurion
