@kevsgayonly@fellixcore Betsy became a ninja in 1989 and K was created in 1994. Does that help you understand a little better?
If you like K that’s fine but you need to accept she wouldn’t exist without Betsy being created.
So maybe give a little credit to the original character.
Psylocke may not be the strongest Psi the X-Men have. But she’s always had the best psychic signature. Whether it’s Betsy or Kwannon, they eat the aesthetics DOWN. No other Psi is doing it like them. ❤️
If Betsy is in the next season of 97 I wonder which fit they would use for her if they switch up the look. Similar to how characters from s1 wear different looks in s2.
Would love to see the Kris Anka designed!
Just my two cents, but if you disregard the body swap, the general audience will see Psylocke as simply "Psylocke," if you get me. Psylocke's mantle is shared by women of all types. Each with their own story, world, and relationships connected to it. They're not interchangeable.
They build a virtuous, inclusive persona for themselves by acting concerned about a fictional Asian, but as an Asian myself, I just find those Westerners arrogant and ignorant.
Kwannon fans literally making shit up. Get ready for these responses if you engage:
SHE WAS ALWAYS PSYLOCKE
YOURE RACIST
DOESNT MATTER ITS STILL KWANNON
NOBODY LIKES BETSY
ALL BETSY FANS WANT HER IN KWANNONS BODY
How am I the racist when you want to reduce Kwannon to be a stand in for a white women. People just be spewing anything. You're not even smart enough to be in these conversations and I am glad u removed yourself
The irony is that, in trying to paint every Betsy fan as racist, some people ended up exposing their own racism through the objectification and fetishization of Asian bodies. P.S. This isn't about everyone. If the shoe doesn't fit, don't have a meltdown.
@gaactos Do you have any other piece of evidence that the character is Kwannon outside of a third party card? Everyone points to the card... when the show and the actress point to Betsy.
@ChrisA261@ckgarcia07@MarvelComicsHQ Agreed. Marvel could capitalize on two Psylockes but they’re choosing not to. Instead they’ll probably eventually introduce another red head Jean clone 😂
@pokememesy Her VA being Japanese doesn’t solve anything because she has an English accent… why would they intentionally hire a VA that’s British? That’s NOT Kwannon wtf
