I assumed he recognized her style because it's similar to Elektra's (who was also trained by The Hand).

Remender (the writer of Uncanny X-Force) has chosen to write her solely as a powerful telepath for the sake of the X-Force plotlines. The other X-Books still occasionally make use of her telekinesis, however.

Why do the animated X-shows never, ever include Psylocke in their primary cast? Ugh.

Kelly Osborne? No offence, but gross IMO.

Since I first saw her in Downton Abbey I've thought that Michelle Dockery would make a great British Psylocke. She's striking and beautiful and has the perfect balance of "hard" and "soft" in her features. Plus, she has an awesome voice.

LOL I'm not obsessed or anything...

This is just my assumption, but in my mind Spiral permanently changed her hair and eyes to purple during the body switch mess. I guess it made more sense to me than Psylocke constantly dyeing her hair to hide the roots! Seems out of character...

Yay! I've been a Psylocke fan for literally decades (since I was six years old, to be exact...god I'm old!), and I think that Uncanny X-Force is the best she's ever been written. Rememder had done excellent work with all of the team, but I think especially with Psylocke. And he gave her pants!

Yeah, Magneto vs. Iron Man could be a close call, but I agree that Psylocke wins for sure. I actually like Black Widow a lot, but Psylocke's telepathy ensures a victory. I think I'd actually prefer Psylocke vs. Spider-Woman.

Read the Outback Era X-Men. She did all kinds of telepathic stuff back then (illusions, mind control, psi-blasts, blocking the powers of others, pulling people's astral forms out of their bodies, etc.). After her body switch she mostly used the psi-blade, but was still considered a powerful telepath. Even in the early issues of X-Men vol. 2 she used telepathy for other purposes than the blade. She successfully took control of Sabretooth's mind at one point -- not an easy feat, considering his resistance to psionics. Only after the (terribly written) Revanche/Kwannon retcon was it stated that the body swap had only left her with half of her original telepathic strength.

I think Psylocke is more of an "attack psychic" than a psionic surgeon, but if you ask me she's no slacker in the telepathy department. Maybe she was off doing other stuff while Emma and Jean were honing their telepathy. Makes sense to me; she's a busy girl.

Me too.
