On the World of Psylocke FB page, we were discussing how silly we think the Fantomex story is, and how damaging it is to UXF. One of the more Common Consensus things was that, If Psylocke moves on, we'd like her to be single.
After a time of being single she and Wolverine would hook up for booty calls and what not, since She and he have had a long history together. We could also see them being intimate but not dating.
So one of the members mentioned Wolverine and Psylocke having the most in common, and he may have been attracted to her for a long time.
I mentioned that I think it went way back to her old body. Since she, Storm, and Wolverine were pretty much the heart of the Massacre/Aussie team.
Another member said he was probably more attracted to her new body over the old.
So it got me thinking, Why do people hate on the old body so much? Outside of her being a fighter or not. Why is it when people are asked, they say asian is hotter? Would it have been this way were she drawn with current day Artists? What if Psylocke was drawn by Jim Lee and not Silvestri or Adams from X-men 214 and up, would that have made a difference? I mean before she was Eurasian, she was a Top Supermodel, known for her stunning looks and tall shapely figure. So why do people think she was somehow frumpy and didn't care how she looked? Was the Claremont portrayal? Or is it just Being Asian = exotic = better thing?
I'm really interested to know. As for me I appreciate both bodies, like the white one more, and am Happy to see her as not just ass in a thong now.
