Psylocke #3 (of 4)

, aka Elizabeth "Betsy" Braddock, sometimes spelled as Elisabeth, is a Marvel Comics superheroine, most notably part of the superhero team the X-Men. Created by writer Chris Claremont and artist Herb Trimpe, she first appeared in the UK comic book (Dec. 1976), by the Marvel imprint Marvel UK. She was initially a supporting character in the adventures of her fraternal twin brother, Captain Britain, briefly substituting for him in the role. Later, she became the mutant superheroine Psylocke. Originally presented as a telepath, the character was eventually written as unexplainedly possessing telekinesis. Psylocke later possesses both abilities. This four-issue miniseries is a soul-searching journey of sorts for one of the X-Men's more interesting members. Issue #3 shows how comfortable writer Chris Yost is with the character, coming up with a complex, layered narrative. It is Harvey Tolibao's artwork however that knocks my socks off. He's just perfect here. I'd like to see him doing Dr. Strange, or the Fantastic Four versus Dr. Doom.
