    I think the new look fits. True it's not as patriotic but it looks good and that is important.

    My friend reads a lot of comic books and he said that they changed her whole back story because the gods of the universe rewrote time. So maybe they are reinventing her as a whole?

    Sounds like a shitty excuse à la Marvel to make established franchises more palatable to modern audiences. Character coherency or consistency be damned. Just milk more money from it already.

    Anyone here remember Psylocke before she magically became that super psionic will-of-steel ninja ?

    As for WW, it looks pretty good... but I just hope they don't touch Captain America.

    Changing Captain America to a less patriotic version just wouldn't make sense.

    i didn't really get why her costume was so patriotic to begin with, but i only really know the parts of her story from the old and new justice league stuff. Isn't it a costume she brought with her... from HER country? How was it supposed to be American?

    Newbie !!

    That is how she was at first :

    Then she magically turned ASIAN and a mock-off of Elektra with psionics.

    I'm not saying I doesn't like the new Psylocke.
    But in my mind, she's a new character. She's not Psylocke.
    The original one has been lobotomized (total change of character -> steel ice temper), ethnically (caucasian -> asian) and culturally (english -> ninja ...) reshaped to sell more comics.
    Couldn't they have just introduced a new character instead of doing that ? Seriously ...
