Psylocke
Few characters in the Marvel Universe have proven as enduringly magnetic as Psylocke, who burst onto the scene in The New Mutants Annual #2 in 1986, courtesy of the legendary creative partnership of Chris Claremont and Alan Davis. A fixture of the Copper Age and a genuine X-Men institution, she has shared some of comics' most electrifying pages alongside Wolverine, Storm, Rogue, and Ororo Munroe across the pages of Uncanny X-Men, Uncanny X-Force, and X-Men — a murderers' row of Marvel's finest. With 533 catalog appearances spanning nearly four decades and 19 key issues to her name, she's the kind of character whose collected runs serious fans pursue with real devotion. Whether you're a longtime X-Men devotee or just discovering the depth of Marvel's mutant corner, Psylocke rewards every page.
