Formerly a member of the X-Men and of X-Factor Investigations, he is currently operating on his own.” He has amazingly good luck, as well as superhuman agility. WHO IS HE – “Longshot is an extra-dimensional rebel warrior created through genetic engineering. And if the film includes even just one joke about Kickpuncher, the potential profit to be made gets even bigger. This comic already goes for a decent amount and could easily see renewed interest as production of the movie comes further along. WHY IT IS A LOCK – Community creator Dan Harmon recently announced that a Community movie was going to be made, fulfilling the show’s credo of “Six Seasons And A Movie”. It is a fan comic for the purposefully terrible Kickpuncher franchise that exists within the world of community. WHAT IS IT – The DVD set for Community season 1 shipped with a comic “written by Troy Barnes”. Credit to user “theallknowingone” for making an aggressive case for why this book should be included.įUN FACT – Kwannon was only created because writer Fabian Nicieza misunderstood Psylocke’s origin. 2 #1 – First time Kwannon goes by Psylocke after she is resurrected and her and Betsy return to their original bodies. ![]() 5 Ronin #4 – Incredible story about an alternate version of Psylocke with a tremendous cover.Astonishing X-Men #1 Mark Brooks Exclusive Variant – An absolutely stunning cover.Psylocke #1 – First solo title for the character.The black and white version is one of the most highly desired Campbell covers of all time, if not the most.

Doing that will take a long time though and I do not want to delay this article just for that. I like the challenge of trying to find them all and plan to do a separate article just for that purpose. With casting already done and easy appeal, Psylocke is an absolute lock eight days a week.ĬOMICS TO LOOK OUT FOR: There are a LOT of different Psylocke books that go for a lot of money. ![]() As recent news around both Daredevil and Wolverine has shown, Marvel has no problem bringing back actors from other franchises Anson Mount’s return as Black Bolt in Multiverse of Madness proves that the original franchise does not even need to be good in order for an actor or actress to return. X-Men: Apocalypse was generally considered to be a terrible movie, but the casting of Olivia Munn was widely praised.
