Captain America is apparently allergic to sparkly stars? Because that ninja never came near him.
Wolverine thinks the best way to treat someone for blood loss is to strip them and dress them in a skimpy nightie? That must have made some of those nights with Havok awkward.
The sole reason for this issue, other than continuity wanking over Wolverine meeting Captain America, is to have Jim Lee draw Black Widow and Psylocke in sexy poses, but we’re meant to take this Claremontian “isn’t the objectification of women terrible” aside seriously?
Did Betsy get dressed in the dark? Those shoes with that dress? Not to mention that dress? And those gloves? Wasn’t this woman a model at some point?

If someone were to do a skanky remake of Pretty in Pink, Betsy’s outfit would be the prom dress. Just a thought.

Is Psylocke smoking there? Did Lee figure that by this point, he might as well just hop completely on the “This is a fetish for someone” train?
