Marvel has sent out the notice "New Psylocke Comic Series To Be Announced At San Diego Comic-Con! An all-new Psylocke comic series launches this November. Stay tuned for the full announcement this Saturday at the Marvel Comics: X-Men: From The Ashes panel at San Diego Comic-Con!" I put the hyphens in because they forgot them.

Kwannon first appeared in X-Men #17 in 1993 created by Fabian Nicieza and Andy Kubert, revealed to have been bodyswapped with Betsy Braddock when she became a Japanese ninja. Thirty years later, after "yellowface" criticism for Betsy Braddock, they returned to their original bodies, and Kwannon became the second Psylocke.
An intuitive empath with low-level telepathic abilities, and associated with the Hand ninjas, when she inhabited Betsy Braddock's body, she gained telepathic abilities and the power to generate a katana and other bladed weapon constructs composed of psionic energy. She retained those abilities with they eventually switched back… here are those panel details. I will probably be asleep.
