Psylocke walks into a bar...

The actual bar they were supposed to be in has changed so damn many times, I figured I'd just keep it at a club bar. Mostly because I didn't want to draw the shelves in the background. I'm noticing the ongoing theme of "I stop caring after the figures are drawn".

Sabertooth has been dead the vast majority of the time I've been reading comics and came back to life a few months ago. I've seen him for a single story arc in Wolverine, which was batshit insane, and one issue in Wolverine and the X-men in what I'm going to continue calling the best damn thing with a price tag. It also brought up a fight that should have struck me as a lot more obvious a while back that I'll have to do some time soon. Beast vs Sabertooth! Also, Sabertooth's lil speech at the beginning was great.

Psylocke I've read quite a bit about and know very little of. She's the sister of Captain Britain, and has spent a great deal of time protecting, for lack of the actual term used in Marvel, the multiverse. She's an English woman who's now in an Asian body, and I think it's the third Asian body she's been in. Now she might be in her original body again, I'll have to wait until the next X-Force to know. She's had an on-and-off relationship with one Warren Worthington, Angel/Archangel of the X-men. She seems to be victimized quite a bit, if the few things I've read are any indication. She's also a complete badass psychic ninja.

Also, from what I've heard, these two have a less than friendly history together. As in Sabertooth nearly killed Psylocke.
