Well, focus my totality. It’s Elizabeth Braddock! (Yes, Betsy is still one of my favourites. No matter how much the Krakoa-era writers tried to make me think otherwise.)

Somebody asked where Wolverine was in a previous post. He is still in the Morlock Tunnels, itching for a rematch with the Marauders.

Glad to see I'm not the only one who headcanons Kitty as a Star Wars fan.

Is it headcanon? Doesn't an issue of The Brood Saga have her reading one of the Marvel Star Wars comics? And something about a Darth Vader cosplay at one point?

From Uncanny X-Men #157 (1982).

Ah, there it is.

I wonder if the costume made her sound like James Earl Jones.

Vocoders were available even on Earth-1218, and would’ve been simplicity itself for Comic-Book Science.

(Kitty wouldn’t yet have had the opportunity to encounter Transformers on either a Watsonian or Doylist level, and thus be inspired to rig up a Frank Welker impression—something, by the way, that the 1984 G1 Transformers Electronic Voice Changer did not even remotely deliver, and no, I am never going to let that drop.)
