[QUOTE=Sin Nick;3400636]- Damn shame what they did to Bishop and now they wanna relive it? Trash.
- The idea of Daken as an X-Man is just as ridiculous as Sabretooth.
- So much for Laura forging her own path. First she took the name, then "Enemy of the State", now [B]"Old Woman Laura". Literally living off Wolverine's legacy smh.[/B]
At least Storm is off Gold... for the time being anyway.[/QUOTE]
The story line is the complete opposite.

[QUOTE=Nazrel;3400661]Is the fact the story line's the complete opposite lost on you?[/QUOTE]
It's not. The fact they're going with the whole "Old Woman Laura" thing is enough.

Different like how Laura is a retired old woman now, but something happens that forces her to pop the claws again. Yeah... different...

I wish Brisson's editor slapped him in the face when he recommended a story with Evil Bishop.
I'll be picking up X-Men Gold, Blue and Red along with the Wolvie books. Make sure and pick up Vemonized since that's where the O5 will be appearing.

LOL I never cared for the original OML story in the first place, I'm just pointing out how Laura is literally living in Logan's shadow. I remember back when she took up the "mantle" people joked about a Old Woman Laura and now here we are. Laura as X-23 was an interesting character, but her tenure as "Wolverine" has done her no favors.

Old Man Logan was never exactly a 'hero' again though, and never donned a new costume. So it's very clearly a different story.

Well everyone knows that but Marvel could've named the arc something else.

The last decent Laura story was the Civil War II tie-in. Everything else has been progressively crappier in my opinion. Hopefully, Taylor gets kicked off the book and replace with somebody who gets Laura.

Because everyone going to call it that anyway, so why bother calling it anything else?
Old man Deadpool, Old woman Doreen; Old [Sex identifying noun] [Name] has become a thing.

Looks like I’m buying Cable and either OML or Hunt for Wolverine. Haven’t decided which version I’m throwing my money at in April, but it won’t be both.
-
Every Rogue Book and X-men Blue.
-
Red, blue, gold
Astonishing
New mutants
Domino
Exiles
...wow that’s a great month! Anyone know if Exiles will continue to ship twice monthly?

[QUOTE=Huntsman Spider;3398886]I'm intrigued that "Old Woman Laura" seems to be the flipside of "Old Man Logan." Whereas Old Man Logan was set in a dystopia where the villains had taken over after slaughtering all the heroes and the former Wolverine was a broken shell of himself, Old Woman Laura is in a more utopian future where the heroes have banded together to make the world a truly better place and Laura herself has long since passed on the Wolverine mantle while significantly cleaning up Madripoor. Of course, given that this is a Wolverine story, I'm waiting for the inevitable dark secrets and hidden horrors and tragedies behind such a seemingly idyllic future to come out.[/QUOTE]
good lord there is old woman laura now? marvel pls stop it
