    They have a very cool style, particularly when it comes to expressions and the colouring. Thanks for sharing - I really like the concept of this piece. What was your initial commission description, if you don't mind me asking?

    I listed each version of Laura that I wanted with visual costume references as well as a line or two about each version's circumstance/state of mind. That's about it, really. The layout and composition was down to the artist, as it should be.

    And while I'm showing off art, I guess most X-23 fans will probably recognize these recent additions to my collection?

    Dang, those are some fine pages. Wish I had the dough to get more seriously into art collection, I only have a few pages/sketches from more indie artists.
    Continuity, even in a "shared" comics universe is often insignificant if not largely detrimental to the quality of a comic.

    Those covers are really nice! It's too bad they aren't inked though.

    Huh? Did they fix the claws? Thought those were mis-drawn in the final artwork.

    It's an expensive and addictive hobby, for sure, but I enjoy it a lot.

    Doesn't make much of a difference.

    I asked Ashley about this and apparently it was a mistake that happened when doing some last-minute digital editing and it slipped through and got printed.

    That's not an accident.

    While it's not her WORST look, it's certainly pretty forgettable.

    How old was Laura when she debuted in the comics?

    She was about 15 in NYX.

    Though she was 12 to 14, through most of Innocence Lost, and Target X. (Also creation, birth, and age 7 are also depicted in them.)
    Her career as "worlds greatest assassin" was ages 12 to 13.

    Context is king.

    X-23's most basic surface level characteristic that any idiot should grasp: Stoicism.
    I don't demand that her every minor appearance be a nuance in-depth examination of her character, but is it to much to ask she be written in Archetype?! This is storytelling 101! If you want people to stay invested in a character, you need to, at the bare minimum, write them such a way that they can plausibly be believed to be the same character!

    I found it strange it took her 14 years to reach her 21st birthday. That’s pretty fast compared to Kitty who took 30 years to go from 13 to 21.
