from Kwannon's past, are there only Matsuo & Nyoirin Henecha that we know?
“Strength is the lot of but a few privileged men; but austere perseverance, harsh and continuous, may be employed by the smallest of us and rarely fails of its purpose, for its silent power grows irresistibly greater with time.” Goethe
Kwannon seems to be being written into age old Asian stereotypes. This seems like the "knowledgeable sensei" trope.
Just read the issue ..Meh..Meh... I can't call it bad but I can't call it good either. I think the biggest problem with this book it that takes itself a little too seriously. And is badly in need of character to light up the book at times to stop you from realize how comic cheesy things are in it. The same problems exist from the other issue, It is trying a little too hard to deep and meaningful, The art is inconsistent (I think it is a little better in end), Kwannon dominates focus a little too much at cost of her two castmates. X-23 is deferring to Psylocke a little much and it comes off like a little lost puppy at times . I think still X-23 fans were over complaining about things but they are clearly things wrongs with Laura in Fallen Angels. This is not the character who was in X-23 solo I get the annoyance at the regression of the character. I don't think problem is Kwannon teaching X-23 things, the problem has been imo X-23 is way less assertive and confident in this book.

This is a tough one. I am still interested in the antagonist and Kwannon, but I dislike Laura's portrayal here.

did x23 have to be held back from killing a kid ? And why is their a white outline on the characters in parts, they look like stickers because of it
Yeah, I thought she got a better handle on that from back in ANW. Granted, I'm still liking the buildup of Psylocke II's personality, but it tends to come off a shilling if her companions are dumbed down for her.
