Wolverine/X-23 Laura Kinney Appreciation 2023

[mesjarch]

She wrote a short story in Fearless issue #2.

[Uncanny X-Man]

Look who's joining X-Force in April.



Still not a lot of plot details about Regenesis, but it looks like Laura could be getting a new rogue.

Very happy for Laura to join X-Force and just in general to have a new home. I also think X-Force is the team that suits her best.

Erica Schultz weighs in on how Laura treats her friends.

That's an interesting take on it, though if that's the case it was never very well-developed by past writers.

[Beaubier]

I’m hopeful for this dive into Laura’s past, as I’m not thrilled about the going ons in her present.

[Havok83]

While X-Force on paper is a good place for her, I hate it as I hate what Percy has done with that book and dropped it a long time ago

Great cover.

[mesjarch]

Superb cover.

BTW I won't deny that I laughed out loud at Laura on last two pages of X-Terminators #5. That was so out of character, but I couldn't stop laughing.

I'll allow it since since the OOC was intentional in-universe.

Hey Ambaryerno. Saw this somewhere else and thought of you.

Hope all is well.

A first look at Haymaker, Laura's new archnemesis.



Also, look who's back....

[Rakurai]

Nice!

Interesting to see Kimura back, between X-Force and All New Wolverine was a long break from her, wasn't there?
My guess would be Haymaker is some kid whose parent she killed or something like that. Great that she's getting new villains, she kinda misses them and I got bored with inheriting them from Logan.

That was my first thought, but then you'd think he's someone who would have turned up during Orphans of X, so either the vendetta is something else, or something happens to take him off the board.

As badly as she needs a Rogues Gallery of her own, I'm concerned it will be the latter and he won't be here to stay.

[Grunty]

Haymaker? That's the name of X-23's new "worthy" enemy?

Wonder what super natural protection he will have in order to not get torn to shreds within seconds of facing her in melee?

His design reminds me to the "Miles Morals is *insert more famous super hero*" thing from last year. His "Wolverine" design also featured a heavy black and red theme with a hood. Hopefully he won't suddently reveal having 4 wolverine claws too.

To be fair, name, appearance, powers, it's better to give the benefit of a doubt until the character had a chance to be showcased.

[The Big G]

"Haymaker" is probably the most generic name for a baddie but also brilliant in in its genericness

I kind of like it. And maybe they can tie it into powers by, say, having some sort of explosive punch or something.
