Last year was indeed not a good year for Laura. While in 2023 we got amazing X-Terminators series, that unfortunately was only a mini, she joined Captain Marvel series for issues 43-49 and had her own miniseries X-23 Deadly Regenesis (which was a flashback series), right now she is ongoingly written by Duggan (Vault!Laura/Talon), where she is mostly Synchs girlfriend or not even on panel since main X-Men comics is currently about resistance forces of mutants left on earth, and Young Laura/Wolverine is written by Percy, where she is mostly young, fem Logan, in X-Force series. Neither Laura has luck, but maybe it will change after Fall of House of X/Rise of Powers of X and hopefully two Laura mess will be sorted.
