Doctor Stasis makes his deadliest move yet as Captain Krakoa takes charge of the X-Men! But what is the lie at the heart of the newest mutant hero?

Apologies if this was posted already, my brain can't keep track.

Nice cover. I really like Khora too. Her interaction with Cable in the ‘Cable: Reloaded’ one-shot was great. Hope she makes the cut for the relaunched Ewing book.
She fills that Feral/Marrow/X-23 young femme fatale role nicely IMO.
She reminds me of Chamber, even if their powers are quite different.
Let the flames destroy all but that which is pure and true!

I don't think "femme fatale" is the correct term here, since that one usualy refers to a female figure which is mysterious, attractive and seductive who uses these qualities to manipulate/charm male characters (often including the hero until he wises up) into acting according to her plans and machinations.
So it's a female character defined by both her sexual appeal and cerebral actions. For example the term is more applicable to Emma Frost or Selene.
If a femme fatale has martial abilities they are usualy a secondary trait which they hide behind their appearance, acting and non-martial actions.
However the three characters you mention are all primarily defined by their martial actions and nature, which makes them plain and simple "warrior women".
Feral and Marrow especialy don't fit the "femme fatale" archetype associated with the term, since they both have a "berzerker" characterization, being defined as temperamental and wild in their actions and fighting style (Feral is a clawed beast human, Marrow a brawler).
Even X-23 who is meant to be a "cold calculating killer" archetype because of her backround does not really qualify for a "femme fatale". She could pull such a presentation of, but it's not her standard characterization.
As for Khora. Has she actualy done much?
Feels like a case where a character has gotten early praise just by looking a certain way.
Don't let anyone else hold the candle that lights the way to your future because only you can sustain the flame.
