Laura in X-Men United #3: The right sentiment, the wrong voice

I'm surprised more people aren't talking about this issue. There's a lot to like here. For one thing, she's acrobatic, flying over the heads of everyone else to engage the enemy, which is a MUCH APPRECIATED detail; her fighting style is and always should be different from Logan's.

But she also gets to share her trauma about what happened to Sarah Kinney, and how Laura's lived with the guilt, but still used the chance Sarah gave her. It's a touching moment, and a pretty big moment for Laura. She actually gets to resolved the whole situation and be the star of the show, at least as far as the X-Team is concerned.

My only complaint is that the writers still don't have her voice right. She's still talking more like Logan than herself. Marvel's writing team really needs to reread Tom Taylor's work at least. Try to get a better feel for who Laura is and how she interacts with others.

Aside from that, pretty solid issue, and a good Laura issue.

Who believes that Laura Kinney/X-23 is the better Wolverine?

WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN

Regarding Marvel Studios' Deadpool & Wolverine, I think it was SUCH a missed opportunity to not have Dafne Keen wearing this specific outfit on screen; narratively, this would have worked. There's a chance that we could see this outfit (or a variation thereof) worn by Keen or perhaps if she's introduced in X-MEN '97, but still...

Excited to finally start my collection!

I picked up the first three issues of Generation X-23 while browsing a comic shop this past FCBD and decided to start collecting as much of Laura’s stories as I can. I ordered the X-23 Omnibus from the same shop since it was in stock and it arrived today. Unfortunately as I was opening it to examine each page I discovered a printing issue. A page was folded in and appears to be mis-cut, and the following two pages are also attached in a corner. I’m hoping that’s the extent of the issues and there’s no missing content.

Still I’m really excited to start my collection! I remember first reading Laura’s stories when I was starting university. Marvel vs. Capcom 3 came with a trial subscription for Marvel Unlimited and I ended up reading everything that was available for Laura at the time, her solo runs, NYX, New X-Men, X-Force, etc.. She quickly became my favorite comic book character. While I stopped reading comics regularly, I still checked in on Laura every now and then so I am familiar with most of the character’s story. I can’t wait to read through all those adventures myself and revisit the stories that first made me a fan!

What would happen if these two met?

I personally think Damian would be head over heels for Gabby the moment he sees her claws snikt out cut down a few thugs. Plus they both love animals. He’s probably never seen a living Wolverine before, so he’d adore Jonathan. I personally ship it. Wouldn’t be the first time a Robin fell for an X-Men.

I'd really like it if they made a black, white and blood series for Laura

I think you could be good. I even have a couple story ideas if they made it. Does anyone else have their own story ideas for it?
