™ and © Marvel Characters, Inc.
The Weapon X project that helped create the mutant killing machine known as Wolverine did not die with its creators. Efforts to develop and control a powerful weapon seldom do. The work continued, utilizing a genetic sample from the original Weapon X, run by a new generation of scientists. In order to make the project work, though, certain sacrifices had to be made. For example, the faulty Y chromosome from the sample DNA had to eliminated, creating an entirely new kind of killer—a female one. The young girl who would be called X-23 was born with claws like the original Weapon X. Unfortunately for her creators, she would prove just as rebellious…
This title, part of the “Marvel Next” line of comics, is sharply written by Craig Kyle and Christopher Yost and drawn in a style reminiscent of Jim Lee by Billy Tan.
