X-23:Target X #3 - Marvel


This particular issue, gives us some more of the back story on X-23. Cap and Matt Murdock are questioning her, still, and she is telling them about the Facility, and the trigger scent. The Facility is where she was raised and trained, 'er I mean . . . programmed. She was then farmed out to other people as an assassin. Such as the time they let Wilson Fisk use her to take out one of his opponents, Fade. The trigger scent was used to make her kill targets that she couldn't be trusted to kill on her own. It sends her in to a frenzy, and she just kills on instinct. When she comes out of the frenzy, she doesn't even know what she did. They used this to make her kill . . . her sensei, her mother, and . . . . . . Meggan and Debbie. She's with Meggan when she gets her first glimpse of the X-men. On TV of all things. She also see a picture of Wolverine, which set off some feelings. Anyways, it turns out that Meggans boyfriend is actually an undercover Facility operative. He's tasked with returning X-23. Of course you know what they say about, " . . . the best laid plans of mice and men . .". So next issue we'll probably see what actually happened, and just how Laura ended up in Cap and Matt's custody. And I'm sure we'll get some more of Laura's background.
