X-23:Target X #4 - Marvel


This book is just too cool. We start out with Matt and Steve, still interrogating Laura. She was up to the point in her story, where her next step was to kill Megan and Debbie. Desmond came in to the house with the trigger scent in the coffee, but before he can do anything with it he spills it on himself. Well needless to say, there's nothing to stop Laura from taking care of him. Unfortunately in all the hoopla, Debbie spills some coffee on herself. But with Megan's quick thinking, she runs upstairs and get Debbie in to the shower to mask it. I don't know if it was because of the water, or because Laura picks up Kimura's scent, but she stops and gets Megan and Debbie to safety. But she can't save herself, because Kimura can't be hurt. At least not by Laura. But obviously she gets out of it somehow, because, she's telling the story to Matt and Steve. I like the way they're intertwining her mission stories with her memories of the Facility. We're getting her background, and at the same time learning what's made up her character. Nurture over nature and all that. Anyways this is a fantastic book, and I love watching this character evolve.
