This is really a very nice book. First of all I love the character. I love what they've done with her so far, and where they seem to be taking her. The scripts are fantastic. They're by Craig Kyle and Chris Yost, who are also doing the New X-men book. And Laura is a member of that team. Mike Choi and Sanja Oback handle the art, and it really has a great feel to it. Very crisp and clean. Anyways, Laura is still talking to Matt and Steve about what happened when Kimura came to the house where she was living with Megan and Debbie. They wanted to send Laura into a rage, with her trigger scent, and have her kill Megan and Debbie. But that didn't work out the way they had planned. So now Kimura is here to finish the job and return Laura to the facility. She tells them how Kimura broke her neck, so that she wouldn't interfere with the kill. But of course she has healing powers also, so that took care of itself. She then handcuffs her to keep her from interfering, but Laura cut her own hand off rather that stand around and watch her friends die. And finally in her rage, she beats Kimura almost unconscious, not entirely because she is invulnerable after all, but enough that Debbie and Megan can escape the house. Laura then electrocutes her, and blows up the house on her. She really wants Debbie and Megan to get free. She even escorts them up the the Canadian border, gives them a map to a safe-house, and tells them where they can find money to live on. And the next part of her journey? "I went after him. The one who started it all. The one that made me a weapon. The one who made me a killer." While she's saying this, we're seeing the front gate of Xavier's school. I think she's talking about Wolverine. Awesome book. Unfortunately next issue is the last in this series. But I'm sure we'll see more of her in the future.
