Book Synopsis

The next generation of X-mutants is here as the legacy of Laura Kinney grows!

Laura Kinney was brainwashed and trained from birth to be the ultimate assassin, X-23. She's long put that life behind her and built a new one as the heroic Wolverine. But she hasn't quite outrun her past yet! As she and her clone sister Gabby encounter someone who seems to be their long-lost friend, the harrowing plot they uncover will turn their worlds upside down. Because the Facility that created X-23 and her clones didn't stop there! Meet the new X-numbers, assembling under Laura's leadership! And meeting X-23 is shocking enough -- just imagine when they come face-to-face with the original Wolverine! But Logan's in a bad way, and only this crew can help him!
