American Update: NYX #3 – debut X-23/Laura/’Wolverina’
*Marvel: A breakout hit of recent years was issue #3 of the short-lived series of NYX – short for ‘New York X-Men’ if you’re wondering – which featured the first appearance of Wolverine’s ‘cloned daughter’ (it’s comic books, don’t worry about it), a brainwashed psychotic assassin who moonlighted as an underage hooker. And they say the age of heroes is dead. Be that as it may, the character’s popularity mushroomed as she was featured in Avengers Academy, New X-Men, and other popular series of the 21st century, and she currently holds the title of Wolverine in her own right – well, as of this writing, anyway! (things are prone to changing rapidly in the current Marvel Universe). Interest was piqued further by a version of the character making her cinematic debut in the ‘Logan’ movie, causing this low-print run modern comic to acquire what seems to a casual eye a disproportionate ‘heat’. This copy of NYX #3 is VF+, on sale at £225. SORRY, THIS HAS NOW SOLD
