X-23: Deadly Regenesis #1 sets up the complexities of Laura Kinney in a clever way, establishing who she is before a new threat emerges. Schultz clearly understands this character, while Salazar keeps the detailed art entertaining, making for a strong start. Read Full Review

X-23: Deadly Regenesis #1 reintroduces the reader to Laura at a difficult time in her life and shows how she hopes to use her assassin skills to do good, while also introducing a new antagonist to challenge her. The issue effectively uses flashbacks to remind the reader of Lauras past and demonstrate how she and others are still affected by it. Read Full Review

As for the look of it, Edgar Salazar does a great job of emulating the feel of that specific era without it feeling dated or overly derivative, which does a lot of work to convince the reader theyve been transported back to this specific era. It seems the goal of this series is to make it so that, hypothetically, someone could read every Laura Kinney-focused comic in chronological order without it being too jarring, and on that level X-23: Deadly Regenesis succeeds. As for whether it not it transcends the flashback-y premise, that might remain to be seen. Read Full Review

There's potential here for something entertaining, but we'll have to see if the rest of the miniseries delivers. Read Full Review

This reminded me of the bland, functional stories that fill one-shot anthologies, but stretched out to miniseries length. Neither writer nor artist offers anything of any great interest here, unfortunately

Static art and weak writing are in full effect here. Pronoun game and mansplaining grip are distracting while Haymaker looks too much like a Jason Todd red hood rip off. The whole issue is just dull really. If you want to collect all things Laura then you can pick this up, otherwise skip it.
