OLD WOMAN LAURA BEGINS!
In the not-too-distant future, the world is a utopia where heroes have succeeded in bringing peace worldwide. At the head of this utopia is none other than Laura Kinney, who's passed on her mantle of Wolverine and is living her best life as Madripoor's benevolent queen. But a long simmering evil will force Laura, out of retirement and back into the blue-and-yellow. This final journey will take everything Laura has to give....maybe even her life.

I really enjoyed this issue. The future story arc looks interesting and everything was paced really well. Gabby as the future Wolverine looked really great and I wouldn't mind exploring that in it's own book. This was a great issue for me and Laura's mission is already off the an action packed start and I liked the ending. Looking forward to the reveal next month. My big ask is that Tom Taylor give Laura true costume and code name before the next book begins. I liked her current costume just fine and see no reason why that can't continue into the X-23 series. It makes little since to regress Laura to the old outfit and name when she has grown so much.
We will see but I am riding this out till the end.

FYI, the book is double-shipping this month, so we'll have a second issue (I think next week).
Thanks. Looking forward to it.
it makes no sense for her to use x-23 there was a whole issue dedicated to why that codename is bad taste
@The_MJP It's confirmed that the reason she decided to use the name again will be explored in the new series.
oh, ok, personally i think the reason she changed back to X-23 is becuase the anti-SJW thought her being wolverine was insulting cause she's a diffrent gender than logan, and marvel editorial gave up and decided to make them happy not trying to look like an SJW apoligist, I do see where they're coming from, but i think it's a little overblown especially since at least she's an established supporting character and not some nobody that exist to be diverse like riri
