X-23 in NYX - Marvel Unlimited Links

Welcome,

If you’re a fan of X-23, you aren’t alone. For a character used in a cartoon, she’s grown into a beloved part of Marvel’s continuity. The story in Nyx is interesting, and well worth checking out. NYX stands for District X, New York City, also known as “Mutant Town.”

X-23 was created for the X-Men: Evolution animated television series before being brought into comics. X-23 first appears in episode #41 (season 3, episode 11) of the program titled "X-23."

X-23 Wikipedia Dump

A top-secret program is tasked to replicate the original Weapon X experiment that bonded adamantium to the skeleton of Wolverine. The project is taken in a new direction: Doctor Martin Sutter recruits renowned mutant geneticist Doctor Sarah Kinney to develop a clone of Wolverine.

Since the only genetic sample from Weapon X is damaged, Kinney is unable to salvage the Y chromosome. Kinney proposes the creation of a female genetic twin; her request is denied. Sutter's protege Doctor Zander Rice, whom he has raised after Rice's father was killed by the original Weapon X, is opposed to the idea. After 22 failed attempts at reconstituting the DNA using a duplicate X chromosome, the 23rd sample yields a viable sample to combine with an embryo. Although Kinney is allowed to proceed, Rice exacts revenge for her insubordination by forcing her to act as the surrogate mother of the specimen. For nine months, Kinney's every move is monitored; finally, she gives birth to "X-23".

Origin - Wolverine's Story Revealed!

Greetings comic book fans,

Thanks to the six-issue, instant-classic masterpiece known as Origin, the story of Wolverine’s early life in Canada (and by early, I mean 19th-century early!!!) was finally revealed to us all. When we first met Wolverine way back in the pages of the Incredible Hulk, all we knew was that this crazy guy in a mostly-yellow costume was a badass dude with metal blades that popped out of the back of his hands.

As you know, Wolverine had long since been unable to remember anything about his past life, and Origin blows the lid off!

You can start reading this classic tale on Marvel Unlimited by visiting this link to get to the first issue, and since the whole story is told in one series, you don’t need a list of links to navigate.

For those of you (like me) who want to hold this book in your hot little hands, click Wolverine: Originto purchase from Amazon. As of this posting, the price for paperback is only $11.65.

There are many other “origin” stories involving Wolverine, so you can look forward to more posts about the man with the adamantium skeleton in the future.

By the way, a version for kids is also available at Wolverine: An Origin Story (Marvel Origin Story)

Until next time,

 

Excelsior!!!
