I have zero interest in the character X-23. She’s a young, female clone of Wolverine that skirts around the edges of the X-Men franchise. I just don’t care about her at all. She’s a silly idea that has somehow gained enough traction to warrant her own series. I guess she’s got fans somewhere…(says the guy who loves Multiple Man and the Mimic).

But despite my disinterest in X-23, I’ll definitely be buying her new issue Wednesday because she’s going to be baby-sitting Franklin and Valeria Richards, the children of Mr. Fantastic and the Invisible Woman from the Fantastic Four!

The preview pages for this issue, written by Marjorie Liu and drawn by Sana Takeda, are too adorable for me to pass up.
