Laura Kinney's past comes back to haunt her in "X-23: Deadly Regenesis #2." Marvel shared a first look at the upcoming comic.
- In Erica Schultz and Edgar Salazar's “X-23: Deadly Regenesis #1,” Laura set out to find herself in a world that has tried to mold her into a weapon many times over.
- However, a selfless act led her to be identified by Kimura, her sadistic handler from the Facility that created her.
- Delighted by this discovery, Kimura sent Jordan Gastin, AKA Haymaker, to take Laura in. Unbeknownst to Laura, though, Haymaker has a connection to the violent past she so desperately wants to escape.
- “X-23: Deadly Regenesis #2″ will show Laura's first encounter with Jordan as Haymaker—and it's about to get bloody.
- In a special first look at the issue, Laura squares up for a fight, her hands bloodied in the aftermath of a toxin that dampened her healing factor.

- As Haymaker charges her, she flashes back to her time at the Facility with Kimura, which leads her to put her claws away…until Haymaker knocks over a street lamp and she's forced to chop it up into smaller pieces to save some innocent bystanders, anyway.
- What is Haymaker's connection to Laura and her past as X-23? Learn more in “X-23: Deadly Regenesis #2,” on sale April 12.
