Ah, Tarot. Working at a comic store I saw about 15 people come through and buy that every month and ALL of them looked like they’re required to go door-to-door when they move to a neighborhood. It’s the ones that are also buying Robin, Runaways, and Power Pack that you need to look out for.
I think the distinction is because she was cloned but then developed within a womb and born? Or something? Think of it like Big Boss and Solid Snake in the MGS series.
Short very low spoiler version of X-23:
X-23 is a clone (mostly) of Wolverine made in a new iteration of the Weapon X program. They had an incomplete DNA sample and all of the embryos that they made with the XY chromosome set failed so the new scientist they brought in on the project did unapproved side experiments and finally got it to work with the XX chromosomes. She’s then forced to carry the baby to term as a punishment for going behind their backs. The child (X-23 because she was the 23rd embryo) is raised in terrible, de-humanising conditions and trained to be an assassin.
Eventually, when she’s 13ish I think, the proverbial stuff hits the fan, and she escapes, pretty much destroys the facility and has adventures with the NYX kids, Young X-Men, and X-Factor.

I would totally get paid to make these costumes! Feel free to send money to paypal account…
Hmmmmm… must resist temptation to give random people money for cool ideas. Arrrg the force is strong in this one must use all my powers to resist her. Damn that didn’t work. Oh well I guess a pretty face is my weakness.

Heck, if you’re paying people to wear em, I will too. How do you feel about fat, hairy, male she-hulk?
More like my response got lost somewhere between typing it and it getting posted. Oh well so much for me being anywhere near clever.
Besides unless Tommy is a hermaphrodite I don’t think he could pull off a She-Hulk costume more like a Hulk costume and a hairy one at that if his statement was to be believed.
Also I would not like pics of that I like to keep my food down thank you very much.
A masculine-identified cis man could totally wear a She-Hulk costume - Hulk wears booty shorts whereas She-Hulk wears a leotard. We’re talking totally different outfits. Plus, let’s be real - a fat hairy man would be equally fat and hairy in booty shorts as in a leotard. Not that there’s anything wrong with fat and hairy. Just sayin’.
So I stopped by my local comic book shop yesterday to pick up some comics. I left with Green Lantern #1 and a collection of a comic called Rotten. I was also going to get a copy of Justice League, but they were sold out. This month, I plan to also get Batman, maybe Dark Knight, Green Lantern Corps, Green Lantern: New Guardians, and The Flash, and then whittle it down to just a few titles for subsequent months. Anyone have any particular titles they feel I should add to this? I was also thinking about maybe picking up All Star Western or Swamp Thing.
Looking at the list of available series, I have some questions about the differences between some of them. For instance, can anyone explain the difference between Batman, Batman: The Dark Knight, and Detective Comics? What about between Action Comics and Superman?
Really, there are no differences, it’s because those characters sell and they realize that they can get away with having several books on the shelf. They’ll run different stories, but it’s the same as the 14 Spider-man or Wolverine books - pick the one you like and just stick with that one or you’ll end up bogged down by redundancy. The more I find out about the New 52, the less impressed I am. I’ve said it before, if you’re going to reboot something, REBOOT IT. Start with the 2 or 3 main titles and branch out. The fact that there are Batgirl, Robin, and (Morrison’s ridiculous Batman, Inc-inspired) Batwing comics is a source of frustration, because in my mind, Batman should get set up first before the spinoffs happen. Not to mention they put so much stock in Grant Morrison, who’s time and time again proven himself a hack. At least they don’t have him screwing up Marvel any more.
