Jeremy Whitley about All-New X-Men MU#1
http://www.cbr.com/marvels-teen-heroes-battle-monsters-unleashed/The solicits I read for “All-New X-Men” #1.MU suggested Laura’s story would be a fun investigative style tale in New Orleans.
Yeah, Laura is in the swamps of New Orleans and working with her good friend Gambit. They’re trying to figure out and track the thing that is killing his friends and fellow thieves.
Meanwhile, the rest of the team is in New Orleans enjoying Mardi Gras.
Gambit and Laura’s friendship goes back to Marjorie Liu’s fantastic “X-23” series. What’s it like having them reunite in your story?
It’s a lot of fun because it’s been a while since the end of “X-23.” I went back and reread all of Marjorie’s stuff, which was all great and it’s interesting to see how the kind of tone around stories with Laura has shifted. “X-23” was a pretty serious book, and “All-New Wolverine” is not exactly light hearted, but Laura has more of a sense of humor now. She’s a bit dryer and more well rounded. It’s because she’s grown so much as a character.
So reteaming her with Gambit was a lot of fun. He’ll get a chance to see how much she’s grown. He sort of took her under his wing in the “X-23” series.
