What was the point of her background as a prostitute?
Was it really necessary?
What does it actually add to her character?
>>78146896
Why can't somebody storytime that so /co/ can judge?
>>78146896
Did it trigger you?
Diiiiid it?
>>78146896
Shes lives her entire life being used by other people.
Plus the story in genral was to show life for mutants on the street
>>78146983
Because it was a tiny tiny part of a pretty dull comic that literally had nothing to do with X-23, but she was put in there because the writer just liked her character on X-men Evolution.
>>78147023
this
>>78146896
I don't know, but I want to lick her midriff.
>>78146896
Anon, your waifu isn't pure, get over it.
>>78147037
Wasn't the writer Joe Quesada? In any event NYX was pretty shit all around. Had some good art for the first issue but it was like reading something written by a 14 year old.
>>78146983
Somebody did a few days ago, might even still be in the archives.
>>78146896
They should make that a thing. A brothel with cloned (anti)>>78146896
heroes and vigilantes
>>78146896
X-23's debut was in NYX, and for that story, it makes sense, since it's about abused teens having to grow up in the lowest slums of the city, and how those kinds of broken people are completely incapable of dealing with the sudden onset of mutant powers. Having a young prostitute that hates her life so much, she cuts herself, but whose healing powers makes her in huge demand because she keeps looking fresh, yes, it makes a lot of sense in that context.
Only after that miniseries concluded, the decision was made to fold her into the Marvel canon.
it makes her deep
>>78146896
Why are any backstories necessary?
>>78146896
Well that was added by Joe Quesada, known maker of good decisions.
>>78147037
I like how Joe Q took a character who literally made her debut in a children's cartoon and made her a prostitute. Comics, everybody!
>>78147165
Comic book debut. She was created for X-men Evolution and for some reason despite being a wolverine clone she was brown.
>>78146896
Most "muh rape" backstories are just shitty attempts to make the story seam deeper and more "mature" than it actually is.
>>78146896
It makes her impure so that waifufags will always have the fact that she's had cocks insider her hanging on the back of their head every time they fap to her
>>78147915
Yeah but healing powers = permanent virgin.
>>78147165
>a young prostitute that hates her life so much, she cuts herself, but whose healing powers makes her in huge demand because she keeps looking fresh
That's not a bad idea in itself, but when you mix that with a Wolverine clone equiped with adamantium, shit just doesn't gel together
>>78147165
I thought she was in demand because she kept cutting masochists up which they thought was awesome.
Maybe she's just a sadist who likes cutting people.
>>78147204
Deep like Iceman's closet?
>>78146896
You use the word "necessary" the way one might say "shooting the dog is necessary".
What makes her backstory so awful to you?
>>78146983
I actually did a few days ago.
>>78146896
>Was it really necessary?
I'm sure you'd agree turning tricks generally beats starving to death.
>>78148713
If only there was some organization that helps mutants.
Especially clawed ones.
>she was owned by an evil corporation since conception,
>body and mind were literally their property and thhey could do whatever they wanted to "her" body and mind, since her body was actually yheir body
>was raised as an obedient slave to go murder people
>people freak out that she worked a few months as a prostitute
purityfags are retards I swear.
She lived a very irregimented life doing always what others told her to do and without the chance to develop her own personality, desires, lies and dislikes. When she got out she was lost and had no idea what to do.
Some guy found her and told her to follo him and gave her something to do, and she did, and it was probably infinitely better than her previous life.
Probably the most terrifying thing for her would be when a client tried to be nice and asked if she was ok with doing X-thing, or if she liked doing it, because she'd have no idea what to answer and no idea that she was supposed to have preferences, up to that point.
>>78146896
She's so broken and damaged like a FRAGILE FLOWER anon
>>78147915
>>78148607
she was in demand because at the facility they trained her in how to seduc and to service sexually both men and women in case it would benecessary for a mission so she was the most expert there
>>78147107
Well does her Hymen and Vagina revert back into "virgin" state at least?
>>78148733
The fact that there are plenty of organizations helping the homeless, does not prevent homeless people still existing to this day.
>>78146896
Not really, but then again I'm a filthy degenerate who's favorite version of Laura is the Homeless Mutant Quest version.
>>78149022
Her hymen will heal but that's not an indication of virginity. The breaking of a hymen during first sex is a myth. They can be torn from sex but also from other activities.
Google it.
>>78146896
>What was the point of her background as a prostitute?
Adds something mildly interesting.
>Was it really necessary?
No, they could've given any number of backgrounds, but there's nothing particularly wrong with prostitute.
>What does it actually add to her character?
Well, depending on why she was a prostitute says something about who she was which adds something to who she is now. It opens to possibility to ask, "why did she go form this to this?" It's called storytelling.
>>78149202
College humor is a bad source of information anon.
>>78149320
The information comes from a study done years ago. Evaluation of the Sexually Abused Child: A Medical Textbook and Photographic Atlas.
>>78146896
>Was it really necessary?
no. her entire origin would be about her getting non-sexually violated by her creators. The prostitute angle adds pretty much nothing. I don't know why we are discussing X-23 though. It's not like she's actually around anymore.
>>78149478
>>78149478
She's Wolverine now
Prostitutes need representation too, you /pol/tards!
>>78149497
no she isn't. That's some other character I've never seen before.
>>78149202
I'm more concerned about the "tightness" like the meat curtains are still neatly tucked inside.
>>78149547
You aren't one of those that believe that innies can become outies from sex/friction, are you?
>>78146896
I feel it does add to her character and I hope it never gets retconed.
>>78149591
Isn't it a genetic thing?
>>78149607
Yes. You can't change a vay-jay just by having sex. Even lots of it.
>>78149591
I've seen models still have innies and have a healthy sexual lifestyle, they probably date white men with average penis size and don't fuck as hard or They have it repaired which is expensive. In Laura case, it'll probably revert back.
>>78149697
Pussies don't change shape with sex.
>>78148950
This reads as a bad fanfic
>>78149202
Sort of related, why do women have hymen? What's the evolutionary purpose of it?
>>78149716
>He hasn't seen thick nigger cock causing semi vaginal prolapse.
>>78149753
Probably hygiene or something
>>78149760
>he thinks monzetsu doujins are anatomically accurate
>>78149742
it is. that anon made it up just then. do better next time
I am perfectly fine with woman being prostitute in the past. At least prostitutes don't lie to you. Cock-hungry prostitute is 1000 times purer than a person who betrayed you.
>>78146896
What does it add? Dick is what!
>>78149858
I dated a prostitute once. I was in love too. She was cool.
>>78149742
>>78149803
wherever female assassins existed bedding the terget to then kill him was the standard mode of action for them.
And seducing and having sex are also ways of infiltrating and acquiring information, for both male and female spies.
Considering that her job consisted of both it's logical that she would be trained in that too.
Would you rather be in a relationship with an ex-pornstar or an ex-prostitute?
>>78149970
prostitute would probably be cleaner. none of this 'take two dozen more raw dicks than you agreed to this shoot, or you're not getting paid and you'll never find work again' stuff
>>78149022
Hymens don't even break so much as stretch sometimes but even then not always, usually that's not after having sex for a while anyway, and everyone's is different so no you can't tell whether a woman is a virgin or not by looking at the hymen. Some women also don't have much of a hymen to speak of.
The only time you'd have a hymen that would have to "break" is this really rare medical condition where it actually is closed off totally and that can be fatal without an operation because of the build-up/toxicity of the menses. But that condition is super rare and would have to be surgerically taken care of at puberty.
>>78149970
Depends, which one has more money? I'd think the pornstar unless the other was a super high class call girl right? The richer one.
>>78146896
Edginess.
>>78150083
> Hymens don't even break so much
My sister broke hers when she fell from bike. Her mudslim husband then cut her head off for not being a virgin.
>>78146896
Anon, have you ever heard the phrase "darker and edgier"?
I think the prostitute background is great for a mutant character
It should have been a different mutant character that wasn't first introduced in a children's cartoon though
>>78150398
Agreed. Her healing cures AIDS
>>78150398
That's Stacy X, no one liked her.
>>78148950
>trained in seducing men
Step 1. Show up.
Step 2. Be naked.
>>78150912
> Be naked.
This is not necessary. Sometimes a simple glance would do. Check this.
>>78149478
What's the deal with Cap and Matts faces?
I don't like how they make prostitution out to be a bad profession. There's literally nothing wrong with getting paid to have sex.
>>78151190
It's not so much the transaction as it is the difficulty of regulation and the massive crime syndicates that control much of the market even in countries where it is legal.
>>78151518
There are nice pimps out there, you know.
>>78147250
that moment when you realize all of X-23's VA'svoiced on MLP.
>>78147250
I don't want to be That Guy, but why did they make her straight up white when she went to comics? She was delicious brown native american or something in X-men Evo.
>>78151693
Wait what. I thought Tara was the only one.
>>78151190
prostitution in and of itself is usually harmless, but it is beyond corrupt and if the woman isn't particularly smart, which be honest most of them aren't, then they are easily taken advantage of and end up being forced into business relationships with really deplorable and shady characters
>>78146896
>Bruce Tim
I really want him to draw smut or a porn comic.

Haven't you seen his smut art?. Not even "Naughty & Nice". Dude you're missing out
>>78148607
It was just the last guy who was maso. There's no indication that she had any other clients like that.
>>78148083
Go away, legoman
>>78146896
Because Joe Queseada Has filthy, dirty desires that he can only sate through writing comics, lest he get hauled off by the Party Van.
>>78146896
That's the standard go-to secondary backstory for female antiheroes for Marvel and Dc.
>>78146896
It was either sexual abuse, or pregnancy. And Kitty Pride already did the unwanted pregnancy thing.
>>78154793
She wasn't abused though, she was a voluntary prostitute with no coercion.
>>78146896
Because this conversation happened at Marvel
>Joe Quesada: X-Men Evolution is really popular and that X-23 character is doing great. We're thinking of bringing her into the comics.
>Craig Kyle: Wow, that's great!
>JQ: There is one condition, though.
>CK: What is it?
>JQ: [Sweating, licking his disgusting lips] She has to be a prostitute.
>CK: Wh... what? That doesn't... She's only like 14.
>JQ: [Literally slobbering over his drawings of X-23 in lingerie] She has. To be. A prostitute.
>CK: Really? Are you sure this is the only way?
>JQ: [Moaning as his pants become stained with semen]
>CK: O-okay then.
>>78149906

Joe Quesada is a great writer and editor, you nerds are tarnishing his name
>>78156695
You're right, what are we doing?
Joey Q doesn't need our help tarnishing his good name, he does that just fine by himself.
>>78147915
This, and it makes me so happy that waifufags get upset about it.
>>78146896
Because dark back stories are what hacks included when they don't know how to write or develop a character.
Back stories are supposed to explain why a character is the way they are, not be a substitute for having a personality.
>>78155110
>She wasn't abused though
except her whole life before turning tricks.
>>78146896
>What does it actually add to her character?
It allows artists to draw images of her in skanky clothing without getting as much criticism for it, which is their fetish.
>>78158115
This
>>78146896
No point beyond giving the writer a boner.
No.
Nothing.
>>78149022
But she isn't pure in heart, anon.
>>78156695
Joe Quesada is a monster.
>>78156695
A lot of anons hate him for unshackling Pete from Hot Redheaded Girl #36081
>>78151006
It doesn't work.
Is there fan art of X23 being a prostitute?
