* IKnewIt: ''Hunt for Wolverine'' confirms the long-held theory that Sarah Kinney contributed to Laura's genetic makeup, making Sarah and Logan Laura's biological parents. This also explains why Laura has a different eye color than her supposed genetic template.

* TheOtherDarrin: In ''WesternAnimation/XMenEvolution'' she was originally voiced by Creator/AndreaLibman, then by Brittney Irvin. In [[WesternAnimation/WolverineAndTheXMen later]] [[VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3 adaptations]] she's voiced by Creator/TaraStrong. In other words, she's [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Pinkie Pie/Fluttershy, Lightning Dust, and Twilight Sparkle]], respectively.

* AscendedFanon: It's quite popular fanon that Sarah Kinney used her own DNA to complete Laura's genetic code, using the idea that her off-book project meant she couldn't access the Facility's normal resources. ''Adamantium Agenda'' #4 confirms that at least the former was indeed the case: Laura is truly the genetic daughter of Sarah and Logan, ''not'' Logan's genetic clone.

* WordOfGod:Marjorie Liu's explanation for the ending of x-23 #19, in which [[spoiler: Laura tells Julian that she doesn't feel anything for him is that Laura has essentially outgrown their relationship]]. Fans...[[FanDislikedExplanation tend not to agree]]. However it has less to do with the point of view of the author than it does with the execution of the scene — which was found to be rushed by many, to the point some people think that it was an editorial mandate — and that many find the characterization of both Laura and [[spoiler: Julian]] to be unusually poor (''especially'' the latter).

CreatorBacklash: Craig Kyle is known for this with developments that run against what he claimed he intended for X-23. For example, in response to the RetCon mentioned under AscendedFanon above, he Tweeted a splash page from a [[Comicbook/CerebusTheAardvark Dave Sim]]-penned issue of ''Comicbook/{{Spawn}}'' critical of how Marvel and DC handle characters in defiance of the creators' wishes.

* TrollingCreator: How some viewed Craig Kyle's remarks that Laura's "true" orientation is gay and that it's a direction he would take her if he had control of her story, given that they very closely follow other remarks interpreted as critical of other developments in the character (see CreatorBacklash above).

Reread the source, and I think this is more accurate; Kyle only said that he WOULD out her, not that they had plans to originally.

** At one point it was reported that Laura would be appearing in Christopher Yost's ''Comicbook/AmazingXMen''. Unfortunately for fans frustrated by her depiction in ''All-New X-Men'' and thrilled at the thought of seeing one of her creators write her again, it turned out this was reported in error and it was never planned for her to appear.

* CreatorBreakdown: Marjorie Liu admitted to going through a stretch of difficult personal issues during the latter parts of her ''X-23'' ongoing (including while writing the "Misadventures in Babysitting" arc). As this included the dissolution of Laura's [[WillTheyOrWontThey frielationship]] with Hellion it led to some questioning of whether this directly influenced the book itself.
* FanNickname: X-Verine, since the announcement by Marvel she would be taking up Logan's cowl as Wolverine.
