Marvel fans are upset with the X-23 skin and its treatment in Fortnite

Laura Kinney, aka X-23, is a fictional character who appears in the Marvel comics based on the X-Men series. While she was made as a clone of Wolverine, the latter adopted her as a daughter figure. Similar to Logan, X-23 also has retractable adamantium bone claws in her hands as well as feet.

As part of the collaboration with Marvel, Fortnite also released an X-23 skin in the game recently under a new update. The character has got a revamped costume altogether without the iconic mask from the comics. Moreover, the claws are also nowhere to be seen, which is quite strange, given her lineage with Wolverine and being an X-Men herself.

It looks like fans couldn’t accept this change with one of their most favorite comic book characters. As soon as the new skin was revealed in Fortnite, most of the players wasted no time in dropping their reactions.
