Things to know
- The physical book is broader than a Liu-only collection; the project title and mapping preserve that authorship honestly.
- Two anthology issue shells are also cited by Remender’s Uncanny X-Force omnibus, but the actual X-23 and X-Force segments are distinct, so literal story overlap is zero.
