In Psylocke, a woman trained from childhood to be a weapon seeks to protect children from mutant traffickers.
In Laura Kinney: Wolverine, a woman created in a lab to be a weapon seeks to protect young mutants from being exploited by the criminal underworld.
In Magik, a woman trained from childhood to be a (magical) weapon seeks to protect young mutants from being kidnapped by dark (magical) forces.
We’ll save the deeper examination of what this means for a more appropriate venue, but, to paraphrase a meme, if I had a nickel for every time a young woman trained from childhood sought to protect young mutants from harm, I’d have three nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened thrice.
