Most lecturer presume that Domino ’s unparalleled black - and - white coloration and the typical mark around her center were a side - event of her variation . sure enough many mutants in theMarvel Comicsworld acquired alone strong-arm alterations or had their skin modification color when when their power first manifested . However , a flashback inDomino # 3- the latest issue of Neena ’s solo amusing book series - let out the dark truth behind her scrape .
The flashback reveals that a ten - class - erstwhile Neena was given a kitten during her time in captivity . Originally presented as a birthday present , it was really think to give her captor additional leverage over her , help them to force a trauma that would make her mutant power manifest more readily . As one scientist , Dr. Rossini , threaten the kitten with a taser , the scientist holding the kitten ( who it turned out was allergic to cat ) suffered a sneezing fit that knocked him off - balance and into Dr. Rossini , who accidentally appall him with the taser .
As Dr. Rossini called for a medic for his co-worker , he also instructed the guards to take Neena and brand her , like all the other tryout - subjects whose mutant force had been confirm . When asked if they should come in the brand between her articulatio humeri sword like the other subjects , Rossini replied that he wanted Neena ’s face to be branded so that she would call up what she did every time she looked in a mirror from that daylight onwards !
The theme that Domino ’s far-famed " birthmark " is actually a brand name meant to frustrate her is a shocking conceitedness . Such twisted fare is common for author Gail Simone , who first found mainstream celebrity as a writer onDeadpool . It ’s out of the question to say what Simone may do with Neena in succeeding progeny of theDominosolo series ' but it ’s certain to be interesting even if it is not quite so rotatory as this issue ’s dark retcon .
