It's the Mary Kay of the comics industry.

The character has appeared in 45 issues. Longer than any Marvel series run before a reboot.

Makeup has been used since at least the ancient Egyptians.  So gathering a team of speculators for the sales of Mary Kay cosmetics must be an even better idea.

LOL...all aside though, Honey Badgers, Wolverines, Mongoose and the whole of the Badger family, are all quite fearsome/tough/stout mammals that should not be toyed with 'methinks

No clue what this means. You're saying 45 appearances is a farce made up by Mary Kay to sell more clawsmetics?

I don’t actually read this book, but have seen a few comments around from people who read All-New Wolverine and the new X-Men Red that Gabby (Honey Badger) is a good character and her and X-23 really play well off eachother. I assume the spec is that if X-23 continues to grow in popularity, so will Gabby / Honey Badger.

Yup. Honey Badgers don’t mess about.  Straight for the privates.

Thankfully, I doubt we’ll see that in a mainstream Marvel comic, unless Garth Ennis starts writing the book, in which case I’d expect an emasculation on the first page.

I'm saying speculation sites that are creating a horde of speculators who just march around trying to sell nothing special comics for the price of special comics are just like multi-level marketing schemes that only make money for the people at the top.  It's fine that a character has 45 appearances, but if the comic wasn't standing out in the market before the horde of speculators, it's a market built on sand.  Those speculators move on, and who's left holding the books?  Mary Kay is a good example of multi-level marketing, but a better metaphor for speculator websites is locusts.
