100% Marvel: Emma Frost #2

In "Problemas laborales," Emma Frost faces her first real test of independence when she struggles to keep afloat after losing job after job. Desperate, she tries to trick a restaurant into thinking a piece of paper is a hundred-dollar bill—only to get caught and end up scrubbing dishes, where she bonds with the seasoned dishwasher, Troy. When Troy’s past catches up with him in the form of two menacing goons demanding ten grand, Emma finds herself unexpectedly drawn into his world.

In "Vaya suerte," Emma Frost and Troy find themselves in a high-stakes gamble when they use Emma’s mind powers to win $10,000 at a poker game—only to be blackmailed by a thug demanding another $5,000 by morning. Desperate, they return to the casino, where Emma’s abilities falter against the randomness of other games, drawing the attention of security. With their escape route to New York in sight, they’re intercepted by Milo and Stu before they can vanish.

In "Un plan sencillo," a desperate man schemes to extort money from Emma Frost’s father by faking her kidnapping, using a staged video to demand $250,000. When the message reaches Winston Frost, his chilling response offers no mercy—only cold approval for his daughter’s death.

In "Trapos sucios," Adrienne’s desperate gamble with the ransom video ignites a media firestorm, forcing Winston to confront the consequences of his choices. With Troy dead and the situation spiraling, the fragile hope of saving his daughter hangs in the balance.

With her mind awakening to dangerous new powers, she must navigate betrayal and violence to survive—turning the tables on her captors and seizing a chance at a new beginning in New York.
