    @daak1212:  If you want the best answers you might have to be a bit more specific. 
     
    X-23: Innocence Lost and Target X explain her life pre-Xavier Institute. 
    NYX shows how she lived on the streets. 
    New X-Men shows her adjusting to life as a "normal" mutant. 
    X-Force shows her in what she does best: fighting and killing. 
    X-23 is her newest run and shows her trying to find who she is. 
     
    The main thing that I can say is DO NOT try any of her issues in Uncanny X-Men 450-460. 
    If you are new to X-23 I would advise trying Target X first then the new series X-23. Target X gives a good background of X-23 before you get into the newer stuff and it has better art then X-23: Innocence Lost and it goes further than Innocence Lost too. 
     
    I hope this helps.

    NYX was a pretty good story that showed how she lived her life on the streets.

    @daak1212: Yeah. The only issue with Childhood's End is that it's out of print. So you can find some of them online, but I think the second part of it is something like 60 bucks for the trade.

    I'd say try the X-23 "Women of Marvel" one-shot for a nice little story with great artwork.  It's honestly what got me into X-23 in the first place. 
    HERE's the Comic Vine profile of it.

    @daak1212: Sorry dude...that is part of my reference collection for fanfic writing >,> lolol 
     
    Try Amazon, I think I saw a few copies up there for not-so-bad-prices. 
     
    http://www.amazon.com/New-X-Men-Childhoods-End-Vol/dp/0785120246
     
    $55 there...still pretty expensive but still better than $155...or you could troll through eBay. I can't believe it's so expensive. I swear I've seen it around a few comic places in the midwest (was on a trip in Iowa). Keep your eyes peeled!

    It was very good, but $55 is expensive, even for a good book.

    Target X is my personal favorite.
    Her stories in Marvel Team-Up were also very enjoyable (actually I loved this whole series, Kirkman never fails to wow me)

    @daak1212: If you have the spare change and were still interested in reading up on her, I'd seriously suggest getting a subscription to Marvel comics. It's something like 4.95/month or 59.98/year and you have access to everything in their digital catalog. This includes pretty much everything that X-23 has ever appeared in.

    This edit will also create new pages on Comic Vine for:
