    This is not who you prefer, rather, which current book is better and why?

    I think I preferred Daken when Marjorie Liu was involved... X-23 on the other hand... still has her... and Sana Takeda and now Phil Noto... so... plus Laura has the advantage of having a few more X-Characters show up (if your a Gambit fan then...)

    I dont like Daken as a character so it kind of colours how much of his stories ill read. I personally prefer X-23s stuff, i like seeing the familiar characters she come accross.

    I love both. I love seeing Gambit regularly and the art is amazing in X-23. I find Daken more interesting and the art is great and works well with the character.  
     
    These 2 books are some of the regular books I collect so I am a fan of both.

    I feel like x-23 is the more interesting character. 
     
    edit: despite some stereotypical "abused runaway prostitute" backstory. Her supporting cast of young x-men and various mentors has made up for that.

    i liked Daken's comic more until he got to L.A. and lost his healing ability (supposedly) It just seems dumb first they take away his 3rd claw covered in the metal of the muramasa blade, now they take away his healing so he cant even use his remaining claws. Now all he has is his pheromones and he seems like he is going insane worried he is an animal like his father.


    Currently x-23 is better

    Daken....not that it's really all that great of a book...it's just that I really dislike the art on X-23....it's just so "mangaish" and I just can't get into that

    X-23, though now that the FF are going to be running through it's pages (along with something else) I might just drop it.

    I prefer Daken as a character, but I've been enjoying X-23's book a great deal, especially now with Noto on board.

    I prefer X-23 series. more. However, during the Collision crossover with the two, I understood Daken more character-wise than I have with him in the past.

    Personally I like Sana Takeda's art, but what did you think of the art on the series around the first story arc?
     
    Honestly I've only read a few issues of Daken since I just never liked the character nor cared for him, but I've been loving what Liu is doing with Laura and have been enjoying the book since issue one.

    I definitely like Will Conrad's art better than Sana Takeda's

    X-23, but she's had more time to develop too. 
     
    I still love Daken as a character though.

    I personally prefer Daken as a character and his book as well. He is a pure badass, awesome manipulator, very cunning and has a killer fashion sense ;)  
    I did love the Collision storyline which featured both characters plus Gambit! :D

    I only liked daken during the x-23 crossover, then lost interest very quickly he's too much of a arrogant deuce for my taste 
     
    I prefer x-23 both as a character and as an ongoing(now that it's hitting it's stride minus the ff side story)
