I don't erally read Marvel, knowledge of the X-men go as far as the films. However I love the idea of X-23 and wondered what is the best to read to get to know her character and so on? If this was on a Batman thread the things I am ooking for would go along the lines of year one, then hush or long halloween is there an x-23 equivalent?
 
Also the same goes for the X-men, are there any must reads without having to know all there history?
 
Thanks :)

" @AgentOfAnarchy: if you want origins, then first look for Innocence Lost and Target X! that's how I started! "
