X-23: The Complete Collection, Vol. 1 by Felipe Andrade, Craig Kyle, Jay Faerber, Marjorie Liu, Mike Choi, Francis Portela, Christopher Yost, Billy Tan
3.0
X-23 (2005) #1-6 -- 4 stars
X-23: Target X #1-6 -- 4 stars
Captain Universe/X-23 #1 -- 2.5 stars
X-23 (2010 One-Shot) -- 2 stars
X-23 (2010) #1-3 -- 3 stars
Rounded up, I give the overall collection 3 stars.
The first two arcs (Laura's origin stories) were excellent and I really enjoyed them. The remaining collection was meh, though it ended on a higher note with the Killing Dream arc.
I'm a bit disappointed that nothing from NYX or X-Force was included. I appreciate that there were some textual interludes that explained these parts of X-23/Laura's life, but it would've been much more satisfying to just read them imo (and this is supposed to be the "complete" collection after all). I'm curious if there was a particular reason why these weren't and/or couldn't be included.
