Comics Official X-FACTOR Discussion Thread

[Havok83]

That cat fight still doesn't make any sense to me. A few issues back, Emma started complaining about Scott not treating her like his co-leader, so Storm suggested Emma start acting like a leader. Now Storm's all pissed off because she doesn't see why Emma is in a leadership position. Same writer, 10 issue gap. Figure that one out.

made no sense bc of how random it was. If Storm is so upset about Emma in a leadership position, why doesnt she stand up and actually be a leader again? For the longest time she was THE leader and now she's like a foot soldier obeying her commands. I dont care much for Emma as a leader but if Storm isnt willing to take on that role for herself (and she's more than capable of it), then she needs to sit down and fall back bc she only made herself look petty and silly in that scene

X-FACTOR #50
Written by PETER DAVID
Penciled by VALENTINE DE LANDRO
Cover by DAVID YARDIN
Worlds and times collide in this double-sized conclusion to the year long storyline that has revitalized X-Factor. Will the Summers Rebellion triumph as is supposed to happen...or will it be derailed? Will Madrox make it back to his own time? Will Siryn, Monet and the rest of the team have their final showdown with Cortex? Will we actually learn just how it is that Layla Miller knows stuff? Will someone die? The answer to at least some of these questions is: Yes.
48 PGS./Rated T+ ...$3.99

I just love this book. I can't wait to read this issue. Looks great.

 

[Gilpesh]

Alright. That issue was ****ing insane. And it looks like I will be continuing to buy it even though it is changing a few things up.

 

[squeekness]

I was quite pleased with it even though it lacked enough Shatterstar/Rictor action. Just sayin'.

 

[Jennifer Walters]

I don't like Layla's origins, that was my only gripe with the issue.

''OH I CAN'T RESURRECT PEOPLE THEY HAVE NO SOULS" (Lame excuse to give her this continuity/story breaking power and never use it.)

Then the way she came to ''know stuff." was just lame. Otherwise good issue.

hmm, I actually loved the explanation as to how/why she knows things. I look forward to the next story!

 

[squeekness]

I didn't mind it either, but it doesn't explain how she can retain every single detail. Most people do forget things over time anyhow.

 

[OutcryX]

what was the explanation? wait...WHY is Layla Miller even relevant?

 

[Gilpesh]

Oh god. That X guy came out from under his rock to ***** about X-Factor more.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Nobody tell him

Layla got kinda messed up for me this week too, not diggin her power or her origin.

 

[Mike555]

First issue of X-Factor for me and i am really consedring not buying the next issue.

Well, this was prob not a good issue to start with. This series is prob the best Marvel has. Start from the beginning, its worth it.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Yeah, not sure why you tried to hop on at the conclusion of a story arc, especially one that involves time traveling.

 

[chris moore]

Did all seem a little outta left field for Layla. Plus she appears to be on the double page spread for the next issue - and not her younger self either

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Yeah, it should be interesting to see how her older self joins the team

 

[squeekness]

Other than being totally implausible, I didn't really mind it all.

 

[Manic]

Oh, I've got to know. Why does she know stuff?

 

[Specter313]

Oh, I've got to know. Why does she know stuff?

Well, if ya haven't read the issue yet:

Spoiler

When Layla and Jamie time travel back from the future, Jamie ends up in the present in front of the team, but Layla ends up going all the way back to before she met the team, and tells her younger self about everything, but also zaps her with something that downloads all the knowledge she gained into her brain. But because of the sheer amount of info, the normal brain can't take it, so there were some gaps in the knowledge, hence the various things she didn't know about.

 

[Manic]

So in other words, Layla's knowledge is a paradox?

 

[OutcryX]

that is plausible. thanks spec...and Spoons...dude..we poseta b boys yo.

 

[OutcryX]

Oh god. That X guy came out from under his rock to ***** about X-Factor more.

wasnt *****ing about xfactor i was questioning Layla and her relevance period. no rocks. calm yourself

 

[Gilpesh]

Layla and her relevance period.

No need to talk about that time of the month for her.

 

[Generation Lee]

You know I always liked Lyla knowing stuff but I don't like how she does it. OK I know she was a plot device to undo HOM but seriously with the 2nd comming her power just could have been based in probability. I saw her like Trance from Andromeda who saw all the timelines there could be and tried to make sure that they wouldn't happen lets face it she had a different power in HOM yes u could say that was the pwoer she really truely wanted I don't know but this download just feels wrong.

BTW in the 200 preview Strong Guy's skin is darker!!!!!! A darker skinned character I was shocked since everyon'e going down the MJ road.

 

[squeekness]

You guys make me laugh, all this joking about skin color.
