Comics Official X-FACTOR Discussion Thread

[Havok83]

I thought that what was making Rhane so sick in the crossover was that the baby was Asgardian, which was why her wolf lover had to give up his life to Hela in order for the baby to survive. It was a "supernatural" pregnancy. It couldn't be Rictor's.

Oh it was written as a supernatural pregnancy, but I think it was left open ended enough for Hela to have done something off panel to mess with the pregnancy and put the wolf prince in a position where he would feel forced to sell his soul to her.

 

[squeekness]

Maybe.

What's the single most-asked question we've been getting at X-Factor Central? Will Wolfsbane, cut adrift from X-Force, return to X-Factor? The answer is a resounding "yes." But how is she going to react when she discovers that Rictor and Shatterstar are a couple? Not all that well as Shatterstar finds himself in the fight of his life. And how will Rictor react when he discovers that Rahne is pregnant? What, you want us to tell you everything? We have to leave SOMEthing for you to discover for yourself in what is sure to be the most-talked about X-book of the month, if not the year.



God I love Layla.

 

[Manic]

I can't figure out if Layla somehow still knows stuff, or if she's just really observant and able to guess how things will turn out now.

Also, that little liar. Jamie's been all up in her brier patch.

 

[Generation Lee]

Pricless dialogue between her and Strong Guy.

 

[Manic]

It's a tie between Raimondi and DeLandro.

Stroman can kick rocks. His art on this title was absolutely terrible and almost made me drop the book.

 

[Kevin]

It will always be Sook for me.

 

[squeekness]

Pricless dialogue between her and Strong Guy.

The dialogue is the best part about this book. It has a lot of wit and pop that I wish the other books would have.

 

[Jennifer Walters]

Unfortunately for the other books, Peter David is only one man. Isn't all his time pretty much devoted to X-Factor anyways though?

 

[squeekness]

I don't know that he's not doing other books for someone else, but this is the only X title he's working on.

 

[Jennifer Walters]

Last I heard of him doing two books is when he took over for Slott when he left She-Hulk.

 

[squeekness]

It's possible. I don't read any of the Hulk books so I wouldn't know.

 

[Generation Lee]

The dialogue is the best part about this book. It has a lot of wit and pop that I wish the other books would have.

I have to agree even when the storyline may seem poor with dialogue just grabs me from start to finish. Hell the Rictor/Shatterstar relationship talk had me laughing my head off in the last issue.

 

[squeekness]

I just love the two of them together. I hope that relationship sticks around for a while.

 

[Nature's Rising]

LOL love love love now Rahne is in the scene. Amazing and funny dialog between Layla and Guido.

 

[squeekness]

I just hope she doesn't hurt Shatterstar too badly.

 

[Manic]

Oh god, I just realized Rahne's pregnancy has just been carried over to X-Factor. Fear for her child.

 

[Jennifer Walters]

This is why once a character gets pregnant in comics they should set out in limbo until the baby is born.

 

[Manic]

If you get pregnant in a Marvel comic, lie low until the baby is born.

If you get pregnant in a DC comic, the kid will be completely safe until it's born.

 

[Havok83]

If she could be pregnant and survive in X-force of all places, I think she has a shot at having a safe pregnancy here...lol

 

[Manic]

It's not her I'm worried about. It's the baby. Remember what happened the last time someone got knocked up in this title.

 

[Havok83]

I think the baby will be born probably bc of what happened the last time. She looks pretty far along and I dont see a miscarriage happening here. The baby will most likely be some demon child and a future villian. I dont see her getting to raise it

 

[Manic]

Of course not. Nobody on the X-teams ever gets to raise their children. They get kidnapped, sent to the future, turned into villains, and rapidly aged to adulthood.
