Comics Official X-FACTOR Discussion Thread

[JewishHobbit]

Actually, the reprint is probably that they're reprinting either maybe the first issue of X-Factor from way back, or maybe another anniversary issue from the original run, to celebrate the renumbering.

Yeah, but you see... I already paid for those issues once. So now in order for me to get the new story, they're making me pay for them again?! I've said it once and I'll say it again, 2 years time and I see myself out of Marvel comics save for maybe a title or two, and being that I'm an 18, almost 19 year long fan and buy the majority of their mainstream titles every month, that's a heck of a drop.

As soon as Dark Reign ends the dropping begins and I have a feeling it's going to downward spiral from there.

They've been doing that reprint crap for a while now. It makes the issue look bigger and all, but the vast majority of the time, the reprint is something I already have or coudl care less about. All the while they charge extra for that issue. With comic prices getting higher and higher I am a lot fussier about what I buy now.

5) Will M's reaction to Emplate's return be shown in "X-Factor"? As seen in X-Factor's most recent storyline, Monet still hasn't exactly gotten over being "controlled."

They aren't going to be coming in contact this time around, Joshua. Sorry.

6) Will Siryn hear of her father's return in "Necrosha"?

That's really up to Peter David. If he gets a chance to address it in "X-Factor" (if he even wants to do that), he will, I imagine. But knowing his big plans for "X-Factor," I don't think he'll have the room.

I sure hope siryn learns that her daddy is back.

 

[squeekness]

Well, is he back or it just an animated corpse? She wouldn't be too happy if her dear ol' da was a monster.

He's been resurrected with the phalanx t-o virus in him. All resurrections are pretty much bad, but Banshee showed resistance and his own mind... so chances are he'll break the control the t-o virus has over him and will return officially... at least that's what I'm hoping.

Oh, and unlike Blackest Night... he looks normal... not Zombie-like.

actually I think they've done a good job at showing that not all of them are bad. Cypher and Risque also showed resistance. These 3 were actually heroes though with the rest of the resurrected being villians, which is why they've been going along with Selene. I thought these characters would come back as zombies but they've been showing free will and humanity. Even the Hellions had some humor and werent all dark and evil. I think this is being done intentionally bc I think alot of characters will stay for the long run when this story is done.

 

[JewishHobbit]

God I hope so....

LET'S GO! BRING BACK SYNCH!!!!

Legacy is a student book, here's hoping he comes back there

 

[Mike555]

Yes banshee and cypher forever!

 

[Havok83]

Gen X was asked about in a recent inerview and they said there are no current plans to bring back Synch or Skin

 

[JewishHobbit]

You wound me Havok

Risque is back??? hell YES! Jame's(Warpath/Proudstar) one true match!

another thing..though Blink was never shown before she died to be a hero..she heroically sacrificed herself to take out Harvest and save the rest of would-be Gen X....so why is she going along with Selene?

yeah Risque is back and she showed resistance to Selene's control. You'll be glad to know that her scene was with James

I beleive that it was stated somewhere in an interview, that virtually nothing was done with 616 Blink, that she was a blank slate and they could pretty much go anywhere with her. She hasnt been seen since Phalanx Covenant and dont know whats been up with her. I dont think her being allied willingly with Selene is too much of a stretch for that reason.
