Remember when we warned you about the shocking twist involving Madrox's baby? Remember when the return of Shatterstar wound up making every comics-related website? Well, that was just a warm-up for the shocking end of this issue. X-Factor gets a new client, a tall green-garbed woman with a deadly secret, but that's just a set-up for the jaw-dropping final page that's going to reignite the Internet and have fandom going, "Did you BELIEVE what happened at the end of X-Factor #207?!"

so is Peter David just going to be going for shock endings and unseen twists now to keep interest?

 

[Generation Lee]

Ah don't say that remeber he had to acknoweldge Nation X and Second Comming so his plan gets deverted slightly hell I'm still waiting on them to be to go to Detective Agency of the MU lol.

We have to know what happened baby Sean come on and besides most of his twists are fresh and shocking. This book is the one I'm looking forward to the most post SC.

You still hatin' on this book sucka?

 

[OutcryX]

nah..just PAD. i love the cast of this book..minus Siryn, Jamie..and Layla. wouldn't mind seeing another writer take charge of the rest of the group though..kill those three off

 

[Colossal Spoons]

I can part with Siryn and Layla, but Jamie's the best man

 

[Jennifer Walters]

How can someone hate Peter David. When has the guy ever written anything bad? Like never.

Then again Outcry has seemingly terrible taste, so.

I wish he let Monet go so someone else could use her. She's my favorite Gen Xer but I cant get into this book

 

[Jennifer Walters]

Wow. I stand corrected. Just wow. You want Peter David to let go of a character, he's done nothing but good for? Geez, you guys have like no taste at all.

 

[El Bastardo]

Well, that was one hell of an issue. About time.

Though I hope that, if David does keep up with a split team, he actually finds his stride in terms of pacing this time.

Howling Mad..one of the worst novels I have ever read.

this is why i cant stand Peter David

 

[squeekness]

Maybe he hadn't quite found his stride yet. He's been wonderful on this, at least on issues that weren't crossovers.

X-FACTOR #208
Written by PETER DAVID
Penciled by EMANUELA LUPACCHINO
Cover by DAVID YARDIN
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.
32 PGS./Rated T+ …$2.99

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Very pleased that Rahne is coming back to the team

 

[Jennifer Walters]

So how kickass was that Darwin moment? Who knew Darwin had that in him?

 

[Generation Lee]

I loved that Darwin moment really liked that each one stepped up and did their bit.

 

[Specter313]

Yeah, I think PAD is going to really do wonders for Darwin's character, especially after that scene. Same as how he really took such a blank slate that was just some throwaway deus ex machina at the end of House of M like Layla, and turn her into one of the more complex characters around these days.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

I found this issue to be a bit boring actually. Enjoyed Darwin though

X-FACTOR #209
Written by PETER DAVID
Penciled by EMANUELA LUPACCHINO
Cover by DAVID YARDIN
It may happen in Vegas, but it's very likely not going to stay there as X-Factor in general--and Longshot in particular--are unleashed on the Las Vegas strip, determined to face down the goddess of death in her lair and save a very unusual client…
32 PGS./Rated T+ …$2.99

 

[Jennifer Walters]

Gugh. I hate Layla and Jamie's ''M" Tattoos. They remind me of Bishop and reminding me of Bishop is NEVER a good thing.

 

[Generation Lee]

I like the M marks but to me it depends on the artist drawing them, I like the idea of them especially as SC is happening at the minute.

 

[Manic]

The M tattoo helps differentiate Butterfly from the 10,000 other blondes on the X-teams who otherwise look just like her.

 

[Specter313]

That and her striped socks.
