X-FACTOR #212
Written by Peter David
Penciled by Emanuela Lupacchino
Cover by David Yardin
It's time to Ragnarok and roll in Las Vegas, as X-Factor--teamed with everyone's favorite Thunder God--squares off in a high-stakes, winner-take-all throw down with Hela to determine the fate of Pip the Troll. And for one member of the team, it will be the beginning of the end…

 

[squeekness]

I hope it's not Shatterstar. I like him and Rictor together.

 

[Charlie No-One]

It better not be Rictor or Shatterstar. There are not enough gay/bi characters for them to be killed off.

 

[Specter313]

Just so you guys know, PAD hinted at the recent New York Comic Con that just because someone is leaving the team doesn't mean they're leaving the book.

The suicide of a high school student triggers X-Factor's most personal case as X-Factor is hired to learn the identities of the bullies who drove the student to take his own life.

[Colossal Spoons]

Good riddance Darwin. Maybe the next writer to get his hands on you will actually show you using your powers creatively(Nothing against PAD, he just misused the character IMO)

 

[Manic]

PAD said that a character leaving the team doesn't necessarily mean they're leaving the comic. I think Darwin won't really be going anywhere.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Darwin will just have to take a rain check on that "personality"

 

[Manic]

Darwin was at least a little interesting for a while, but he hasn't done anything worth noting since he got seduced by a mind controlled Monet.

 

[squeekness]

I gave up on subscribing for that reason alone. I was tried of my books not only coming heinously late, but being bent in the mail.

 

[squeekness]

Really, you should just try to find a shop nearby and get your books on time each wednesday. You pay more, dont' get me wrong, but I can't stand not having my stuff right when they come out.

It's a battle royale in the streets of Vegas, as Madrox and Longshot discover that sometimes the only thing worse than a plan that doesn't work...is a plan that works all too well. And when that plan is to try and get the attention of a death goddess, and that attention consists of her sending her undead warrior hordes against you, well...what's happening in Vegas may well extend to staying there for eternity…

A man is dead, apparently the victim of a vampire attack. But is it truly some random crime of violence? Or is it, as his daughter believes, an elaborate ruse, designed to draw attention away from the real culprit? And can X-Factor separate fact from fiction?

[Colossal Spoons]

Wow, what Darwin did to Hela this week was beyond awesome. Made no sense even by comic book genetics standards, but I guess when magic is involved, sense goes out the window.

 

[Generation Lee]

I loved it I have to say, it was as if madrox embraced his inner Cyclops lol when that happened.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo. Siryn's the only member I'd be fine with losing. Better not actually be Guido
