X-Men - Part 1

[Anubis]

He doesn't like good comics.

 

[Havok83]

You should have been all along!

X-factor...not my cup of tea, but I will have to reconsider at least giving it a try. Even Monet, couldnt keep me on that and she was my fave from Gen X. I hope Havok's inclusion means the book gets a revamp bc it seems too lowkey for him. Im interested to see what change he will bring if any. Kinda upset he wont be sticking around in Legacy

Schism is what causes all those new comics in November

 

[joshthesmart]

oh ok

 

[Manic]

Peter David is still writing X-Factor, right? Prepare to see Alex fight crime and solve personal cases while dressed in casual urban gear.

Dude why aren't you reading Schism its awesome. One of the best X-comics in years for me.

Wolverine and Cyclops relationship and dialogue in the first issue alone makes it worth picking up.

Seeing Wolverine tired and worn out from being on so many different teams (some on Marvel actually acknowledging that)

Wolverine cracking jokes about how he said the X-Men should of moved to Canada. Quentin Quire (Kid Omega) from Grant Morrissons run showing up and causing some mayhem.

Wolverine picking up a new teenage girl sidekick.

The Hellfire Club being homicidal 11 year olds who mudered their own familes. They are like the kind of kids The Pride wished The Runaways turned out like.

Emma Frost snapped a 11 year old hellfire brats little finger which is the most gangsta thing she has done since murdering her own sister.

Wilhemina is Drusilla from Buffy as a girl.

Also Magneto got owned Kade kilgore who talked to him in away no one has ever talked to him.

I'm not sure myself what Cyke and Logan are supposedly so upset about and I'm hoping that when they throw down it's over something more interesting than.....Logan likes kiddies now?

 

[Manic]

I wonder if Scott's views about Idie killing those people is skewed by not only Scott's recent harsher approach to fighting his enemies, but also the fact that Scott was dragged into this life as a kid.

One thing I've noticed lately (and I can only wonder if the writers did this on purpose) is that all of the original 5 X-Men are in pieces. I don't just mean that they're broken up as a group. I mean Jean is going through a cycle of deaths and rebirths while coping with a cosmic entity, Warren is trying to control his darker half, Bobby is disillusioned and pretty much hopeless (Fraction wrote him as uncharacteristically nihilistic shortly after the team moved to Utopia), Hank got fed up and left, and now Scott is taking more extreme measures. It's like the burden of protecting the people who hate them while also serving as models for the rest of the mutant race was way too damn much for a bunch of kids to handle, and now they're all cracking in their 30's. Bobby's even going out of his way to tell the new kids that they'll never be as good as his original class all the time.

Frankly, I'd love to see a story arc that explores the psychological issues the Original 5 have been coping with all these years.

X-Factor will be siding with Wolverine with Havok on the team.

Oh, Thank god, and I'm not even mad about the change up. Just give me Jamie.

Writers do things on purpose?

I thought writers had no clue and it was only blind luck when they actually did something right.

 

[Kevin]

X-factor isn't a sure buy yet. Looking at that Cover we have Havoc, Strong Guy, Rictor, Female Banshee, and one of the wolf girls. Also, maybe Monet or Layla.

That's all I can make out and That doen't make me too happy. We know someone is supposed to die which means, Monet, Layla, shatterstar, longshot, or Jamie.

 

[Anubis]

Tecnhnically, Strong Guy already died.

It happens on rare occasions. For example, Cyclops became an intense a-hole across all of the X-titles at the same time.

 

[Kevin]

Lol, yes, which is why he still has a story. He should be evil at some point now.

I'm pretty sure that he/she has already had the operation to get rid of it.

 

[Anubis]

No she hasn't.

 

[hippie_hunter]

Then I stand corrected.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Awesome that Havok's coming back to X-Factor. I can't wait to see what PAD does with him again.

 

[JewishHobbit]

Well that's the first interesting thing to come to X-Factor since it hit 200. I'm not expecting it to really improve for me though because I love EVERY character in the book and I still find it incredibly dull.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

I'm glad he's finally back on Earth

 

[JewishHobbit]

Me too. I just wish he was on an X-Men team other than X-Factor.
