X-Factor #233 (Spoilers)

[PSB]

And we're back! Not that I didn't find Madrox's dimension jumping interesting, but I was really looking forward to the new team dynamic now that Havok and Polaris were (back) in the mix. This was definitely one of those in between arc that sets up the somewhat changed status quo. I wonder if Jamie and Layla are going to leave the team temporarily now that it looks like X-Factor is in good hands, leadership wise. Great to have Leonard Kirk back! And the Isolationist is back after how many years?

What did everyone else think?

I think Valerie Cooper is a bitch. And not in a cool way.

I'm writing up a review for this now. Simply put:

X-FACTOR Woop!

I dug it. I liked how Havok was quick to defend Madrox even though Alex is probably a much better leader. I'm looking forward to the new dynamic. Oh and Yardin's cover rocked my socks off.

I'm running out of new ways to express the fantastic-osity of this book. The mission was a great way to show off the new dynamics of the team. I'm glad they're not completely rearranging things, but just tweaking them a bit with the new characters.

I don't think Madrox & Layla will leave the team, but I wouldn't be surprised to see them working cases on their own like they've done in the past.

"Alex? Lorna? They're in charge now? It's just... that seems to have come from out of nowhere."

Such a badass cover. Heavy contender for the next Month in X album art.

agreed. also, i was surprised as i'm only slightly paying attention to this book every couple months or so, but i enjoyed it more than a lot of the other x-books.

Great issue, as a MASSIVE Havok and Polaris fan it's great to FINALLY have them back in a title again. Great team dynamics. Peter David shows once again how to write a team book. My only real issue is the story for the most part felt kinda throw away. Something slipped in there just to get us to the next point, but Peter David's throw away stories have a tendency to be on par with some other writers everyday, so it's all good.
