I'm interested to see just where this title will go next, because David hasn't truly set the new status quo yet, as the past fwe issues have seen it jumbled and in flux. He's got my interest piqued, and I can't wait to see what he decides to do with these characters next, and if well see more of Mordo and that plot development. Recommended! Read Full Review

The silver lining to this just-average issue of X-Factor is that, as always, David is keeping one eye on the future of his title. This issue gives readers a few developments to keep in mind as the characters move forward, and ultimately leaves this team in a better place than they began. Fans can at least be thankful for that.

I appreciate that David and the mutant office tried to logically bring "X-Factor" into "Second Coming" as best they could, but now that it's over I think it might've just been better to ignore it entirely. (After all, if you're going to recognize X-Factor running around, it's hard to not also note that "Second Coming" targeted all the teleporters but somehow missed Shatterstar. Considering he uses his power in this very issue, that's a rather large plotting blind spot.) This reminded me much more of the lackluster "X-Factor" we had about nine months ago, and that's not the kind of memory this book should try and evoke in its readers. I expect better than this.
