X-Factor #5 delivers an entertaining blend of humor and action with some intriguing twists, but its reliance on uneven gags and lack of significant progress leaves the issue feeling somewhat underwhelming. Read Full Review
Another good issue, but at some point I need to see a stable team. Too many random deaths won’t exactly help getting readers to care about these characters.
The conflict is resolved a little too easily, but at least we get to see Polaris wield her awesome powers.
While this was good and entertaining for what it was, this was also another of this run's weakest issues, unfortunately. There are definitely some good moments, but there are others that fall just a little flat, at least for me. Hopefully this title can get back on track soon, as I was fairly interested in it when it started.
