That is what makes X-Factor such a joy to read. It all flows naturally and never feels pushed at all. I think she knows stuff.įor such a short issue, David tackles what he needs to: Rahne’s and Feral’s past, Shatterstar’s humour, Rictor’s concerns of Shatterstar’s whereabouts and Layla being Layla. If that isn’t enough, Layla has gone banana’s at the base and is putting symbols as wards on the doors and windows. $2.99įeral’s back from the dead but still dead! If that isn’t enough to intrigue you into the story, then I don’t know what will.Ĭontinuing from last months cliffhanger, both Shatterstar and Wolfsbane are on the run from Feral – who is being used by a being of immense power – to anchor demons amongst other paranormal creatures to kill Wolfsbane. Peter David (writer), Dennis Calero (pencils, inks), Brian Reber (colours), Cory Petit (letters), David Yardin (cover). I was especially involved in the War and Realm of Kings stories, so I’m very excited to see how Black Bolt’s return will play a role in those current plots.

I love the Inhumans and have always followed them on their journeys. That, and Black Bolt is apparently returning for issue #6.

Although Romita Jr’s art was superb in this issue – and the idea behind the story is great – I’ve grown tired of Bendis’ execution.Īs for another turn of events, you may remember my first review of FF #1 back in March, but I’ve decided to pick the series up again (in lieu of The Avengers). I’m also tired of hearing the same voices for each character. I’m tired of the same “Block Pages” in each story. Although I don’t particularly feel the need to review Avengers #14 entirely, all I will say is I’m going to be dropping the series after the Fear Itself arc. A new week of comics have came along! This also includes the premiere of the new maxiseries, Alpha Flight, and some superb storytelling in Peter David’s X-Factor.
