X-FACTOR #3
LEAH WILLIAMS (W), DAVID BALDEÓN (A), Cover by IVAN SHAVRIN
DROWNING IN THE STREAM!
Every streamer in the Mojoverse is desperate to get a little of the X-magic on their channel, but all X-Factor wants to do is figure out who murdered a Krakoan citizen.
32 pages, $3.99.
How long do you think this book will last?
Everything so far sounds great that i would be shame if it is short.
I hope it last at least 15 issues
How big might the impact of the lockdown be on comic sales for the next two months? That is at this point unclear. A lot is up to how well comic stores can adapt to the situation. There is also the issue of how well the first arc gets people talking online and the kind of buzz that comes out of it and we can't know that either.

I love it. The crew being in such close-quarters will be great, and it'll be interesting seeing how some of them play off against each other. I hope that gives ample opportunity for David Baldeon to use the setting to his advantage and display the living quarters of the team members.
I mean it was only a matter of time until Mojo showed up somewhere. I trust Leah Williams. I wonder if Spiral, Longshot or Shatterstar will cameo here. I suspect Aurora may be the first casualty, prompting Northstars heavy involvement, and her induction into the team afterwards
I hope for a long time. Most of the books seem to be built to last. I think the only thing working against X-Factor is there isn't any A-List characters on the team, as opposed to most of the other X-Books already on the shelf. We'll see what happens, but this is easily my most anticipated title from the second wave of DoX
And lots of new art in the trailer:they’re brought together on a very specific mission in the first issue.
The characters have this fun sense of adventure and wackiness but at the same time they have like a real internal life
There’s not just the main line of investigative services that’s happening there’s also an undercurrent of drama between like who’s hooking up with who and who’s discovering things about themselves as they go through these experiences.
The team goes out into other worlds and other dimensions even.
It has so many unexpected twists because it is kind of based in a procedural mystery format you can follow the breadcrumb trail of clues that are gonna be in the book and if you’re looking closely you’ll be able to spot stuff before the characters themselves figure it out
there’s gonna be some crazy mysteries and it’ll introduce you to the insane world of the x-men.

Be kind, it's FREE
ugh yes yes yes.
im really glad to see lots of juicy panels w/ the Five, I wasn't sure how central they'd actually be to the plot issue to issue but it looks like they're central players so lets goooo
looks like Baldeon worked his ass of to serve atmosphere and it worked. so gloomy and moody without losing its fun - very different vibes and yet what we see here feels cohesive. big props to him
and of course im a big sucker for the mystery angle...shower me in hidden visual cues and I will prosper
And lots of new art in the trailer:

Omg the ART!!!! So gorgeous. Just want Rachel to wear spikes, leather jacket, face tatts and a rat tail!!! I would love to see her interact with Hope. That will be interesting.
he's worried he'll slice him with one of his hella sharp cheekbones . he looks like he could go toe to toe with wolverine
I'm so sucked into this drama with the five already no dialogue necessary. Eva looks maddd and im choosing to read hope sitting wistfully with her warm drink as a sign of angst
Butch Rachel, gays, more worldbuilding, Hope lashing out at ppl yet again... thank u Leah & Baldeon
