What would you want from a Dawn of X relaunch of X-Factor?

[Hybrid]

I feel like a huge missing title from the initial announcements for Dawn of X is a new X-Factor. However, I also expect to see it later, because it just makes too much sense, so let's discuss what we'd like from a new X-Factor title.

Here's what I want:

• Written by Chip Zdarsky
• Drawn by Daniel Acuna
• Plot is a revamp of X-Factor Investigations, focusing on mutant and anti-mutant crimes around the world, and investigating anything that might be suspicious, while reporting to Krakoa in-between operations.
• Features a good balance between established veterans and new recruits.

Lineup (veterans)

• Multiple Man
• Strong Guy
• Siryn
• Longshot
• Penance (Monet)

Lineup (newcomers)

• Ricochet (from the Slingers)
• Prodigy
• Surge
• Daytripper

That's just my idea. What would you like from a new X-Factor series? Discuss.

just dump in all the characters that for some reason missed out on wave 1, give them some insane plots and I’m there

I like the idea of relaunching XFI, but I would keep it in Krakoa, with them acting as law enforcement/investigation squad. With all the "former" villians now habitating the island it would be a necessity. It would also let us see the inner workings of life on Krakoa.

oooh this made me kind of want x-factor as a “villain book” like what are sinister, exodus, selene, etc. up to on krakoa.....a concept

Nightcrawler's American embassy team.

I want Kylun, I'll probably get Archangel.

Maybe. I just imagine X-Factor as being like the Krakoa detective agency, operating in some kind of secret in the best interests of both Krakoa and the world.

i want the mutant version of the Thunderbolts. specifically, it would be a roster of mutants who have been found guilty of crimes against Krakoa or mutants in general. and they'd be forced to carry out missions on behalf of Krakoa; to pay their debts. i know that this is usually set aside for 'X-Force.' but i'm looking at the other titles. and the names seem to be mostly ceremonial.

i guess it could also deal with whatever organization is charged with tracking down mutants who haven't made it to Krakoa. there are a lot of non-US-based mutants who have probably fallen through the cracks.

No PAD.
No Madrox.
No Layla.
No Havok.

I want to die.

And I want a completely new premise + Sinister + tubby

If Polaris is in main cast, then her leading it. Shouldn't be a team member if someone else is leading, especially since ANXF didn't really get a chance while Peter David was course correcting. Otherwise, I don't really care what happens with it.

No Havok, that's it

I'm only interested in X-Factor as Investigations. Madrox and Layla, of course. A year ago I would have lobbied to have PAD back, but now I only want new voices. There's plenty of decent choices available.

Think Zdarsky could do it well?

Hmm, well, yes, Zdarsky is great, but that kinda feels like type-casting him after Howard the Duck and Daredevil.
