WHAT WILL HAPPEN WHEN CYCLOPS AND HAVOK COLLIDE, the solicit blurb asks.
Well, if it’s like any of the other times, nothing. Their powers cancel each other out. Every trading card has told us this. They’ll switch to fists for a little bit, get tired of that and eventually move to the last resort of every superhero: talking through their problems.
But of course, this is a comic book, so violence must be the first stratagem.
Anyway, this is apparently the 300th issue of X-Factor via legacy numbering, so congratulations to everyone’s favorite fake mutant hunters-turned government agents-turned private investigators-turned corporate troubleshooters-turned Krakoan medical examiners-turned government agents again. You sure do love having jobs!
