There are a lot of reasons why the original x-factor is my favorite X book.
I’m gonna discuss 2 things that are my favorite in the x-factor forever mini-series by Louise Simonson
1)Nowadays we talk a lot about Chimeras & omega level mutants thanks to HoxPox
The book follows Apocalypse & Sinister’s rivalry and schemes of their plans fulfillment
Apocalypse thinks that no mutants come from mutants linage but humans
(Scott Summers is the son of 2 humans , Corsair & Kat Summers) and that baby Christopher isn’t a natural born kid but a chimera created by Sinister (Apocalypse theorized that Scott’s DNA has been tampered with by Sinister & of course Maddie was a clone making Nate a chimera created by sinister and not a natural child)
And Apocalypse thinks that his and Sinister’s actions caused the Celestials to come to Earth and thereby dome humanity as a whole , we also got to see a lot of empty X-men vessels and talks about immortality and how Sinister even have the X-men’s personalities
Reading this after HoxPox makes me feel that HoxPox was planned decades ago considering that most of the retcons in comics history have been messy and most of the time created a lot of continuities errors more than adding to the continuities
2)Jean Grey’s motherhood being explored in this mini in a way that I don’t think we’ve seen in any other comic before or after that mini
Also this kinda ended the debate about Jean’s motherhood to Nate being a Step-parenting or real-parenting as she wasn’t married to Scott at that point and not only that , she at the time refused to marry Scott because she felt trapped in a cycle of manipulations & deaths
Of course by the end of this comic she finally realized that Maddie & Phoenix’s feelings for Scott weren’t really manipulations but a byproduct of her feelings towards him as they were her & they (especially Phoenix as Phoenix isn’t really Jean but different entity and not a version of Jean like Maddie )
