Revision as of 01:32, 11 April 2015

The first series contains examples of:

Hollywood Homely: Sally/Skids was considered "ugly" by the morlocks.
Mis Blamed: There was no Pandering to the Base to bring Jean back. Nor was it Executive Meddling. It was simply that they finally figured out a way she could return without having killed five billion people.
- In fact it was executive meddling that kept her from returning until they found a way (Madelyne Pryor was even supposed to be Jean reincarnated until that was nixed).
The Woobie: Rusty/Firefist

The second series contains examples of:

My Real Daddy: Peter David is the man behind both the second and third series, and the title's name is now always linked to him.
Rescued From the Scrappy Heap: Madrox, who annoyed writers and artists alike for starting life as a visually boring and bland character whose superpower was to create visually boring copies of himself. It took Peter David's addition of creatively using his powers, a sense of humor and a philosophical side for the character to take off, and even after that, most writers still don't know what to do with him.

The third series contains examples of:

Nightmare Fuel: Jamie Madrox absorbing his own son.
- Also the mutant internment camps of the future.
- The birth of Rahne's son. Just..... Rahne's son.
Die for Our Ship: Some fans of Rictor/Shatterstar REALLY hate Rahne, especially after she tells Rictor he's the father of her baby.
Rescued From the Scrappy Heap: Layla again. She was previously regarded as nothing but a human Deus Ex Machina for House of M, but X-Factor has turned her into a genuine, interesting character.
- Shatterstar as well.
Ron the Death Eater: Rahne seems to be the most common target of this. She's either a kind-hearted woman with some very serious emotional issues, or an evil manipulative she-bitch out to ruin everything.
