X-Factor #7: Scientia Vincere Tenebras

[superboyprime]

"Jean-Paul is canonically anti-establishment and proud of his identity as a gay mutant, so coming out of AOXM would have very clear implications on his emotional state. He’s angry and traumatized and has always been an agitator who pushes against the establishment. Asks a lot of questions. Instigates. So tracking down missing mutants is a righteous and natural fit for him, now." - Leah Williams

I agree. Hickman wanted resurrection to change the pattern and force writers to think differently. I think that’s happened, for the most part. Percy is still old school destructive but I find that the rest of the books are better for resurrection.

Percy is just a genuinely terrible writer, which is probably why X-force and Wolverine are the only two books of the new X-line up that I've genuinely hated and that I'm not buying. Every single page of Wolverine and X-force is just Percy going "Look how edgy I am everybody!" like an even less talented knock off of Frank Miller
