“X-Factor” #229-236

By Jaina Hill | Jul 29, 2019 | Columns

Another week, another dupe. These “X-Factor” stories were short, but sweet. That especially goes for ‘They Keep Killing Madrox,’ a relentless story that never eases off the throttle.

To quote the folk-punk group Days N Daze I “feel like we’re playing tug of war and I’m the rope and I’m stretched to my limit but you keep […]
