New year, new project! In honor of the 40th anniversary of X-Factor, the 2nd #XMen spinoff & arguably the most successful (in terms of issues published), each day I'll spotlight a cover from a comic published on that date featuring a member of the team! #XFactor40 #XMenADay

@RManta82 It's so rare to come across a character who just never came back, but Sinsear is one! He had his introductory story, then returned 30 odd issues later to die, and that's it! Done. It's kinda respectable.

Another annoying climb after reaching the 90s on Day 2 of the season. At least it’s an extra long season so I get two weeks to just goof around with stuff. Mostly played anti-meta Fantomex, but finished off with Move. Can’t beat ‘em, etc. #MarvelSnap

088 - Slayback With this card, Slayback enters "the same number of trading cards appearances as story appearances" territory (two), at least as of '94. Pretty good card, though. Nice depth & I like the tilt of the nonsensical skyline. #TradingCardADay #XMen #FUXM1 #GlennBarr

086 - Siena Blaze Continuing the run of Upstarts - which might be the most 1994 thing about this set. Though Siena Blaze is a legit inclusion at this time, and this is a good card (even if it makes her power look like "makes snow"). #TradingCardADay #XMen #FUXM1 #ScottHampton

@LukaNieto No, me neither. I think it'll be a case like Blood and Cheese where SOMEONE (probably not Daemon, again, maybe Mysaria) does it "on her behalf" (or someone on the Green side sneaks in and does it to make her look bad), without her explicitly saying it.

I also think we're gonna have another Bitterbridge substitute with Alicent trying to have Helaena and her unborn baby escape KL, but getting caught by Rhaenyra loyalists (or folks who just want the bounty) probably in KL rather than Bitterbridge, and unborn Maelor's gonna die.

I'm pretty sure Ormund having Daeron kill Kat's brother was HOTD's equivalent of Daeron burning Bitterbridge. Not as strong as that COULD be (not that F&B makes any effort to create a strong character arc,) but it's certainly less expensive and still does the job character-wise.

@AustinGorton Fitzroy was always a bit of a nothing burger villain to me. But! He’s integral to my all-time favorite Forge moment:

@RManta82 @RobertSecundus According to that article, most Marvel Comics staff don’t even live/work near NY. It’s like 100 people. So functionally, it’s not a huge change. Symbolically, moreso. And ofc it sucks for the NY employees who have to either move or quit.

@RobertSecundus Saving money. They're probably moving into a property that Disney already owns

@1tonpayton Certainly an East Coast/New Englander, I believe. Maybe this is the thing which prompts him to retire...

@AustinGorton Whoa. Wonder if Brevoort will make the move, he’s always seemed to me to be a fairly staunch NY guy
