X-Factor, Vol. 12: Scar Tissue
by Peter David
12th volume in and still loving this series.
So this starts off finishing up the Renee storyline, or atleast getting the truth out. Then we do two standalone issues, one dealing with Darwin and the other dealing with Layla and Jamie. Then we get into a main storyline that deals a bit with Spider-man and a lot with J.j. This brings up a major moment that happens to one of our teammates, some more mystery plotlines, and a ending that will for sure keep you wanting more.
Good: Really love the interaction with all these characters. The balance between super funny moments and downright emotional, crying in the corner moments, works so well. The progress for a lot of characters, growing into new people throughout their run is great. The ending is pretty interesting and I'm dying to know what happens next.
Bad: The J.J. stuff was good but seem a bit odd and hypocritical to the character. Also, with so many plotlines, you start to feel it's a bit too jumbled.
Overall, solid and fun. While not the best volume it's still super strong. Right around a 3.5 but I'll bump it to a 4.
