Hmmm, I wonder.  Could it be that Shooter had a double motivation for
creating x-factor?  Besides 'wanting to bring the original X-men together',
he might also be hedging his bets by removing all the original characters
from the current X-men mag.  Notice that even Professor X has been moved
off to the other end of the galaxy.  He may be unethical, (and you can quote
me) but the guy's not an idiot.  I wonder whether this has anything to do
with the re-creation of more recent characters like ms. marvel.

Anyone know exactly which characters Kirby created?  Another question:
While all this fecal matter is going on, what's Stan Lee doing?  Is he
entirely in the background now?  (Perhaps like Gene Roddenberry and the
Star Trek movies.)
