I don’t know why I feel compelled to keep tabs on the relationships of these X-Factor characters. Maybe it’s because they all seem super awkward and I’m curious to see how they end, which will probably be silently whenever the writers change and the new writers won’t be bothered to acknowledge them. Or maybe it’s because I secretly yearn to be this happy and by hyper-focusing on them I can both live through them vicariously while ridiculing them in order to make myself feel safe and superior. Nah that can’t be it.

Oh my god someone needs to barf all over those frumpy overalls! I hope his ice sled crashes into a rusty saw blade factory and they all get tetanus! (X-Factor #65 – Apr 1991)
