X-Factor #18
In "X-Cell, Part 1 of 3," Peter David and artist Khoi Pham kick off a tense, high-stakes arc as X-Factor scrambles to protect Mutant Town from a looming threat, with the X-Cell sheltering inside. With allegiances fraying and the shadow of mass detention looming, the team faces a dangerous choice: expose the truth behind M-Day or risk everything to keep it buried. Pablo Raimondi’s cover captures the urgency of the moment, while the story unfolds with sharp pacing and emotional weight.
