This September, "X-Factor" is finished. During C2E2 over the weekend, Marvel announced that issue #262 under writer Peter David would be the last of the long-running title. Of all of the publisher's mutant books in the wake of M-Day (has it been that long?) David's "X-Factor" has survived and thrived under the weight of major events, a rotating stable of artists, and more importantly, the fickleness of a comic market that not be keen to support a series that was essentially an evolving, long-form mystery.
The road to the end begins this summer, and while Mr. David didn't promise that all secrets would be revealed or anything as grand as all that, he does hint that there will be some finality to his run--and as a reader, I can only hope that mutant sometimes detective Jamie Madrox and mystery girl Lyla Miller will arrive at the end of all of their enigmas.
After the jump, Mr. David offered us a few words on his time with the book, and bringing it to this seemingly sudden finale.

No, not that one, the Matt Salinger Cap. You haven't heard of him?

Well, in May, Shout! Factory is releasing Pyun's "Captain America" to Blu-ray for the first time with a new high-definition transfer and a new look back at the film with star Matt Salinger and director Albert Pyun--and you can get a sample of the movie in the exclusive clip up top!

About a month ago, Marvel halted its "Hey we're giving away 700 first issues for free on ComiXology" initiative because the deluge of readers hitting ComiXology during the offer's (incredibly narrow) window of two days caused their servers to explode. Now Marvel is doing it again, but this time, it should be orderly. We hope.
