* BrushOffWalkOff: After Dr. Valerie Cooper was manipulated by the Acolytes into trying to destroy X-Factor, the team learns of her involvement with Project Wideawake, a government project to develop Sentinels, which Valerie tries to defend as a last resort, in the event that X-Factor fails. She protests to the team that she never intended for it to be used against them, as they are her friends. Quicksilver spurns her apology as the team walks off.
--> '''Quicksilver:''' ''"Some of my best friends are mutants." Oh, Valerie, how very typical -- of a [[FantasticRacism Flat Scan]].''



* CrossThrough: One story has the team getting into a tussle with the Hulk and the Pantheon. Because Hulk was also being written by Peter David at the time.

* JokeCharacter: [[HarmlessVillain Would-be suppervillian]] Vic Chalker designed a suit of battle armor to do away with mutants but ran into several issues. He died when some exposed wiring on his armor was struck by rain. His brother Rick Chalker tried to avenge him, calling himself the Number One Fan, but killed himself in attempting to quit his impenetrable house after having removed his hands for blades. His other brother, the mutant Dick Chalker/Carnivore swore to avenge him and "his cousin Mick" (presumably Rick), only to be hit by a car soon after.
