Where it came from
Published in early 1988, X-Factor #25 is a landmark issue in the X-Men mythos, written by Louise Simonson with interior art by Walt Simonson. It serves as the climax to the 'Fall of the Mutants' crossover event, specifically concluding the storyline that pitted the X-Factor team against the ancient entity known as Apocalypse. The issue is widely recognized for introducing the character Archangel, marking the permanent transformation of Warren Worthington III after the loss of his natural wings.
The design of the character's new aesthetic was a collaborative effort between the Simonsons and editor Bob Harras, aiming to transition the character from a classic, lighthearted hero to a more tragic, hardened figure. The visual shift, featuring metallic wings and a blue-skinned appearance, was intended to reflect the dark toll of Apocalypse’s influence. Upon its release, the issue was well-received by readers for its dramatic pacing and the permanent, high-stakes consequences it imposed on a foundational member of the original X-Men roster.
