X-Factor (1986) #95 – Direct Edition (Marvel Comics)
X-Factor (1986) #95 (October 1993), written by J.M. DeMatteis and Scott Lobdell, pencils by Greg Luzniak, inks by Al Milgrom, cover by Greg Luzniak, is a Copper Age issue, priced at $1.25. Titled “Fatal Repulsions,” it follows government-sponsored X-Factor—Havok, Polaris, Multiple Man, Strong Guy, Wolfsbane, Quicksilver. Random, the mutant mercenary, attacks Polaris, but his true motives remain unclear, adding mystery. Havok adjusts to Forge’s new role as team liaison, while Wolfsbane (Rahne) loses control again, escalating team tensions. J.M. DeMatteis and Scott Lobdell’s script blends action, intrigue, and character drama, with Greg Luzniak’s detailed pencils delivering dynamic visuals. Luzniak’s cover, featuring Random’s assault on Polaris, is a collector’s highlight. Direct Edition, with possible Sealed Polybag (trading card).
