* HeartwarmingMoment: Nightcrawler asks Deadpool why he'd go on such a dangerous mission, especially since he lost his healing factor. His answer (well, second answer) was that he didn't want to let anyone down, because the X-Force is the closest thing he's ever had to a family. Remember, this is coming from the guy who's been mistreated pretty much his entire life, and has only ever had a handful of friends.

* TheScrappy: Hope Spaulding, BrattyHalfPint and former Mutant Messiah. Part of this is due to negative feelings regarding her role in the resolution of ''Comicbook/AvengersVsXMen'' where she eventually sides with the Avengers in taking down Dark Phoenix Cyclops, giving her her the same image of race traitor and Avenger flunky that Wolverine and Havok also share. The Other part comes from the existence of Teen Jean in ''ComicBook/AllNewXMen'' making Hope's ''other'' point as a character meaningless.

** Also Deadpool's heart-to-heart with Evan, in which he reassures him that he's a great kid and isn't anything like Apocalypse.

* CompleteMonster: This incarnation of X-Force was put together for the purpose of wiping these off the face of the Earth. The Purifiers, Reverend Craig, Selene, etc. Arguably the only one to whom this doesn't apply is Eli Bard. He's just a guy gone completely insane over his miserable eternal life and desperate for someone to love him. Unfortunately the only way to get the one he loves to love him back is to kill millions of people. Which he doesn't have a problem with anymore thanks to a few centuries of crushing loneliness driving him ALL the way round the bend.

!!The first series:
* AuthorsSavingThrow: When Rob Liefeld quit the title, Fabian Nicieza famously salvaged the team by writing out Cable and bringing exiled New Mutants Sunspot and Rictor back to the team, as well as New Mutants supporting cast member Lila Cheney, as well as shifting the tone away from the grim and gritty to focus on team interaction amongst the core New Mutants holdovers. Furthermore, Cable came back to the team, less angsty and more stern but lovable father figure-like, Feral was written out, and Shatterstar was given a crush on Rictor that gave him more depth than being a generic warrior dude.
* HoYay: Rictor and Shatterstar. Recent events have made them a fully canonical couple.

!!The second series / X-Statix:
