Honestly it got way to weird when that little girl... Layla miller? Anyways she started acting like she was gonna hook up with Jamie... The love triangle with pre teens was way too weird for me... I read sporadically around when Jamie got the m on his face... I honestly don't remember him breaking his roughly 40 clone limit... Was there an issue that referenced that? I was severly turned off by xfactor some time last year so honestly I haven't kept up...In fact I haven't picked up a comic in two months since I started my marathon training. :-/
Spoiler:
they both (or rather she and dupe) travel to an alternate reality to see the future after the birth of hope summers, this turns out to be bishop's reality. as they are taken to mutant concentration field, the dupe kills himself to send his memories back to madrox in the 616, layla stays behind in the camp, eventually escaping from it to join and set off the summers rebellion against the sentinels and the human government. she grows up in this reality and sends for madrox in the 616, where only a few months have passed. once he gets there (after almost commiting suicide over his "son"😉 and meets her as an adult, they begin a relationship and take down the sentinel government with the then unexplained help of dr doom (corrupting fitzroy in the process). They go back to the 616, jamie arrives at the present but layla goes back 2 years further in the past with a device to transfer a shitload of future knowledge into her past self's brain, thus making her know stuff. she then jumps ahead into the present and becomes best friends with dr doom trading future knowledge for mystical and tech knowledge which she knows she is going to need in the future (her future in the 616, not her past in the bishop's reality). she eventualy goes back to x-factor sporting doom tech and packing heavy magics. last issue, a dupe asked her to marry him manifesting madrox's repressed desires. in the end of the book madrox himself manages to be impuslvie about something in his life and asks her to marry him. the book is all kinds of awesome
the thousands of dupes image is from when hydra kidnapped him. I dont recall the exact issue, but it's x-factor.
