Peter David's X-Factor will conclude in September.

Issue #262 will mark the end of the long-running series, Marvel announced at the X-Men panel during Chicago's C2E2 Expo.

"It was basically decided that the 'Hell on Earth War' was as major a storyline as we were going to do," David told Newsarama.

"I'd been building toward it for so long that it simply seemed a logical culmination to the entire series. So we decided to wrap it up. It's been going for 10 years, after all."

He said that the move was not related to his recent stroke. "It was something we'd been discussing long before the end of December," he said.

David promised that he would "leave all the characters in good places". "They deserve that," he added.

Following the conclusion of X-Factor, the writer said he had a "secret new project" he will be working on for Marvel Comics.
