X-Force handled shyt pretty well for the most part, the ONLY thing the fukked up on ultimately was the shyt with En Sabah Nur (which makes Wolverines high and mighty attitude about Cyclops all the more hypocritical).
The reason Scott kept getting more and more ruthless was because they were literally being pushed to the brink of extinction and nobody else cared. The Avengers and Fantastic Four never even tried to fukking help. The government was actively coming for them. That's why Scott ended up having to draw a line in the sand and say "fukk with us and we'll fukk your shyt up".
That was a GREAT time in X-Men history. The X-Men and even their sworn enemies united for a greater cause n were basically an unstoppable army. I LOVED how Cyclops would send out these wild, random combinations of powerful X-Men teams to go beat tha hell outta villains like The Skrull Invasion, The Purifiers, The Reavers and Donald Pierce, Selene, etc.,
