 Agent X - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Agent X is a fictional mercenary whose adventures have been published by Marvel Comics.
Since the conclusion of the Agent X series, Agent X has appeared in two issues of Cable and Deadpool, wherein he was hired to kill Deadpool and stop him from resurrecting Cable.
He first appeared in Agent X #1 (Sept 2002), by Gail Simone and UDON.

 Agent X #7 Review - Silver Bullet Comics
As Agent X discovers that this man is aroused by every single person and/or object he lays his eyes on, we see our rather unsettled mercenary-for-hire discovers the job is the retrieval of a collection of prized celebrity underwear that was stolen from this man by a rival collector.
The idea of Agent X's employer finding everything arousing is used to hilarious effect, and thanks to some rather amusing dialogue choices, the material ends up feeling a great deal more risqué than it actually is because the reader are allowed to add their own dirty minds to the equation.
After he accepts the job Agent X also discovers his employer is the adventurous type, and as such Alex finds himself saddled with a entirely useless partner whose condition gives him the attention span of a goldfish.

 Comixfan Forums - AGENT X #8 REVIEW
Agent X himself is nearly unrecognizable, the plot is as boring as it is trite, the dialog is completely unrealistic, and the artwork is static and ugly.
Agent X doesn't look at all like he ever has before: again, it's not a matter of a differing interpretation so much as it is a seeming inability to draw Alex remotely resembling the way he's always looked.
Agent X has devolved into a stereotypical unthinking, uncaring, unbeatable assassin who slaughters anything that gets in his way.

 Weapon X: Agent Zero
Agent Zero is a (presumably) pre-existing character who's been drafted into Weapon X against his will and is a bit embarrassed about it.
The fifth and final Weapon X trailer is Agent Zero, and at last Frank Tieri turns up to write on himself.
As the first character in the series who is neither immediately loathsome nor mentally disturbed, Agent Zero is presumably going to be positioned as the book's de facto hero.

 Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Secret Agent X-9
The series did get into comic books, as David McKay's Magic Comics began reprinting it in 1939, but it was relegated to the back pages — Magic's covers were occupied by Henry, Mandrake the Magician and Blondie.
Undercover government agents were also becoming a popular form of fiction right then.
Dick Tracy, which started in The Chicago Tribune in 1931, was an instant hit, and was joined within a couple of years by Dan Dunn, Red Barry and other strips whose protagonists spent their days putting wrongdoers behind bars.

A Comics Code was then created destined to limit and rule on what could appear (and what could not) in the pages.

 COMICON.com: AGENT X DORKIN
Agent X’s healing abilities are not quite the same as the Beast’s or Wolverine’s or Aunt May’s (if I’m remembering correctly).
I also like having my comics appear all over the place, I’ve managed to pop up in books from many different comics publishers and a fair number of magazines and fanzines.
Also, he gets laid, which in the titillating but largely neutered world of superhero comics is a little off the beaten track.

 Je t'aime... moi non plus: Or: Love to hate you: the strange affair between French and American comics - PopMatters Comic Book Feature
While the US comics industry was going through its period of extreme mainstream success, BD's were struggling to keep the attention of a new generation raised on computer games and to fend off the invasion of their local market by cheaper Japanese manga.
Thus, most French comics readers (and there were quite a lot of them then) were effectively shielded from all developments in American comics, yet grew up with Mickey, Donald, Picsou (Uncle Scrooge) and Dingo (Goofy).
One comic got away though: by employing a roster of French writers and artists to locally produce content, France's Disney showcase Le Journal de Mickey survived the genocide and became a cultural icon.

 Review of 2003: Agent X
Ridiculously, Lis also left almost immediately after, but Agent X had already been condemned to a run-out period of fill-in issues before being condemned to cancellation.
Anyway, thanks to the miracle of alphabetisation, we'll kick off with Agent X, a title that had a less an illustrious year.
Considering the circumstances, there was some worthwhile material in Agent X this year.

 Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Ripley's Believe It Or Not
Artists on that version included George Evans (Secret Agent X-9, EC Comics), Reed Crandall (Doll Man, Treasure Chest) and Alberto Giolitti (Star Trek, Turok).
In the late '60s and through the 1970s, Gold Key Comics did a version, packaged more like a standard mystery/horror comic book than the jumble of factoids newspaper readers were familiar with.
Harvey Comics did Believe It or Not in comic book form from 1953-54, with art by Bob Powell (The Man in Black, The Avenger).

 Look of Love Intro
Comic strips were still the high ground in the 50s.
The first comic artist to show the new order was a familiar name for innovation, Alex Raymond.
New York art services which used comic strip style ads, the most famous Johnstone and Cushing, made the Sunday paper a line art billboard for a variety of products, ironically the work looking more and more like the photographs they recently replaced.

 Secret Agent X-9
We had X-9, a nameless government agent (with a secret identity as a private eye?) who's called upon (his name was in the book?) to help a rich man out of a jam.
The notion of X-9 as a government agent using a private detective role as a front was thrown out.
Bill Blackbeard, in his intro to Dashiell Hammett's Secret Agent X-9, a handsome volume which collects the Hammett/Raymond sequences, suggests that most of the irregularities and gaffes are the result of King Features' rewriting (Blackbeard called them "jerry-scripting") of Hammett's original script.

I absolutely love the Deadpool character and the Agent X comic was one of the better comics I elt Marvel has done in years.

 Italian comics magazines of the '30s and '40s
Comics were published in Italy from December, 23, 1908 on a magazine called Corriere dei Piccoli.
It was the first magazine with balloons and adventure comics, and it started the "Golden Era" of comics in Italy.
I have found some good friends there, and also discovered that the beautiful Italian (European) comics magazines are not well known around the world.

 Secret Agent X-9
Williamson's 13 year stint on Secret Agent X-9 (later renamed Secret Agent Corrigan), even though it's his longest sustained work on any title, gets short shrift, as if he was slumming or being punished by working in strips.
The strip returned to the desert only 5 stories and 17 months later in September 1969, with a sword-fighting, moat-spanning, castle-dungeon Prisoner of Zenda episode in between.
But, he is too much the artist to go through the motions, at anything.
