This is the first appearance of the media X-Force team, later called X-Statix. This is effectively the first issue of a new series.
This is the first issue of the series to not be approved by the Comics Code Authority. In 2001, Marvel moved away from the code and developed their own rating system.
This issue relaunches X-Force into its entirely new territory that later relaunched under its own title as "X-Statix #1" once the fans of the traditional X-Force grew too annoyed and Marvel decided to distance itself for a time from all things Rob Liefeld by renaming X-Force to X-Statix, Cable to Soldier X and Deadpool to Agent X.
This issue is also notable for it being Marvel's first core-universe comic to be published without the stamp of the Comics Code Authority since those notorious d.r.u.g. addiction issues of Spider-Man in the 70's.
As for the content of the issue itself, here we are introduced to this new and different X-Force team that has accomplished the rare thing of gaining popularity regardless of their mutant status. They have done this by marketing themselves as a hardcore reality TV show.
Member Sluk is killed early and the team has to replace him with the Anarchist. This new X-Force team is sent on a mission to save the boy band Boyz R Us. This mission ends up being a trap where only the Anarchist, Doop and U-Go Girl survive. Now without their leader Axel the group has no leadership.
