Chris and Reggie's Cosmic Treadmill

With the Secret X-Men "roadblock" out of our way -- business might just be about to start pickin' up again!  Today we cross the halfway point of our XLADOW crossovent coverage -- and, while your humb…

Running headfirst (repeatedly) into a "roadblock" episode -- covering a book I wasn't exactly looking forward to having to talk about.  Gonna have to pull out the ol' X-Men Green disclaimer: I did no…

Come for the clumsy pop-psychology, stay for the inattention to detail!

This issue of New Mutants unfortunately falls between two eras -- we're thru with the Reign of X... but not quite into Destiny …

X-Lapsed, back again!

Today, after a heartfelt "thank you" to all of the wonderful, supportive friends and listeners out there, we check back in on the crossovent of the season - XLADOW!

It's not a p…

Because absolutely, positively nobody demanded it - X-Lapsed has returned (for today, anyway).  It's Unlimited day... mostly because I was in the middle of writing this script when I decided to hang …

The weekend kinda got away from me, and so - in lieu of an all-new episode, we're indulging in another compilation piece.  And, I mean, let's face it -- it's doubtful anybody's gonna bother listening…

That time we all bought the next issue of New Mutants... and weren't sure if we were reading things in the right order!  Instead of a swashbuckling adventure in the stars with the Shi'ar... we were d…

X-Force continues to be the unsung flagship book of the Dawn of X era, with Benjamin Percy's sophomore collection!  The stories being told might not be to everybody's liking, however, I don't think a…

There's something to be said about a book that lives up to its tagline... unfortunately THIS book's tagline happens to be: "Who Says A Comic Book Has to be Good??"

So yeah - today we're looking at so…

Not even a two-hour bout of oral surgery could stop your humble host from wrapping up our Magneto arc on time!  Which is to say... I'm a bit more loopy than usual today, gang!

But what a day it is...…

On the eve of Avengers vs X-Men: Round Two -- we get to experience a slapfight between Cyclops and Quicksilver!  Not much more to say about this one!  Our "Origins of the Uncanny X-Men" backup is sil…

We're finally back for a stint in the Silver-Age... where one of our teen-age heroes meets a fella outta Marvel's Golden Age!  It's the coming (and going) of Red Raven!  Hold on to yer harnesses gang…

In our "milestone" three hundred twenty-fifth episode, we're stepping off the beaten X-Path to discuss a milestone issue of Black Panther!  It's got the Legacy Voodoo Numbering of 200... and in it, o…

This volume starts off pretty strong, with a two-parter that -- believe it or not, does NOT take place in Otherworld!  Sadly, this is short-lived... and, I'm fairly certain we don't get another issue…

The Triple-Dip collection rolls on, with the sophomore outing for Duggan's Marauders.  This time out, we've got a dead Captain, some other "fake-out" deaths, and a whole lotta build-up for X of Sword…

We're back off the beaten path, with a tie-in to the Death of Doctor Strange storyline... which, features our flagship team... but, is really more a backdoor pilot for a follow-up to 2021's Black Kni…

Back in the XLADOW saddle, where our premise is beginning to make a bit more sense (at least to your denser-than-most humble host).  We follow our titular hero through various phases of his life... w…

Into the Pit... for a bat-spit insane and hyperviolent romp with Sabretooth!

Had a lot of fun with this issue... it's almost enough to make me pollyannishly optimistic for the Destiny of X era!  With…

Celebrating eighteen months of X-Lapsed with the Secret Origin of Captain Krakoa!

This is still a story I'm having a hard time getting out of my own way on... but, if I squint and forget that this ta…

Ahoy, Muties... let's put together a new Marauders team!

What's that in the distance?  It's awkward and wildly unnatural dialogue!

What's that even further in the distance?  Well... it's some very in…
