17 - Giant Size X-Men #1 w/ Alex Goldman

Before Matt and Pat took on one of the most important X-Men issues of ALL TIME, we needed to bring in a heavy hitter. Alex Goldman, from the podcast Hyperfixed, joins us to tackle the introduction of some of the most beloved characters in comic book history and a big island that’s also a mutant.

Topics include:

Sleeping in the Superman movie. Flying around in a cloud. Cat eyes. The X-Men arcade game. A bunch of Aztec gods stomping around. "Lorna Dale?" Recruiting X-Men by race-baiting. Another torch-wielding mob. Wolverine the business-man. Cut your boss's tie. Storm can only grant one wish. Sephiroth Posting. Cyclops is NOT a baby. Bobby Drake experimenting with Groucho eyebrows.  A Force that Assaults. “Please don’t call me ‘Thunderbird’.” The Ringo of the group. The murder of Captain Planet.
