Major X-Lapsed, Episode 7 - Major X #0

Six issues just wasn't enough, was it?  Anyone else up for another romp with the Major and M'Koy?  Well... uh, howsabout we spend this final episode of Major X-Lapsed talking about a two-part Wolverine story from the year 2000 instead? That's right folks - we're spending all but eight pages of this $5 zero issue looking at a story that appeared in Wolverine (vol.2) #154-155 (September-October, 2000) - featuring characters who haven't been seen since!  As for those other eight pages... well, they might just cause an X-Istential crisis... we're going to meet a whole lotta bucketheads... who we'll probably (hopefully?) never see again. Whatever the case - Major X-Lapsed is now complete... I want to humbly thank everybody who has hung on for this weird little seven-week sidebar! -- @acecomics / @cosmictmill / weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com xlapsed.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com/ facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

From Claremont to Claremont, Episode 3b - Ghost Rider/Wolverine/Punisher: Hearts of Darkness

Episode 3 of From Claremont to Claremont: An X-Men Podcast rolls on -- and goes off the beaten path, with our first look at a comic (prestige format dealie, actually) that isn't one of our regular monthlies! This time out, I am joined by Mark Radulich (@MarkRadulich) to discuss one of Wolverine's many, many... many guest appearances.  It's a little ditty called Hearts of Darkness by Howard Mackie and John Romita, Jr.! After going through the story cover-to-cover, we continue the FCTC Episode 3 "hook" where my co-host discusses the "Soundtrack of Their Life"!  Another very fun conversation... I hope you all decide to join us - and maybe even share your own personal "soundtrack"! -- Check out more from Mark at the W2M & Radulich in Broadcasting Network! https://www.spreaker.com/user/wrestling2themax https://www.spreaker.com/show/radulich-in-broadcasting -- @acecomics / @cosmictmill / weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

Cosmic Treadmill Special: Sandman Universe "Gatherum", Episode 8

It's Black Friday in America -- and not only does sharing this final compilation of Reggie and my coverage of DC's Sandman Universe books help me not to have to record an all-new show on Thanksgiving Day - I can also sorta play it off with a "Hey, remember in the 90s - when all those kids wearing black wouldn't shut up about Neil Gaiman's Sandman?  Black clothes... Black Friday... ehh?  ehh?"   Okay, I tried... I'm sorry.   Whatever the case, I hope you all enjoy this final installment.   --   Today's discussions originally aired in segment form during the following episodes of the Weird Science DC Comics Podcast:   Episode 225 (04.28.2019) - Books of Magic (vol.3) #7 Episode 226 (05.05.2019) - The Dreaming (vol.2) #9 Episode 227 (05.12.2019) - House of Whispers #9 Episode 228 (05.19.2019) - Lucifer (vol.3) #8 -- @acecomics / @cosmictmill / weirdcomicshistory@gmail.comchrisandreggie.podbean.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com

X-Lapsed, Episode 73 - X-Men #9

In which your stumblin', fumblin', humble host hits his personal "tipping point" as it pertains to "X-Men in Space" stories.  Sure, Cyclops and Havok's daddy lives out there... and the X-Men have a lotta friends and enemies out there - but, can we please get an issue without a reminder of that fact?! Also: Happy Thanksgiving! -- @acecomics / @cosmictmill / weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com xlapsed.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com/ facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

X-Lapsed, Episode 72 - Wolverine #2

In which your stumblin', fumblin', humble host hits his personal "tipping point" as it pertains to mutant deaths.  Sure, the Resurrection Protocols of the HoXPoXDoXSoX era have changed the "rules"... but, with this issue, it's almost turned to parody.  We'll talk a lot about that today... Also: More great listener mail! -- @acecomics / @cosmictmill / weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com xlapsed.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com/ facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

X-Lapsed, Episode 71 - Hellions #1

Dawn of X, Wave Two rolls on with the introduction of a very bizarre book, indeed - it's Hellions! What happens when you put Sassy Sinister in charge of a group of "inconvenient mutants"?  Well, we're about to find out.  This is a book that should NOT work - but, damned if it doesn't!  We're gonna have fun with this one! Also: A Giant-Size (and somewhat emotional) mailbag segment!  Thank you all for helping to push the Chris and Reggie Channel over 100,000 downloads! -- @acecomics / @cosmictmill / weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com xlapsed.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com/ facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

X-Lapsed, Episode 70 - Giant-Size X-Men: Nightcrawler #1

Today we're going Giant-Size to discuss an issue that claims to focus on Nightcrawler... and, while he IS in this story - the more accurate title for this might've been Giant-Size X-Men: Magik.  We're going to talk about continuity and costs here... as our entire story is built to add a resident to Krakoa, who we already saw pass through the portal months ago! Also: An actual Giant-Size Mailbag segment, talking about all things HoXPoXDoXSoX!  It's a great time as always, I do hope you'll join us! -- @acecomics / @cosmictmill / weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com xlapsed.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com/ facebook.com/groups/90sxmen

Major X-Lapsed, Episode 6 - Major X #6

Today we wrap up the Major X miniseries proper... and, well - I wish I could say we've got a lot to talk about... but, we don't!  We will see some Deadpool-on-Deadpool action... and our big-bad will get taken down by the Care Bear Stare.  I will also rail on about inconsistencies in the depiction of our titular character. Just one more episode to go... if we're bad enough dudes and dudettes to see our way through! -- @acecomics / @cosmictmill / weirdcomicshistory@gmail.com chrisandreggie.podbean.com chrisisoninfiniteearths.com xlapsed.chrisisoninfiniteearths.com/ facebook.com/groups/90sxmen
