Chris and Reggie's Cosmic Treadmill

The Essential X-Lapsed, Episode 061 - X-Men #46 (1968)

Back behind the mic after a long hiatus... jumping back in with the Silver Age X-Men, just as they're getting set to split up! This being a Chris-show, expect the first half-hour of it to be full of stuff you probably couldn't care less about... but, once I finally get to the comics-content, it's a pretty good time! Two "ehh" stories, the Mutant Mail-Box, and Bullpen Bulletins are all here!
Huge and sincere THANK YOU for your patience and lack of new episodes over the past few months.

X-Lapsed, Episode 361 - FCBD 2022: Avengers/X-Men #1

Welcome to AXE-Lapsed!
Kicking off the X-Lapsed coverage of the Summer-into-Fall, 2022 Crossovent, AXE: Judgment Day!  Today, we're taking a look at three short subjects from two of Marvel's 2022 Free Comic Book Day offerings - two from FCBD 2022: Avengers/X-Men #1 and one story with a surprise X-Twist from FCBD 2022: Spider-Man/Venom #1!
All three stories are fun... and offer your humble host some (uncharacteristic?) optimism about the near future of the X-Books!  Also: I willingly eat a bit of crow when I admit that Marvel (and DC) finally used the FCBD opportunity to actually deliver the goods... and reward reader loyalty!
Plus: A great Mailbag section!

X-Lapsed, Episode 360 - Wolverine #21

Deadpool continues stumpin' for a spot on X-Force, while Wolverine... well, he pretty much just sighs and seethes, which is probably the right response to x-tended Deadpool dialogue!
A fun issue, full of action and actual humor!  Worth your time (unlike this program).
Plus: A dip into the Mailbag to chat up s'more Knights of X!

X-Lapsed, Episode 359 - Knights of X #2

One of those "good news, bad news" situations, wherein your humble host reports that he'd weathered a pretty horrifying health scare -- but, is now back to talk s'more about Otherworld... and Pop-Tarts!

X-Lapsed, Episode 358 - X-Men #11

Heyyy, anybody remember that whole Gameworld story that kicked off this volume?  Well, our creative team just did!
The adjectiveless "flagship" of the line still meanders on... a victim of poor timing, and a certain Head of X abandoning ship when the waters got choppy.  Here's hoping "season two" of this title feels a bit more relevant than all this!
Plus: Some great Mailbag!

X-Lapsed, Episode 357 - X-Force #28

The Hentai Helmet continues its rampage thru Krakoa... and the casualties are beginning to mount, including a couple of Silver Age Mutants!  Also, Wolverine gets a hangnail... and, no, I'm not kidding.
Plus: By special request, your humble host dips back into his "Idiot's Guide to Comics Podcasting" to give some, perhaps harsh, advice regarding the need to become "podfamous".

X-Lapsed, Episode 356 - X-Men Red #2

It's the X-Men vs. the Brotherhood... fixed in a little different sort of way.
Today the hearts and minds of the less-warrish Arakkii are contested for... and we get plenty of food for thought regarding the potential tempests in the Marsarakko teapot!  Plus, an attempt at correcting a continuity gaffe that your humble host hasn't been able to shut up about since it happened!
I might rant a bit about attention to detail... and, how the fans who seem to care about things like continuity are usually mocked by the people who fail to adhere to it.  Please listen anyway!

X-Lapsed, Episode 355 - Marauders #2

It's time for me to pull out the ol' X-Corp/X-Men Green disclaimer... today's book was one your idiot host did not enjoy.  If that fact threatens to ruin your day, feel free skipping this episode.
It's more Shi'ar Sh...tuff, and yet another attempt at shoehorning even more ancient mutants into the X-Men lore.  No, not those ancient mutants... or even those ancient mutants... these are All-New, All-Different ancient mutants!  That is, until next month's ancient mutants.
Also, we get a lot of obscure bits of Marvel history casually namedropped... the Marvel Wiki Randomizer was working overtime for this one!
Plus: a brief mailbag segment.
Again, this was not a book I cared for... so, if Chris being a negative nellie isn't what you're wanting to hear, feel free to skip this one!
