X-Lapsed, Episode 245 - X-Men Unlimited #2

Our weekly look at the weekly X-Book continues... and so does our opening Wolverine vs. AIM vs. MODOK... in spaaaaaaaaaace story!
We're going to spend most of this episode talking about how this story is predicated on scrolling for great swaths of time... and, while that isn't a bad thing, it kinda hampers the ability to ever comfortably translate this into a physical product.
Also: The adorable second chapter of... It's Jeff!  What happens when our tiny Land Shark finds his way into a washing machine?  Will Punky Brewster get there in time to save him?  Wait, that was a fridge... nevermind.

The Collected X-Lapsed, Episode 20 - Juggernaut: No Stopping Now

With the Dawn of X behind us, and X of Swords on the horizon - I thought it would be nice to take a breather from the heavy-duty Krakoa stuff, and check in on what Professor X's sometimes evil brother is up to (especially since nobody's willing to let the poor guy just live on the island!).
We'll meet D-Cel, who is totally not a mutant... and find out how Cain Marko regained the power of the Juggernaut.
A fun series... here's hoping for a follow-up!
Note: The "Mailbag" segments of the latter episodes of this series might have some X of Swords spoilers!

X-Lapsed, Episode 244 - Children of the Atom #6

Today we wrap up the story of the COTA kids... for now!  What will they do with an actual honest-to-goodness Mutant in their midst?  Will they fanboy and fangirl out... or wallow in jealousy that it isn't THEM who's got dem special genes?
Also - We thought we'd gotten away from it, but... much like DC Comics' Manhunters: Nobody escapes the Hellfire Gala!  Yes... we're back at the Gala.
Plus - An X-Tra Size Mailbag, Shout-Outs, Marvel Previews for November, 2021 - and more!

The Essential X-Lapsed, Episode 35 - X-Men #35

It's the milestone 25th issue of X-Men!  Wow, remember when volumes of X-Men actually hit twenty-five issues?!  Seems like a lifetime ago, dunnit?
So, how will our Silver-Age Sensations celebrate the occasion?  Well, if you were to guess that they're going to fight another awful bad guy, then you win the world's worst No-Prize yet!  It's time to tangle with the dread El Tigre (no relation to Jean Grey).
All'at plus Letters, Bullpens, Merry Marvel Marching, Marvel Heroes on TV, Mailbag, Shout-Outs... oh my!
