X-Lapsed, Episode 93 - Wolverine #4

Happy New Year, Friends!  How's bout we celebrate by hitting up some dive bar in the Great White North with our titular hero?  Hopefully we don't inadvertently wind up stumbling into a meeting of an anti-mutant group!  Nah, nothing like 's gonna happen... right?  We'd probably wind up running into a coven of vampires first...

X-Lapsed, Episode 92 - Excalibur #11

Today we look at an issue of Excalibur that sorta-kinda feels like bunch of unfinished scenes all smooshed together to fit a standard-sized comic book.  That doesn't mean it's not a good time... it's just, a bit disjointed.  Maybe it's the Otherworld effect?  Sure, let's go with that!
Also: More X-Cellent Listener Mail!

X-Lapsed, Episode 91 - X-Force #11

The Path to #EcksofTens rolls on... and we start getting some swords into hands!  If you're excited for the big ol' slobberknocker between Colossus and Omega Red that the cover suggests then... hoo boy, you're gonna love this one!
In addition to the story, I talk a lot about X-Force tropes... and why the overreliance on them is kind of dragging these issues down a peg for me.
Also: Great listener mail!

X-Lapsed, Episode 90 - Marauders #11

We're officially on the "Path to" X of Swords - Follow along with all the fun with #EcksofTens
We've still got a few problems to solve before we hop into crossover mode, however... and one of 'em won't stop telling us to "call her Kate".  With today's comic, we will, by hook or by crook, put that problem behind us.  How will they do it?  Well, maybe they'll finally remember Kitty's entire mutant gimmick?
Also: Some excellent feedback in the mailbag - including some discussion of The Crucible from X-Men (vol.5) #7!  It's a great time as always - I hope you decide to join us!

X-Lapsed, Episode 89 - Giant-Size X-Men: Fantomex #1

Back to business as usual... and back to our Giant-Size side-series!
Get ready for some Fantomex... as he spends many pages re-entering a chaotic Danny the Street... er, I mean "The World".  It might feel like we're reading "Baby's First Grant Morrison Comic", but it's got some of the finest art we're likely to see in a saddle-stapled offering!
All that, plus some great and thoughtful discussion in the return of the Mailbag!

Phoenix ResurreX-Lapsed, Episode 4 - Phoenix Resurrection: The Return of Jean Grey #4

In our penultimate episode, the veneer starts to crack... in more ways than one.  The X-Men spend half the issue fighting... and the other half explaining.  How and why is Jean Grey back?  Well, there are some theories floated in this story... and we'll talk all about it!

From Claremont to Claremont, Episode 3f - X-Factor #73

From Claremont to Claremont, Episode 3 rolls on - with the final segment I've got in the hopper - Jeremiah (@bigox737) and I go dupe-crazy when we discuss X-Factor #73!
From there, Jeremiah will share with us the "Soundtrack of his Life" - It's a great conversation, that I've been sitting on for far too long - we hope you'll join us!
Also: I heard from several... a handful... okay, a couple of people, who said they'd like for me to break the previous two episodes of FCTC into individual segments... and so, that will likely begin in the coming weeks!  If you haven't heard 'em - they're new to you!

Merry X-Lapsed - Generation X #4 (1995)

Merry Christmas, friends!
Today we wrap up our little holiday vacation from the paradise that is Krakoa with... a Christmas story that isn't!  I mean, someone does eat a candy cane... and someone does wear a Santa hat... but, other than that - ain't no Christmas to see here!
Today we take a look at one'a those "Feared and Hated"-focused stories that we get from time to time in our X-Reading... but, it's a good one - right out of my own personal wheelhouse - written by Scott Lobdell and drawn by the amazing Chris Bachalo.
I hope you've enjoyed this "break" in our normal coverage... which will resume following the weekend.  Thank you all for indulging me - To You and Yours, from Me and Mine - Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
