Mutants fight. And so on.

Three groups of mutants have one great time! We enjoyed this week's issue. We also enjoyed talking about the weird selectivity of very old names and why we're cutting the Disney+ cord!

SEO time! Wolverine, snikt, claws, Wolverine, Logan, Japan, Phoenix, Dark Phoenix, Wolverine, Wolverine

Hot take: Star Wars is overrated! Listen here.

We're back! Weird hiatus, but we're back with another one. Issue 205 and Claremont and Windsor-Smith have packed a powerful one! (pun intended) We also spoil the latest Dr. Strange.

Nightcrawler takes on Arcade and buckles are swashed!

Nothing at all about comics in this one. Just lots of straight talk about Disney World, where we just spent the past six days.

Who's the hottest Batman? Listen on, true believer!

The Beyonder is a jerk! The action in this issue is really boring ... or is it? We also talk about how critics may be reading too much into the audiences they're writing about and why Antonio Banderas shouldn't try to film a movie while combatting allergies.

We talk a lot about talking and we bring all five sense to bear this week! Also, Brian talks about his heel turn on Bobba Fett and we wonder just how much longer we'll keep sending money to Disney+. Even more intriguing: will Mark Hamill accept $96 in exchange for never appearing as a de-aged Luke Skywalker? There's only one way to find out! 

Claremont turns a villain into a hero and, folks ... it's credible! We dig into the classic issue #200, and perform a slow, mumbly recap. We talk about how our initial interest in Boba Fett is rapidly waning and then there's a lovefest for the Olympics. Biathlon!

We spend the first few minutes talking about power cords and the terrible people who run Apple. Eventually, we get around to talking about this week's issue: LifeDeath II. We love Ororo, we love Barry Windsor-Smith. We might not love Jean Grey coming back to life and we're definitely split on Boba Fett.

Arcade, Murderworld, etc.

Kitty says the N-word. 'Nuff said?

We were on the fence about this issue, in which we see a whole lot of Power Pack. Who were they meant to appeal to anyway. We also discuss the topic of "fridging" and conclude that we might not have enjoyed Skyfall.

Juggernaut goes to the bank, Nimrod is NOT a gay icon, Brian was a jerk in middle school, and everyone ought to eat latkes any damn they want to.

We're back with the X-Men! In addition to a rich discussion of moral obligation and the culture of victimhood, Brian and Inessa find time to talk about the war on Chanukah. We're not sure who's winning.

Brian is back from his vision quest and we get to talk about comics again! The Kitty Pryde and Wolverine mini-series concludes and we're both fans. 

We discuss issues 3 and 4 of Kitty Pryde and Wolverine. In addition, we cover wokeness in sci-fi and elsewhere, Elon Musk, The Chair and take yet another cheap shot at Loki.
