On the Eve... or, maybe during, the Hellfire Gala -- we check in with a couple of uninvitees in the Cables young and old!  Turns out, the kid ain't too long for this world... or, point in the timeline, rather.

Speakin' of kids... we get a couple of chapters where the Kids of the Atom don't do a helluva lot.  We also open with yet another amazing issue of Way of X that your humble host excitedly waxes on about for far too long!

After two-plus years in our brave, new post-HoXPoX era... we're finally getting on with it!  Well, sorta... all of the momentum is about to be usurped by Hellfire Gala hoo-doo, and a fairly drastic shift in direction.

This time out, we get some Nimrod, Sinister gets in position to start concocting Chimerae, Excalibur gets malicious, Kid Cable keeps being bummed out... and the Children of the Atom sorta-kinda get an origin... that never gets touched on again!

Continuing on our trek from #EcksofTens to the Hellfire Gala... and, killing an entire trade collection with some B and C tier titles!  You want Hickman?  Sorry 'bout that.  You want the actual X-Men book?  Better luck next time...

Here's a collection for the completionists... we'll have fun with it all the same!

Heyyy, it's the long-awaited launch of Children of the Atom... and, well... they don't even get the cover for the anthology volume!  How sad.

We've also got Betsy beboppin' around the Infinite Earths, Wolverine partying like it's 1992, Kid Cable makin' time with Domino... and much, much more!

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 sorta-kinda long-awaited return of "original recipe" X-Lapsed!

We kick off the August episodes with a look at a surprise penultimate issue!  Didn't realize this series was coming to an end... it's Children of the Atom, and in it - the secret is out!  Was the destination worth the journey?  Well, you be the judge of that!

Also: An(other) appeal for dissent, wherein I ask folks to reach out to me if they feel I'm "harshing" too much on certain books/creators... rather than anonymously leaving me harmful feedback on top podding aggregates!

And: An X-Tended Mailbag Feature

Finally: A flip thru everything X in Marvel Previews for September, 2021!

It's a long one... so, "I'm sorry" or "You're welcome"!

Taking a sidebar from the #HellfireGala to check in on the COTA kids... who are still, after four issues, trying to figure out their way through the Krakoan Gates!

We've also got some great Mailbag!

Two issues in, and the CoTA kids are already in repeats!

In this very similar to the first issue issue... the CoTAs face off against the Hell's Belles... are approached by some Krakoans about going "home"... and stand longingly in front of the Coney Island Krakoan Gateway!

Hey, but the Avengers show up for two pages... so there's that!

Plus: Great Mailbag, and a F.A. Comics History piece on the many, many, many appearances of The Hell's Belles!

After a year of delays... it's finally time to meet, well - whoever these Children of the Atom turn out to be!

In this opening chapter, we get elbows deep into the mystery of who... and/or what these characters might end up being!  Are the Chimeras?  Are the high on MGH?  Are they just really good Cosplayers?

... and how come they changed the last page of this issue when it published digitally?  I make a lot of wild theories... and I'd love to hear yours as well!

Also: An X-Cellent Mailbag Segment!
