An episode emblematic of the "X-Lapsed Problem", as it pertains to over-analysis and repetition... and, if THAT doesn't entice you to listen, I don't know what would!

If you DO decide to listen, we'll be wrapping up the eleventy-hundred part Paradise Lost - with a clever gimmick and a slight cliffhanger that I kinda doubt will ever be paid off.  Life of Wolverine continues to be a 90 second read, which leads to about 45 minutes of independent research in order to fill in all the blanks we're left with!

Is there anyone getting anything out of this Quick 'n Dirty look at Wolverine's life?  If so, please lemme know!

The penultimate of Paradise Lost brushes with greatness when we almost get a very special exchange between Juggernaut and Professor X.  Also, Deadpool gets squished a whole bunch.

Meanwhile, Life of Wolverine meanders on... straddling the line between being an illustrated (and incomplete) Wikipedia entry, and an actual story.  It's trying to be both, but succeeding at neither!  We'll stick with it, however, and hope for the best!

A pair of very... *slight* stories for this Infinity Comics outing: Juggernaut and Deadpool finally make their way to Krakoa for the upcoming two-part finale... and our trek through the Life and Times of Wolverine takes us through Origin's I and II... without wasting a single beat!  "Quick 'n Dirty" might just be an overstatement!

All 'at plus the Mailbag!

Playing catch-up on our X-Infinity Comics by rejoining the Juggernaut and Deadpool's run-in with the Human Adaptoid... in which we don't get any Nazi jokes... but, DO get some jokes beaten into the ground all the same!

Also, we step off the beaten path to take a peek at a Spider-Bot story... which stars, believe it or not, Wolverine!  Both stories are pretty fun this time out... and well worth your time in checking out!

Plus: Mailbag and This Week in X!

In which Fabian Nicieza repeatedly takes the brave stance that Nazis are bad... and inches his story a few moments further along -- and our back-up feature begins the retelling of Wolverine's Origin... as in, literally, the first issue of Origin, we've got us another lackluster Infinity Comics day!

Least we got the returning Mailbag to keep things light!

In which our Juggernaut/Deadpool team-up starts showing severe signs of decompression... and, hoo boy, does it like pointing out that Arnim Zola is a Nazi!  Don't make that into a drinking game... you'd never survive the x-perience!

Plus - Bobby Drake rings in the New Year by kissing himself and delivering some of the cringiest dialogue your humble host has seen in years!  It's a trip!

Also - Some babbly and rambly personal asides and anecdotes... that hopefully make a modicum of sense!

X-Lapsed is back after our Holiday (and DCBS-not-shipping-me-the-books) break... and, we're kicking off our #Roadto300 with... X-Men Unlimited!  Today's chapter features a heart-to-heart... or, maybe fist-to-head conversation between our two feature characters... and liberal (ab)use of the finger-flickin' gimmick of the Infinity Comics format.

Also: In lieu of a mascot-backup, we're taking a look at the X-Centric Wolverine Holiday Special... which, sadly is a product more interested in making "lol, references" than actually telling a story.  Oh well...

Today - we begin the healing process!

After skatey-eight weeks of horrendous X-Men Green, X-Men Unlimited moves on with... what we might be able to refer to as the follow-up to the very fun Juggernaut "Unstoppable" miniseries from last year!  It's still Fabian Nicieza... which is a very good thing indeed!

Also, taking the place of It's Jeff! in the "Infinity Comics back-up" slot, it's... Lucky the Pizza Dog!  Today we check out his first outing, where he and Hawkeye-Girl tangle with the dread Porcupine... in order to procure a pizza!

Plus: The return of "Fake-Ass Comics History", some very unfortunate news about the immediate future of this program, the February, 2022 X-Solicits, some Destiny of X and FCBD2022 news, This Week in X, and much more!  It's a bigger-than-normal episode... especially for Unlimited day!
