Well, I couldn't put it off any longer... it's time for us to dip back into Otherworld for the follow-up (miniseries, I hope) to Excalibur (vol.4) -- Knights of X!

This time out, Betsy Britain opens a book and whisks a bunch of her pals away to the boring place.  And, well, that's about it.  At least it's very pretty to look at!

Running headfirst (repeatedly) into a "roadblock" episode -- covering a book I wasn't exactly looking forward to having to talk about.  Gonna have to pull out the ol' X-Men Green disclaimer: I did not like this issue -- if that in any way offends you or threatens to ruin your day, feel free to skip!

Plus: Yer humble host does some A/X/E prep, by introducing himself to the current volume of Eternals!  I talk Eternals (vol.5) #1 cover-to-cover right here!

This volume starts off pretty strong, with a two-parter that -- believe it or not, does NOT take place in Otherworld!  Sadly, this is short-lived... and, I'm fairly certain we don't get another issue from this entire volume of Excalibur that doesn't deal with Otherworld... best enjoy it while it lasts!

After that fun two-parter, we're back to business as usual... Fair This, Foul That, Crooked These, Opal Luna Those... it's our messy build-up to EcksofTens and Beyond... in that current-year Excalibur style!

A world of fantasy and magic awaits... whether we want it or not.

We're about to deep-dive on a book where it's ALL Otherworld, just about ALL the time.  Maybe it'll make more sense in this Triple-Dip "collected" format?  You'll have to let me know!

So, get ready to join Betsy Britain, Ayyyyy, and the whole cast of Excalibur as they... do magic stuff, and muck around with weird royalty.

Ding-Dong, this book is done!

Too bad the story's not.

Which is to say... this might just be an episode where I veer a tad bit into the negative -- and so, if that is something which threatens to offend you personally, I humbly invite you to skip this one!  It's all good, we're all still pals!

If you DO decide to listen, you'll get my thoughts on the unsatisfying and muddled non-wrap up of Excalibur - as well as an X-Tended and very fun Mailbag segment!

Any thoughts on this book?  This issue/the title overall?  I'd love to hear and share 'em... good, bad, and/or indifferent!

Kicking off our look at the 2022 (cover-dated) X-Books with the milestone 25th issue of Excalibur... which, I'm sad to say feels just as pointless as most of the non-milestone issues of Excalibur!

Who's ready for some more fighting in Otherworld?  Me neither... but, this is an all-or-nothing sort of show.  Listener Warning: I'm fairly down on this book... not to the depths of an X-Men Green or X-Corp... but, I did NOT care for it.  If that opinion offends you or rubs you the wrong way, you may wanna sit this one out!

We DO however have a fun x-tended Mailbag Segment, featuring the return of another of our great pals!  Also, This Week in X... and tangents a'plenty!

Original Recipe X-Lapsed is back... and, it's Excalibur Day!  Shockingly, this time out it doesn't completely feel as though I've missed an issue -- though, some oddities do abound.  What we have here is a mostly enjoyable issue, where pieces are falling into place to (hopefully) take this volume into its satisfying conclusion.

Plus: Mailbag, the January 2022 Solicits (before everything fell apart), This Week in X, and much more!

But, let's not get ahead of ourselves... we still need to discuss this final issue!  There's not a whole heckuva lot to it... and I spend most of the episode largely apologizing and agonizing over not liking it!

Agree?  Disagree?  Either way, I'd love to hear your thoughts on this series and respectfully discuss it further in future episodes!

A most awkward episode in which your humble host stumbles and fumbles his way toward x-plaining how he feels this issue fell a bit short.  Marvel at my ability to ride the fence in attempt to not inadvertently insult anybody!

An important issue and an important discussion... that kinda misses the mark, and is priced WAY out of whack at $10 USD.  For better or worse, we're going to talk all about it.

Also: Mailbag, some news, and (since this IS the July Finale) the X-Book Sales Charts for April, 2021!

The Hellfire Gala rolls on, and Betsy Britain and the Gang engage in some ridiculous global politics, Rictor broods, and one of our team members is lucky enough to escape this book!

You WILL believe that a Coven of Witches can impact the global landscape... or not, but you'll see it either way.

Welcome, friends... to, hands down, the most difficult episode of X-Lapsed I've ever done!  If you've been following this show for any length of time, you'll know I really don't like being negative about our books... but, this one... hoo boy.  I literally almost threw up the white flag.

I feel like I need to publicly apologize to Fallen Angels, Empyre: X-Men, the Broo King Egg story, X-Men #12 and #14 being the same damn book, and even X-Men: Curse of the Man-Thing... because, those were all a dream compared to this!

On a positive note... if you can make it through my negativity long enough - we've got some great mailbag discussion to close out!

Welcome back, Trade-Waiters!

For our third compilation/anthology episode - we're taking a look at the difficult second issues of each of our DoX launch books, in which they all sorta go their own way.  I gotta wonder, while incredibly convenient... was this a satisfying read if you were following along via the anthology trades?

Anyways, in the wake of the apparent assassination last time out, Krakoa is... well, I would say "high alert", but nah, they're all still dancing around that bonfire like nothing even happened.

The Summers's's's have an outing that introduces the Creepy Summoner, Betsy is Captain Britain, Call Me Kate gets coronated, the New Mutants annoy the Starjammers, Quentin Quire smells like Axe Bodyspray, and Fallen Angels... exists.

If these compilation episodes are the first time you're diving into the X-Lapsed Universe - I'd love to hear from you!

Today's is a most malicious issue of Excalibur... which, thank whoever's listening, does not take place in Otherworld!  It does have a Betsy/Kwannon team-up though... which is something that's getting a bit long in the tooth itself, innit?

We're going to be learning a lot about Malice McMallister... and talking about some iffy-Resurrection Protocol shenanigans.

Also: Great Mailbag
