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!

This is one'a those "good news/bad news" situations... as, this anthology includes the first issue of the incredible Way of X series, buuuuuuuut it also kicks off X-Corp.

Also, Gerry Duggan remembers that Storm is a part of the Marauders cast just long enough to throw her a going-away party!  Did you know, dear listener, that Storm is just as dangerous without her powers?  Well, if not -- ya will!

Plus, with cancellation on the horizon X-Factor hits heavy truncation mode... doing its damnedest to get its story told... before the mystical axe comes swingin'!

All'at, plus all my usual nonsense!  If you miss my content from a time where I was still delusional enough to think anybody actually wanted it -- the Collecteds are for you!

It's a most bittersweet day here at X-Lapsed... as we wrap up the Way of X volume (but thankfully, not its story!).

Here we tackle and deconstruct the Third Krakoan Law "Respect this Sacred Land", discuss the mundanity of Mutant Death, and chat up the Onslaughtian Revelations we are gifted with.  This is (was) a wonderful series... and I am going to miss it dearly.

Also - Mailbag and Shout-Outs, Oh My!

In what might be the penultimate issue (but not penultimate chapter) of Way of X, we get the x-pected levels of amazingness from Spurrier and Quinn.  Awesome character work, and further x-ploration of the Krakoan Laws.

I tell ya what... at the risk of sounding crass - Way of X is the kind of book I just wanna sit back and let have its WAY with me!  If you're not reading this... you should be!

Also: Great Mailbag, This Week in X, and Shout-Outs!

If we were using Marvels Legacy Numbering, this would be X-Lapsed LGY#275!

And to commemorate, we're discussing one of the best books in the line!  Today, as Nightcrawler recovers from a raging hangover, he (and we) get a lesson in how Making More Mutants might not be the best "way" forward for the nation of Krakoa.

Also, some psychic-sexytime facilitated by Legion, and an appearance from a character from the Joe Casey era... and no, I'm not talking about Warp Savant!  It's a great issue... and a really fun conversation I had with myself - I'd love to hear your thoughts as well!

It's my favorite day of the X-Lapsed Month... Way of X day!

After reading the first issue of this series, I was sure nothing could ever top it... and then they went and DID!  A truly wonderful issue, indeed - listen to me gush over it for over a half hour!

If you only listen to one episode of X-Lapsed today... this should be it!

Folks, we have finally arrived at Way of X... our first "shoe drop" issue in quite some time.  It reads like something straight out of our very own Mailbag, and I cannot wait for more!

Nightcrawler is our POV character... and I can't think of anyone better to question the fact that... nobody else seems to question the goings on around Krakoa!

Plus: X-Cellent Mailbag... including our first ever "Day and Date" missive covering the very issue we're discussing here today!
