What's (no longer) Eating Neena Thurman?

Today, after a short stint in [dead], we welcome Domino back to the X-Force fold -- only, she's a little bit different than last we left her. For one, well - she's alive, but for another - she's no longer tormented by all of the things she suffered toward the end of her previous life. We will be asking questions...

Also: More great listener mail... and a whole lot of my babbling! It's a fun show as usual, I hope you'll decide to join us!

X-Lapsed is back in Otherworld... welp, it was nice while it lasted, eh?

Today's issue takes us toward the Starlight Citadel so Betsy Britain can find out why she has been forsaken by the place - after all, she is Captain Britain... stands to reason she ought to be able to visit the place where the Captain Britain Corps used to hang out, no?

Also: Great listener mail - more discussion of the controversial Crucible... and perhaps the even more controversial, Fallen Angels miniseries!

Stop me if you heard this one before - in today's issue, our heroes head over to a Russian-ish country that doesn't recognize Krakoa as a sovereign nation.

Yeah, it's that again - but, at least this time out we get a new reality-warping mutant to deal with, and get to see some of the weirdos from the Mutant Liberation Front!

Also: X-Cellent listener mail, including a missive that isn't totally on board with the HoXPoXDoXSoX direction! Lotsa meat on the bone today - I hope you'll join us for the fun and discussion!

You ever have... a dream of falling? Well, Gabriel Summers does... just about every night, so how about we try and catch up with him for a minute (and only a minute)? The main focus of today's issue and episode will be, for lack of a better term - brood banging. Hope you're wearing gloves.

Also: Great listener mail, where we discuss the inorganic nature of the relationships among the Amalgamated Young Mutants of Krakoa, LLC - and the utter madness that is Major X!

Wave Two rolls on with Dawn of X's second solo-ongoing - Cable!

Today we join him as he beats up Wolverine, and removes a thorn from the paw of an ancient beast -- and maybe becomes a Spaceknight because of it! It's a fun story, and a good time - I hope you'll join us!

Also: Our usual x-cellent listener mail, and more of me waxing on about "broken toys" (please listen anyway!)
