When Kid Cable Met Deadpool (I think...)!

In today's issue and episode, Young Nate has to check in with the current King of Staten Island for some "body work".  It's far funnier than I'm making it sound, believe me.

Also: Some great listener mail, featuring two takes on the funeral and return of Call Me Kate in Marauders #11!  It's some great discussion - hope you'll decide to be a part of it!

From Claremont to Claremont, Episode 1a: X-Men (vol.2) #1 (1991)

From Claremont to Claremont: An X-Men Podcast
Episode 1A

X-Men (vol.2) #1 (October, 1991)

Inks - Scott Williams

Cover Price: $3.95/$1.00

Due to popular demand (of a small handful of folks who expressed interest in listening to From Claremont to Claremont, but without the need to fill up their entire device with a 10-14 hour file), I've decided to keep up with our FCTC Segments -- starting with the big one, the Guinness World Record holding X-Men (vol.2) #1 (October, 1991).

For the new book, I'm joined by my friend Jody Yerdon (@regalfan) to discuss all the goings on in and out of the book.  Jody will also share with us his "Secret Origin" both regarding the X-Men and comics in general.

It's a fun conversation... I hope you decide to hop on board the #FCTCXMen train!

Happy New Year, Friends!  How's bout we celebrate by hitting up some dive bar in the Great White North with our titular hero?  Hopefully we don't inadvertently wind up stumbling into a meeting of an anti-mutant group!  Nah, nothing like 's gonna happen... right?  We'd probably wind up running into a coven of vampires first...

X-Lapsed, Episode 092 - Excalibur #11 (2020)

X-Lapsed, Episode Ninety Two

Today we look at an issue of Excalibur that sorta-kinda feels like bunch of unfinished scenes all smooshed together to fit a standard-sized comic book.  That doesn't mean it's not a good time... it's just, a bit disjointed.  Maybe it's the Otherworld effect?  Sure, let's go with that!

Also: More X-Cellent Listener Mail!

The Path to #EcksofTens rolls on... and we start getting some swords into hands!  If you're excited for the big ol' slobberknocker between Colossus and Omega Red that the cover suggests then... hoo boy, you're gonna love this one!

In addition to the story, I talk a lot about X-Force tropes... and why the overreliance on them is kind of dragging these issues down a peg for me.

Also: Great listener mail!

We're officially on the "Path to" X of Swords - Follow along with all the fun with #EcksofTens

We've still got a few problems to solve before we hop into crossover mode, however... and one of 'em won't stop telling us to "call her Kate".  With today's comic, we will, by hook or by crook, put that problem behind us.  How will they do it?  Well, maybe they'll finally remember Kitty's entire mutant gimmick?

Also: Some excellent feedback in the mailbag - including some discussion of The Crucible from X-Men (vol.5) #7!  It's a great time as always - I hope you decide to join us!
