Today's episode of X-Lapsed takes us a bit off the beaten path inasfar as our Dawn of X coverage has gone... and right into your humble host's own personal X-Fan wheelhouse! Today's issue was written by Fabian Nicieza, who loomed large in the X-Braintrust when I was just finding my footing in the franchise... and who really informed my take on what the X-Men are. Mr. Nicieza is also, in a roundabout way, responsible for my becoming pals with a real good buddy of mine - and I'll tell ya how today!

Also: More Mailbag - and some Ecks of Tens housekeeping!

That beeping sound you hear is a dump truck... backing up, about to drop about 5000 lbs. of exposition right on top of us - and, unfortunately, all we've got are these tiny li'l 5 lb. bags!

It's everything you wanted to know about Arakko... but never knew you were supposed to ask! #EcksofTens can't come quick enough!

A somewhat Giant-Sized episode to discuss a Giant-Size issue... wherein we barely talk about the comic, because - well, not a whole heckuva lot happens that's worth talking about!

There IS however an X-Tended and X-Cellent Mailbag segment, wherein we will discuss some eXLapsedination theories, chat up some divisive books, and ask some much-needed questions about clones and the Resurrection Protocols! We'd love it if you joined us!
