Wait... what?  What's a Gwenpool doing in our X-Lapsed?

I promise, friends, this will all make sense in the telling - as it has some wonderful and surprising Krakoan ramifications.  In fact, even taking the X-ness out of this series, this is a heckuva lot of fun... and is highly recommended by your humble host!

If you don't know Gwenpool... like I didn't... you're gonna wanna check this one out!

When are the X-Men not the X-Men?

Well, it looks like they haven't been since we started this little project... nice of them to finally let us know!  We're going to talk a lot about what it means to be an X-Man vs. what it means to be a Krakoan today.

Also, there's going to be a bit of sword-fighting... 

  • Apocalypse vs. Genesis

Plus: Our always x-cellent and x-citing mailbag, chock full of missives from our x-tended x-lapsed x-family!

In our penultimate episode, we take a look at the sort of underwhelming Cable "eulogy" issue... which features two stories.  First we follow Hope and Jean around the globe to shut down some safe houses... then we get a handful of pages reminding us what a devoted husband and father Cyclops was (and no, I'm not joking!).

It's a fun time as always - I sure hope you'll join us!

This time out, we're featuring all three MCP issues cover-dated October, 1991 - which see Wolverine's first tangles with Cyber and also features adventures from other X-Men (and X-Adjacents) Beast and Firestar!
