Going a bit (or maybe more) off the beaten X-Path today, to discuss the first of three issues of Runaways (vol.5) we'll be covering on the program. We've got Wolverine and Pixie pullin' a rescue... but, what happens when the rescuee (Molly Hayes) doesn't even realize she'd asked for help?

Plus: Some Great Mailbag!

Welcome to the HoXPoXDoXSoXRoX King in Black cash-in one-shot. If we used to refer to certain Crisis on Infinite Earths tie-ins as "Red Sky Crossovers", I suppose we can call this a "Symbiote Dragon Sky Crossover".

Here, the Marauders very nearly get involved with the main King in Black story (rescuing the Cyclops Who Laughs and the Storm Who Laughs)... before being distracted by a passing boat.

In today's issue, Call Me Jubes' kids hit the caves under Central Park to track down the entity who dunnit to Face. Imagine their shock when they discover it's someone they already know! I'd say that's a spoiler... if the cover of this issue didn't already spoil it!

Also: A focus on Bling! and why she's so adamant on becoming an X-Man - and Quentin Quire ducks out of a group hug!

In this segment for Episode Two, Jesse (@stiznarkey) and I have got TWO issues of Excalibur to cover! For everyone who's tired of talking about Otherworld in our mainline X-Lapsed program (okay, maybe I'm the only one tired of that) - here's some more!

On the plus side, this is Alan Davis Otherworld... which is far more whimsical and less up its own butt than anything we see nowadays.

Also: Jesse's in the hot-seat for the dreaded Pod-File! Who would play him in a movie about his life? Hit play and find out today!
