Two issues in, and the CoTA kids are already in repeats!

In this very similar to the first issue issue... the CoTAs face off against the Hell's Belles... are approached by some Krakoans about going "home"... and stand longingly in front of the Coney Island Krakoan Gateway!

Hey, but the Avengers show up for two pages... so there's that!

Plus: Great Mailbag, and a F.A. Comics History piece on the many, many, many appearances of The Hell's Belles!

Today's is a most malicious issue of Excalibur... which, thank whoever's listening, does not take place in Otherworld!  It does have a Betsy/Kwannon team-up though... which is something that's getting a bit long in the tooth itself, innit?

We're going to be learning a lot about Malice McMallister... and talking about some iffy-Resurrection Protocol shenanigans.

Also: Great Mailbag

Also Also: Reign of X Summer of Bloat News!

Also Also Also: A Brand-New Segment - F.A. Comics History, where we're going to cover the quick and dirty on Malice!

Welcome to Marvel Legacy, Gang!  We're back to our Legacy Numbering and everything... and by "everything", I mean... well, that's basically it.  Nothing else about this screams "legacy", but... we can't have everything, now can we?

Here, as Generation X barrels toward its conclusion, we're seeing all of our main story threads converge in a most convenient way.  We've got two issue-sodes left after this!

Wassup, Trade-Waiters!  The Collected X-Lapsed continues its journey through the post-HoX/PoX era with a look at the first volume of the Dawn of X Anthology Collections.  These anthologies are a fantastic way to keep up-to-date on all things (current year) X, and are something your humble host gives Marvel two thumbs up for coming up with (keep in mind, my thumbs up and a dollar might buy you a cuppa coffee at McDonalds).

Today we're diving deep on all of the Dawn of X, Wave One, Number Ones... I hope we survive the x-perience!

If you're new to X-Lapsed, and are using these collected editions to dip your toe in - please reach out, I'd love to hear from you!
