The Collected X-Lapsed, Episode 14 - Dawn of X, Volume 11 (2021)
This is the compilation I've both been looking forward to AND dreading... ya see, this is our "audit" episode!
Since between Amazon, Marvel, Comixology, and the Marvel Wikia... NOBODY can keep straight which issues appear in each collection - we've been forced to dig a bit deeper, and figure out x-actly where we stood. As such, this will be a bit of a shorter installment, as we've already covered two of the issues that were actually a part of this volume! Those issues were Excalibur (vol.4) #10, and the second-half of Wolverine (vol.7) #1. What remains is a pair of issues from both New Mutants (vol.4) and Hellions! Approximately half of those issues will be quite fun to discuss!

The Essential X-Lapsed, Episode 022 - X-Men #15 (1965)
It's time for the middle chapter of the Sensational Sentinel Saga -- and also, for the original of the Barefoot Bouncing Blue-Suited Beast! Prepare to be... whelmed!
Also - the always interesting "Let's Visit With the X-Men" letters page, the Bullpen Bulletins, the MIGHTY Marvel Checklist... and more MMMS content than anyone could *possibly* ever want!
Tune in, you'll love it!

The Essential X-Lapsed, Episode 021 - X-Men #14 (1965)
Kicking off our three-part Sentinels Saga - with some FEAR AND HATE!
What can the X-Men do when noted anthropologist Bolivar Trask takes a page out of J. Jonah Jameson's book to assert that Mutants are a MENACE? Well, their creepy, bald leader might decide to engage in a televised debate with him... which, might not go according to plan!
It's a fun story... and I hope you'll join me for it!
Also: The original Letters Pages, the OFFICIAL Marvel Bullpen Bulletins (featuring plenty - ie. too much - chatter on the Merry Marvel Marching Society), and the MIGHTY Marvel Checklist for cover-date November, 1965!

The Essential X-Lapsed, Episode 020 - Fantastic Four Annual #3 (1965)
Welcome friends, to a most blessed event - it's the Wedding of Sue Storm and Reed Richards, and we're all invited... along with many of the movers and shakers of the Marvel Universe in its relative infancy! Without hyperbole, this might just be the most important Marvel comic of its time!
The X-Men not only show up... but get a few good shots in as well! It's the first time I'm reading this in decades, so it's basically new to me!

The Essential X-Lapsed, Episode 019 - X-Men #13 (1965)
Wrapping up our first two-part X-Men story - with the (final?) fate of the Juggernaut! Listen as ol' Cain Marko gets his helmet ripped off for the first time!
Also: The always amusing 1965 X-Men Letters Page - where you can find out how much it'll cost ya to join the Merry Marvel Marching Society!

The Essential X-Lapsed, Episode 018 - X-Men #12 (1965)
What terror lurks outside of X-Mansion... and why in the world did Cerebro pick up on it?!
It's the first appearance of Professor X's stepbrother, the Juggernaut... and the first time we find out (to my knowledge) that the Xavier's first name is Charles! It's a fun one... that, reading as an adult... almost makes me sympathize for the villain!
Plus: A pretty hilarious Silver-Age Letters Page, everything Marvel for (cover-date) July, 1965 - and a plea from your humble host for dissenting opinions to be shared on the show... rather than on review aggregates that can actually HURT the show!
