Well, I couldn't put it off any longer... it's time for us to dip back into Otherworld for the follow-up (miniseries, I hope) to Excalibur (vol.4) -- Knights of X!

This time out, Betsy Britain opens a book and whisks a bunch of her pals away to the boring place.  And, well, that's about it.  At least it's very pretty to look at!

Finally fleshing out the Marsarakkii!

In the follow-up to S.W.O.R.D. (vol.2), Al Ewing starts spillin' the beans on all things Arakki.  Seeds are planted for a team of Martian X-Men... as well as an All-New, All-Different... Brotherhood?!  It's off to a great start, and I hope you'll join me for the fun.

Also: I drone on more about Beast in the Mailbag + an x-tended rant about Marvel's current publishing and distribution woes

In Part Two of our X-Force "double-header", we see Frasier and Lilith arguing before the Quiet Council about whether or not they ought to bring back Omega Red (already), while Forge finds himself attacked by the Hentai Helmet!

It's a fun issue, and a better-than-decent return to the x-ploits of our Mutant CIA.  I hope you decide to check it out!

A current year X-Annual that's... worth reading?!  Are you kidding me?

Today we kick off our X-Force "double-header", ushering in the Mutant CIA's Destiny of X Era with a far better than expected Annual.  The Strike Force takes the fight to Orchis... and narrowly sidesteps Annual-itis, where they're forced to face their weaknesses.

We get some fun banter between Beast and Emma Frost to boot!

Plus: The return of the MIGHTY X-Lapsed Mailbag!  It's a good time, I hope you'll join me!

Kicking off the second volume of Marauders proper with... a trip into Shi'ar Space?  Oh, c'mon...

That's right, we open with a big ol' dollop of "Chrystonite"... but, I guess at least it's not Otherworld.  Listen to me raspily kvetch about unnatural-sounding dialogue and the bloat of the Destiny of X line... or, please listen in spite of all that!

After quite the delay, we're about to hop back into The Pit with Sabretooth and his Uncanny eXiles!

This time out, we get more questions than answers... thankfully, they're questions we're interested in seeing play out!  Sabretooth raises some inconvenient truths about the Krakoan Culture, really showing what a house of cards, it actually is!

A very interesting series that X-Lapsed highly recommends you check out!

It's a brand-new era... with your same old host, now with extra Covid!

It's time for us all to be flies on the wall to witness the machinations and maneuvering of the Quiet Council... which is somehow some of the most interesting X-Stuffs to come down the pike yet!

An excellent start to the Destiny of X era... and an issue I can't wait to hear your thoughts on!
