Celebrating 30 Years of X-Force by sharing a compiled version of my three or so hour conversation with myself regarding 2019's sorta-kinda controversial miniseries (until people forgot it was still a thing) - Major X! I discuss my roots in Liefeld fandom, what early 90's comics meant (and continue to mean) to me... and then, we get into it!
This is a very up and down little outing, so strap in - it's going to be a bumpy ride!

As news begins to trickle in regarding the upcoming INFERNO event, The Collected X-Lapsed is inadvertently relevant (well, as relevant as it can be) - as this compilation episode contains the "shoe-drop" issue of X-Men wherein we all learn of Mystique's designs on our Island Nation! Also: Kitty goes for an x-tended swim in Marauders, Fallen Angels mercifully ends, and Beast gets even nastier over in X-Force!
All that, as well as the always x-cellent Mailbags and the normal amounts of my marblemouthed nonsense! If you're just now discovering X-Lapsed via these "collected editions", please let me know!

In which the Hellfire Gala continues... and I talk myself in circles trying to figure out how to "fix" the Beast! Our favorite sociopathic mad scientist might just have veered a little too deep into straightforward supervillainy at this point... where only a "deus ex cerebro" can save him! I'll talk all about it... after I kvetch a bit about the rampant spoilers for everything-X overflowing on Social Media!
Also: Great Mailbag, wherein I get the opportunity to wax nostalgic over my days on USENET while "fanboying " out over Paul O'Brien from the X-Axis and House to Astonish!

We are cordially invited to the Hellfire Gala... and so, if you can find something outrageous and/or stupid enough to wear - I invite you to be my date!
Today we kick things off with sort of a bird's eye view on the event... it's a tough issue to analyze, since so many of the story threads will be fleshed out as we proceed... and so, this is mostly a recitation of events with very little in the way of analysis and editorializing.
But that's not all! Come for the Gala, stay for the x-tended Mailbag Segment!

On the eve of the Hellfire Gala, our flagship book (in its penultimate issue) finally decides to advance the main story of this era!
Remember Nimrod? Remember Orchis? Remember Mystique threatening to burn everything down? Well - it's finally time to start moving these elements forward - and it looks like it's all headed to INFERNO
... but, ya know... first, a fashion show.

Today we continue our discussion regarding a budding Krakoan "class system" when certain rules are bent for one of the more connected members of society...
We're headed back to the Crucible... this time to "make whole" a Mutant who... still has their powers? Hmm... We've got a lot to talk about!

Wolverine is... still fighting Vampires? Ya kidding me? Don't we have a Gala to prepare for or something?
This time out Cranky Chris complains about this story that refuses to end... and wonders how much longer it's going to go. Oh yeah, we also go to friggin Otherworld for the third time this month, so I'll complain about that too!
At least there's our always X-Cellent Mailbag... and our "This Week in X" segments!

Celebrating FIVE YEARS of Chris and Reggie with a compilation of our first "big" project together! If you've ever wanted to listen to our Comics Code Authority series... but found the Archives to be too daunting (which they are!), here is a one-stop shop for nearly eight-hours of post-war comics chatter.
If all you know about the CCA is "Frederic Wertham did it!", I invite you to give this a listen, because ol' Doc W. is only a itty bitty part of the package! We actually READ Seduction of the Innocent, went line-by-line through the 1954 Senate Subcommittee hearings on Juvenile Delinquency, deep-dive on its main architect, Senator Estes Kefauver, go through all permutations of the Code while it was still relevant, and end with something of an op-ed on the current post-Code comics landscape.
I hope you enjoy!

Stepping away from our regular Dawn of X storyline... due to a dramatic event that occurs in the sixth issue of one of our ongoings, we're taking a look at the four-part X-Men + Fantastic Four miniseries, which your humble host was absolutely chomping at the bit for. Marvel must've known that, as they wasted very little time rendering the entire thing moot by de-Mutantifying Franklin Richards!
In todays Collected Edition, we'll discuss all four parts of the event miniseries as well as the issue of Fantastic Four where it's revealed that Franklin Richards isn't... and never, ever was... a Mutant!
This compilation also includes the landmark 50th episode of X-Lapsed, wherein I spend a good half hour or so being wildly self-indulgent in reflecting on my time in audio comics commentary.
