In which we wrap up John Francis Moore’s run on X-Force; the Demon Bear returns (kinda); four Moonstars are not in fact better than one; the Queen of Star Swords is an extremely rad villain; and X-Force takes a very contained multiversal tour.

January 20, 2025474 – Giant-Size Special #13 (feat. Anthony Oliveira)
Classic (x2). (Warlock #2)
In which the Warlock ongoing series is fun, and fun is good; people should maybe leave Doug Ramsey’s grave alone; Tony Stark is probably not in touch with the Indigo Girls; the heroes skate awfully close to the “no killing” line; Bastion gets exhumed, rehumed, and re-exhumed; you should really read the Avengers Academy Infinity Comic; and you remain the best listeners of any podcast, ever.

December 30, 2024473 – The Baker’s Dozen (The Twelve, Part Three)

December 23, 2024472 – Leave Room for Magneto (The Twelve, Part Two)
In which the Twelve should really be twelve chapters long; Archangel has issues; we continue to bemoan the absence of captions; the X-Men ditch their crossover event for a side quest; Magneto is Genosha’s official chaperone; and we would absolutely elect Emma Frost to a school board.

December 16, 2024471 – Eyebrows and Powers (The Twelve: Part One)
Survival of the Toothiest (Cable #75)

November 25, 2024469 – Killed by Death
In which the Shattering officially concludes; you can’t swoop over the phone; toddlers are engines of pure chaos; the X-Men do some processing; and we are mildly scandalized by the absence of footnotes.
