June 20, 2022376 – Moore of This
Art by David Wynne. Wanna buy the original? Drop him a line!
In which we begin John Francis Moore’s run on X-Force; Latveria is less fun without Doctor Doom; there may still be a tiny clone of Meltdown running around; Forearm is a good pal; Marvel Asgard is a realm of crossover fan fiction; and you should totally watch both Our Flag Means Death and Doom Patrol.

June 13, 2022375 – One Thousand Kicks to the Face
In which there is definitely a wrong way to enjoy your comics; Storm could probably use a more secure storage system; the Externals need more camp; and Joseph makes some valid points.

Art by David Wynne. Wanna buy the original? Drop him a line!
