Welcome true believers to X-Men Horoscopes where each week our host Lodro Rinzler is in conversation with a special guest to discuss the X-Men issue that aligns with a significant month and year from their life and what that issue reveals about their future.

This week we have the incredible opportunity to sit down with THE JOE KELLY who many listeners will know from his awesome run writing X-Men and Deadpool in the 90s. We go in-depth about those runs, his deep love of Maggot, the story of how he quit Marvel and a preview of what's to come in his current era writing Spider-Man.

Also in this episode:

Joe Kelly is a critically acclaimed comic book writer known for his emotionally resonant storytelling and genre-defying creativity. Rising to prominence in the late 1990s with his influential run on Deadpool, Joe has since left his mark on major titles such as Daredevil, X-Men, and Spider-Man. As a founding member of the Man of Action collective, he co-created the globally popular Ben 10 and Generator Rex animated series. His work often blends humor, heart, and high stakes, with creator-owned projects like I Kill Giants—adapted into a feature film—cementing his reputation as a writer unafraid to tackle profound emotional themes through fantastical narratives.
