It is time for episode 3 of Mandatory Marvel & DC, a brand new show for the Comics In Motion network that looks back at the very biggest and best stories from the annals of the Big 2 - Marvel and DC!

Each episode, Max Byrne will be joined by a special guest to enjoy a chat about that week's subject matter, talking about what we love about these top tier titles!

For this third instalment, we look back at the masterpiece that is X-Men - God Loves, Man Kills. Released as a graphic novel in 1982, this seminal work by Chris Claremont and Brent Anderson has never felt more relevant than it does today. Serving as the primary inspiration for the 2003 movie X-Men 2, this is a book that puts a spotlight on bigotry, racism, prejudice and religion. An awful lot to unpack within the pages of this classic title.

This week, Max is joined by the amazing Tony Farina, host of the amazing Indie Comics Spotlight show and an incredibly prolific writer, as we discuss the themes of this masterpiece comic book title.
